COMPENSATING FOR INPUT CAPACITANCE WHEN USING LARGE VALUE FEEDBACK
RESISTORS
When using very large value feedback resistors, (usually > 500 kΩ) the large feed back resistance can react with
the input capacitance due to transducers, photo diodes, and circuit board parasitics to reduce phase margins.
The effect of input capacitance can be compensated for by adding a feedback capacitor. The feedback capacitor
(as in Figure 66), C
f
is first estimated by:
(1)
or
R
1
C
IN
≤ R
2
C
f
(2)
which typically provides significant overcompensation.
Printed circuit board stray capacitance may be larger or smaller than that of a breadboard, so the actual optimum
value for C
F
may be different. The values of C
F
should be checked on the actual circuit. (Refer to the LMC660
quad CMOS amplifier data sheet for a more detailed discussion.)
