Abstract: In
this paper, we consider passive compensation techniques
to enhance the bandwidth of current feedback operational
amplifier (CFOA) based finite gain non-inverting voltage
amplifier. The applicability of Bayard’s passive
compensation schemes using capacitors for CFOA based
non-inverting voltage amplifier is discussed. The use of
feedback capacitor alone for realizing Butterworth
response is shown to be not feasible. On other hand, the
use of both feedforward and feedback capacitor for
pole-zero cancellation is shown to improve the bandwidth
and the condition for the same has been derived. The use
of feedforward capacitor alone is shown to be useful for
achieving minimum phase error in the resulting frequency
response. The proposed compensation techniques are
attractive as they need one or two capacitors. The
two-pole model considering the current mirror pole and
the pole due to the output capacitance and resistance of
the CFOA at z output and input resistance at x terminal
have been considered in the analysis. The non-inverting
voltage amplifier circuits using passive compensation
techniques have been simulated in PSPICE using a
behavioral macro-model as well as that of a practical
macro-model of CFOA IC AD 844.
