Exercise 7.1 Stability for a trans impedance amplifier configuration

a)


We now define an (angular) frequency ω1 = 1 R2C1

b)


An answer:
For a phase margin of 45°, the phase shift of each low pass transfer is 67.5°. With Ao 1 this cannot occur for |Aloop = 1. Hence: NO.

c)


An answer:
For a phase margin of 45°, the summed phase shift of the two low pass transfers is 135°. With ω0 ω1 this can occur for for an ω omega1, for a loop gain magnitude 1. Hence: YES.

d)


An answer:
For a phase margin of 45°, the summed phase shift of the two low pass transfers is 135°. With ω1 ω0 this can occur for for an ω omega0, for a loop gain magnitude 1. Hence: YES.

e)


An answer:

For the case that ω1 ω0:

ω ω0 Ao 1 + ω0 90° 1 1 + ω1 45° | 1 1 + ω1| 1 2 ω = ω1 = A0 2 ω0 A0 ω0

Using an asymptotic Bode plot, the 2 is easily lost. A graphical “derivation” would be similar to the plot below.
