8.2.1 Design Requirements
The design requirements are:
• Supply voltage: 30 V (±15 V)
• Capacitive loads: 100 pF, 1000 pF, 0.01 μF, 0.1 μF, and 1 μF
• Phase margin: 45° and 60°
8.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
Figure 42 shows a unity-gain buffer driving a capacitive load. Equation 1 shows the transfer function for the
circuit in Figure 42. Not shown in Figure 42 is the open-loop output resistance of the operational amplifier, R_o.

The transfer function in Equation 1 has a pole and a zero. The frequency of the pole (f_p) is determined by (R_o +
R_ISO) and C_LOAD. Components R_ISO and C_LOAD determine the frequency of the zero (f_z). A stable system is
obtained by selecting R_ISO such that the rate of closure (ROC) between the open-loop gain (A_OL) and 1/β is 20
dB/decade. Figure 42 depicts the concept. The 1/β curve for a unity-gain buffer is 0 dB.
