  • Abstract
    The mechanism of Miller compensation for two-stage operational amplifiers is modified. The analysis shows that both dominant and nondominant poles are with the first stage of the opamp after compensation; the second stage pole is canceled by a Miller zero. That is, the poles do not split during the frequency compensation, as previously thought. This improved understanding results in a new conceptual compensation circuit, which improves the performance of the two-stage op amps
