Simple pole calculations for 2-stage op amp
Since the poles of the 2-stage op amp must be widely
separated, a simple calculation of the poles from the
characteristic polynomial is possible.
Assume p1 and p2 are the poles and p1 << p2
D(s)=s2+a1s+a0
but
D(s)=(s+p1)(s+p2)=s2+s(p1+p2)+p1p2 s2 + p2s + p1p2
determines p2
determines p1
thus
p2=-a1 and p1 = -a0/a1

Compensation
Compensation (alt Frequency Compensation) is the
manipulation of the poles and/or zeros of the open-loop
amplifier so that when feedback is applied, the closed-loop
amplifier will perform acceptably
Note this definition does not mention stability, positive
feedback, negative feedback, phase margin, or oscillation.
Note that acceptable performance is strictly determined by
the user in the context of the specific application

Compensation
• Often Phase Margin or Gain Margin criteria are used instead of pole Q
criteria when compensating amplifiers
(for historical reasons but must still be conversant with this approach)
• Nyquist plots are an alternative stability criteria that is used some in
the design of amplifiers
• Phase Margin and Gain Margin criteria are directly related to the
Nyquist Plots
• Compensation requirements are stongly β dependent
β (s )N (s )D (s )(s )D F B
Compensation requirements usually determined by closed-loop pole locations:
Characteristic Polynomial obtained from denominator term of basic feedback equation
1+A s β s
A s β s defined to be the “loop gain” of a feedback amplifier

Nyquist Plots
The Nyquist Plot is a plot of the Loop Gain (Aβ) versus jω in the complex plane
for - ∞ < ω < ∞
Theorem: A system is stable iff the Nyquist Plot does not encircle the point
-1+j0.
Note: If there are multiple crossings of the real axis by the Nyquist Plot,
the term encirclement requires a formal definition that will not be presented
here

-1+j0 is the image of ALL poles
The Nyquist Plot is the image of the entire imaginary axis and separates
the image complex plane into two parts

Aβ plots change with different values of β
Often β is independent of frequency
in this case Aβ plot is just a shifted version of A
in this case phase of Aβ is equal to the phase of A
Instead of plotting Aβ, often plot |A| and phase of A and superimpose |β| and
phase of β to get gain and phase margins
do not need to replot |A| and phase of A to assess performance with different β

In general, the relationship between the phase margin and the
pole Q is dependent upon the order of the transfer function and on
the location of the zeros
In the special case that the open loop amplifier is second-order low-
pass, a closed form analytical relationship between pole Q and phase
margin exists and this is independent of A0 and β..

Compensation Summary
• Gain and phase margin performance often strongly dependent upon architecture
• Relationship between overshoot and ringing and phase margin were developed only for 2nd-order lowpass gain characteristics and differ dramatically for higher-order structures
• Absolute gain and phase margin criteria are not robust to changes in architecture or order
• It is often difficult to correctly “break the loop” to determine the loop gain Aβ with the correct loading on the loop (will discuss this more later)
