3.2 Open Loop Gain and Stability Compensation
3.2.1 Discussion
The CS3011 and CS3012 achieve ultra-high open
loop gain. Figure 15 il lustrates the ampl ifier in a
non-inverting gain configuration. Th e ope n lo op
gain and phase plo ts indicate that the amplifier is
stable for closed-loop gains less than 50 V/V. For
a gain of 50, the phase margin is between 40° and
60° de pending upon the load ing conditions. As
shown in Figure 16 on page 11, the op amphas an
input ca pacitance at the + and – signal input s of
typically 50 pF. This capacitance adds an addition-
al pole in the loop gain transfer function at a fre-
quency of f = 1/(2πR*C_in) where R is t he para llel
combination of R1 and R2 (R1 || R2). A higher val-
ue for R produces a pole at a lower frequency, thus
reducing the phase margin. R1 is recommended to
be less than or equal to 100 ohms, which results in
a pole at 30 MHz or higher. If a higher value of R1
is desired, a compensation capacitor (C2) should
be added in parallel with R2. C2 should be chosen
such that R2*C2 ≥ R1*C_in.
