Exam question An amplifier have the following open-loop gain: Draw a detailed asymptotic bode-diagram for the open-loop gain. Both the amplitude and phase should be clearly visualized. (2p) What is the gain-bandwidth product for the amplifier? (1p) What is the lowest amplification the amplifier can be used (AVmin), without any stabilization network assuming 45˚ phase margin, (ΦM). (2p) Stabilize the amplifier with a dominant pole compensation so that it can be useful as a 20 dB amplifier with ΦM>45˚. Muhammad Amir Yousaf

So amplifier is stable for Acl >= 40dB Aol and phase response after compensation Aol 100db -45 80 -90 After compensation, we get -135degree phase shift at 1MHz -135 60 40 -180 Gain at 1MHz is 40dB. This means that the feedback factor must be atleast -40dB to get Loop Gain(AolB) = 0db a@ 1MHz 20 -225 So amplifier is stable for Acl >= 40dB -270 Muhammad Amir Yousaf 10 100 1K 10K 100K 1M 1M 10M
But our requirement was to make it stable for 20dB amplification. Still not achieved…… Muhammad Amir Yousaf
Lead Compensation Here is the solution. This factor can be adjusted for lower gain in Lead compensation ciruits Muhammad Amir Yousaf
Amplifier should be stabilized with 20dB gain. Amplifier should be stabilized with 20dB gain. 80 -45 Aol 60 -90 40 -135 -180 20 Compensation circuit Gain Response is adjusted by selecting proper values of R1,R2 -225 -20 -270 Muhammad Amir Yousaf 10 100 1K 10K 100K 1M 1M 10M
