4.7 Typical Applications
4.7.1 POWER DRIVER WITH HIGH GAIN
Figure 4-13 shows a power driver with high gain
(1 + R
2
/R
1
). The MCP651/1S/2/3/4/5/9 op amp’s short
circuit current makes it possible to drive significant
loads. The calibrated input offset voltage supports
accurate response at high gains. R
3
should be small,
and equal to R
1
||R
2
, in order to minimize the bias
current induced offset.

4.7.2 OPTICAL DETECTOR AMPLIFIER
Figure 4-14 shows a transimpedance amplifier, using
the MCP651 op amp, in a photo detector circuit. The
photo detector is a capacitive current source. The op
amp’s input Common mode capacitance (5 pF, typical)
acts in parallel with C
D
. R
F
provides enough gain to
produce 10 mV at V
OUT
. C
F
stabilizes the gain and lim-
its the transimpedance bandwidth to about 1.1 MHz.
R
F
’s parasitic capacitance (e.g., 0.2 pF for a 0805
SMD) acts in parallel with C
F
.

4.7.3 H-BRIDGE DRIVER
Figure 4-15 shows the MCP652 dual op amp used as
a H-bridge driver. The load could be a speaker or a DC
motor.

This circuit automatically makes the noise gains (G
N
)
equal, when the gains are set properly, so that the
frequency responses match well (in magnitude and in
phase). Equation 4-11 shows how to calculate R
GT
and
R
GB
so that both op amps have the same DC gains;
G
DM
needs to be selected first.

Equation 4-12 gives the resulting Common mode and
Differential mode output voltages.
