3 The ideal opamp - definitions ideal opamp = a differential input, voltage controlled voltage source with very large open loop gain the ideal gain is frequency independent, but real gain can be modeled with a set of poles and zeros typically low pass behavior very large input resistance and near zero output resistance opamps with strictly capacitive loads can have large output resistance Operational Transconductance Amplifiers (OTA) often also called opamp the output may be single ended (referenced to ground) or differential single or symmetrical supply voltages out V a V V Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 3

4 The opamp a cascade of elementary stages the typical opamp architecture a differential amplifier followed by a high gain inverting stage and a voltage follower for low output impedance the voltage follower may be missing if the load is known to be strictly capacitive frequency compensation for closed loop stability probably required (more on this later) elementary amplifier stages subsequent V-I and I-V conversions most simple form the two stage opamp V-I I-V I-V cascade of elementary stages V-I Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 4

9 Frequency response of a second order system the effect of the feedback transmittance r on the magnitude response A 0 1 r A 0 decreases with r Overshoot of the frequency response at ω n complex poles under damped step response worst case stability for unity gain (r=1 and A 0 =1) lowest ξ for given a 0, ω p1 and ω p2 Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 9

10 Step response for unity gain feedback the time domain step response is calculated as damping of the oscillation amplitude depends on ξ V out ( t) 1 A( s) L s typically, if poles ω p1 and ω p2 are close to each other ξ<1 under damped system with fading oscillations of the step response n t 2 e 2 1 Vout ( t) 1 sin 1 arctan 2 n t 1 fading exponential oscillations with the period envelope depending on ω n and ξ since the sin function varies between -1 and 1 time domain overshoot around the unit step the overshoot and number of cycles until settling increases with a smaller ξ Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 10

11 Step response for unity gain feedback step response of the two stage opamp in unity gain feedback configuration optimal response the circuit is unusable as amplifier for small ξ due to the very long settling time the response stability depends on the phase margin (m φ ) optimal response for m φ =65 Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 11

12 closed loop gain for unity feedback: A( s) Stability and phase margin a( s) 1 a( s) What if denominator is 0??? a( s) 1 the closed loop gain approaches even for no input any perturbation is amplified with under damped transients sustained oscillations occur, feedback turns positive and system becomes unstable a( j) 1 Barkhausen's stability criteria: a( j) 180 a j 1 j p 1 p2 solve for ω f 0dB m 180 a j odb 180 arctan arctan 0dB 0dB p1 p2 Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 12

13 Pole locations and phase margin the relation between pole frequencies and f 0dB defines m φ and the stability of the step response This is what we need! f f p2 0dB m 45 f f p2 0dB m 45 f f p2 0dB m 45 Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 13

14 Frequency compensation need f p2 >f 0dB so that m φ >45 impossible to achieve by simply cascading a differential amplifier and a common source inverting amplifier f p 1 f p2 1 2 R C 1 2 R out1 5 C out 2 7 Typically: R C R out1 out 2 C 7 5 f p1 and f p2 are close to each other!!! We need to manipulate pole locations to separate f p1 and f p2 frequency compensation Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 14

15 Miller frequency compensation idea 1: push p 1 to lower frequencies by increasing C 5 must have very large values for a satisfactory m φ not practical for the integrated opamp idea 2: use the Miller effect to virtually increase C 5 practical solution since the gain of the second stage is usually large connect C M that emphasizes the capacitive shunt around the inverting second stage V Gm 1V in sc5v scm V Vout Rout1 Vout Gm2V sclvout scm V Vout Rout 2 0 Analog Integrated Circuits Fundamental building blocks Basic OTA/Opamp architectures 15
