High Voltage Amplifier
The amplifier is used for driving piezo stack actuator with DC coupled output, gain=100, and a maximum output voltage of 150V. There are two stages of amplifications: OP amp as a preamp, then a MOSFET (IRF630) following to reach high voltage. Finally, the output is buffered using a IRF630. Adjusting the 50k potentiometer (R11) can varying the output DC offset. Since it is for laboratory use, there is no any kind of protection circuit, it is important not to cable this amp with power on.
