Analysing the Stability of Circuits Based on Operational Amplifiers by Using Frequency-Domain Simulations
Journal Title: Acta Technica Napocensis- Electronica-Telecomunicatii (Electronics and Telecommunications) - Year 2010, Vol 51, Issue 2
Abstract
This paper analyzes in detail two of the most popular methods of determining the loop gain of OpAmp-based feedback circuits through frequency-domain Spice simulations. The limitations of the simpler method – that involves breaking the feedback loop by inserting an independent voltage source with DC=0 and AC=1 – are highlighted in comparison with a more precise method, based on the Rosenstark theorem. The discussion encompasses all types of amplifiers: the traditional (V-V) OpAmp, the Current-Feedback OpAmp (CFB-OA), the transconductance OpAmp (OTA) and the Current – Current OpAmp with asymmetric inputs (such as a second-generation current conveyor). Recommendations are made based on analytical analysis and simulation results.
