Frequency Compensation Techniques for Low-Power Multistage Amplifiers

總結
High-gain and high-speed amplifiers are vital in analog circuits. Low-voltage design limits the structure of the amplifiers to change from cascode to cascade configuration. In addition, the stability as well as the bandwidth of the cascaded amplifiers are constrained by the existing frequency compensation techniques. The invented frequency compensation technique, damping-factor-control frequency compensation (DFCFC), is a novel technique that can substantially increase the stability and the bandwidth of cascaded amplifiers without an increase in power consumption.

The transient response in both the slew rate and the settling time are enhanced. Moreover, the power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) of the cascaded amplifiers is greatly improved by DFCFC. Experimental results on the comparison of a DFCFC amplifier to a conventional Miller compensation amplifier driving a 1nF capacitive load under the same power consumption show that the bandwidth and the slew rate can be increased by about 20 and 14 times respectively. The settling time is reduced by 9 times and the PSRR is enhanced by at least 23dB.
技術優勢
1. The invented technique can substantially increase the bandwidth, speed and transient performance of a 3-stage amplifier without an increase in the power consumption
2. It solves the problem on low-voltage high-speed design of amplifiers driving large capacitive load
3. It improves performance of commercial products such as low-dropout regulators in portable electronic devices and operational amplifiers
技術應用
