6 FAQs about [How to compensate capacitors]

What is the purpose of a compensation capacitor?

Objective of compensation is to achieve stable operation when negative feedback is applied around the op amp. Miller - Use of a capacitor feeding back around a high-gain, inverting stage. Miller capacitor only Miller capacitor with an unity-gain buffer to block the forward path through the compensation capacitor. Can eliminate the RHP zero.

Why do op amps need a compensation capacitor?

In addition, a better understanding of the internals of the op amp is achieved. The minor-loop feedback path created by the compensation capacitor (or the compensation network) allows the frequency response of the op-amp transfer function to be easily shaped.

How does a compensation capacitor affect frequency?

It is observed that as the size of the compensation capacitor is increased, the low-frequency pole location ω1 decreases in frequency, and the high-frequency pole ω2 increases in frequency. The poles appear to “split” in frequency.

What is the difference between a Miller capacitor and a feedforward capacitor?

Miller capacitor with an unity-gain buffer to block the forward path through the compensation capacitor. Can eliminate the RHP zero. Miller with a nulling resistor. Similar to Miller but with an added series resistance to gain control over the RHP zero. Feedforward - Bypassing a positive gain amplifier resulting in phase lead.

What is a good size capacitor for a low frequency circuit?

Reasonable sizes for the lengths are usually 1.5 to 10 times of the minimum length (while digital circuits usually use the minimum). For low-frequency applications, the gain is one of the most critical parameters. Note that compensation capacitor Cc can be treated open at low frequency.

What is a Miller capacitor?
