Relationship Between Frequency Response and Settling Time of Operational Amplifiers.

摘要

The effects of pole-zero pairs (doublets) on the frequency response and settling time of operational amplifiers are explored using analytical techniques and computer simulation. It is shown that doublets which produce only minor changes in circuit frequency response can produce major changes in settling time. The importance of doublet spacing and frequency are examined. It is shown that settling time always improves as doublet spacing is reduced whereas the effect of doublet frequency is different for 0.1 and 0.01 percent error bands. Finally it is shown that simple analytical formulas can be used to estimate the influence of frequency doublets on amplifier settling time. (Author)
