CLC2011, CLC4011
In order to determine P , the power dissipated in the load
needs to be subtracted from the total power delivered by the
supplies.

The effective load resistor (Rload ) will need to include

Input Common Mode Voltage
The common mode input range extends to 250mV below
ground and to 250mV above Vs, in single supply operation.
Exceeding these values will not cause phase reversal.
However, if the input voltage exceeds the rails by more
than 0.5V, the input ESD devices will begin to conduct. The
output will stay at the rail during this overdrive condition. If
the absolute maximum input voltage (700mV beyond either
rail) is exceeded, externally limit the input current to 5mA
as shown in Figure 6.

These measurements are basic and are relatively easy to
perform with standard lab equipment. For design purposes
however, prior knowledge of actual signal levels and load
impedance is needed to determine the dissipated power.

Driving Capacitive Loads
Increased phase delay at the output due to capacitive loading
can cause ringing, peaking in the frequency response, and
The dynamic power is focused primarily within the output
stage driving the load. This value can be calculated as:

The CLC2011 is short circuit protected. However, this may
not guarantee that the maximum junction temperature
(+150°C) is not exceeded under all conditions. Figure 5
shows the maximum safe power dissipation in the package
vs. the ambient temperature for the packages available.
