- Control Theory, AC Analysis, & Compensation for Amplifiers with Feedback
- Many clarifications and corrections have been made, and important points added, in October, 2014 -
- Intuitively understand poles & zeros associated with circuit nodes.
- Easily find, understand, analyze, and modify poles & zeros.
- Fast, easy, methodical approach to compensating multi-pole/zero systems.
- Includes example compensating a bandgap reference built around an LDO-style 3-stage op-amp.
- Analyzes where to put compensation cap and how to minimize necessary cap size.
- Brief look at power supply rejection.
- Bandgap Reference Design & Layout
- Theory, design tips, several topologies, < 1V references, layout tips.
- Precision methods are discussed, but there are ways beyond this tutorial's scope to achieve ultra-high precision.
