If R1=R2=2kΩ and C=1μFFind ωz & ωp.

ωz = 1/CR1 = 500 rad/sec

ωp = 1/C(R1||R2) = 1000 rad/sec

ωz = 1/CR2 = 500 rad/sec

ωp = 1/C(R1+R2) = 250 rad/sec

Gain Function A(s)

A(s) = AMFL(s)FH(s)

• FL(s) & FH(s) are gain function in low & high

frequency bands and are dependent on

frequency

• At mid-band, the gain for ω L<< ω <<ωH

A(s) = AM

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/lec2-frequency-response 9/79

Gain Function A(s)• Mid-band gain is determined by analyzing amplifier

equivalent circuit with the assumption• Coupling and bypass capacitors are acting as a perfect short

circuit• Internal capacitors of the amplifier are acting as a perfect open

circuit

• The low frequency function FL(s) is determined by

analyzing amplifier equivalent circuit • Including Coupling and bypass capacitor but assuming

Internal capacitors of the amplifier as a perfect open circuit

• The High frequency function FH(s) is determined byanalyzing amplifier equivalent circuit

• Including Internal capacitors of the amplifier but assumingCoupling and bypass capacitor as a perfect short circuit

Open Circuit Time Constant for f H• If poles and zeros can be determined easily so

calculate f H

• If not simple to find poles & zero then use opencircuit time constant method.

• Consider one capacitor at a time while reducing

all other capacitance to zero – (open circuit) andsignal source to zero

Miller Theorem

Miller effect

7/27/2019 Lec2 Frequency Response

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/lec2-frequency-response 52/79

Miller effect• The miller effect is the effective multiplication of a impedance

across a negative gain device.

• Miller effect accounts for an increase in the equivalent inputcapacitance of an inverting voltage amplifier due to amplificationof capacitance between the input and output terminals.

• Although Miller effect normally refers to capacitance, anyimpedance connected between the input and another nodeexhibiting high gain can modify the amplifier input impedance viathe Miller effect.

• This increase in input capacitance is given by

• where Av

is the gain of the amplifier and C is the feedbackcapacitance

• The Miller effect was named after John Milton Miller When Miller published his work in 1920.

7/27/2019 Lec2 Frequency Response

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/lec2-frequency-response 53/79

Miller Effect

• As most amplifiers are inverting amplifiers (i.e. Av < 0) theeffective capacitance at the input is larger .

• For non-inverting amplifiers, the Miller effect results in anegative capacitor at the input of the amplifier (compareNegative impedance converter ).

• The circuit is also referred as a Capacitance Multiplier.

• The capacitance on the output is often neglected since it sees

C (1 − 1 / A v ) and amplifier outputs are typically low impedance.However if the amplifier has a high impedance output, such as if a gain stage is also the output stage, then this RC can have asignificant impact on the performance of the amplifier. This iswhen pole splitting techniques are used.

Pole splitting causes the pole next in frequency (usually anoutput pole) to move to a higher frequency. This pole movementincreases the stability of the amplifier and improves its stepresponse at the cost of decreased speed

• Miller theorem states that bridging impedance Z can be

replaced by two impedances: Z1 connected between node 1 and

ground and Z2 connected between node 2 and ground where

• Miller equivalent circuit is valid only as long as theconditions that existed in the network when ‘k’ wasdetermined are not-changed

• Miller theorem is very useful in determining the inputresistance and the gain of the amplifier.

• Miller equivalent circuit cannot be used directly todetermine the output resistance of an amplifier. It is dueto the fact that test source is applied to the outputterminal and input signal is eliminated – obviously itchanges the value of ‘k’.

OBSERVATIONS• The Miller replacement for

a negative feedback resultsin a smaller resistance [bya factor of (1-K)] at theinput.

• The multiplication of afeedback impedance by afactor (1-k) is referred as

Miller Multiplication or Miller Effect

Application of Miller Effect

7/27/2019 Lec2 Frequency Response

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/lec2-frequency-response 64/79

• If the feedback impedance is a capacitor ,thenthe Miller capacitance reflected across the inputterminal is .

• Therefore, connecting a capacitance from theinput to output is equivalent to connecting acapacitance

• Due to Miller effect, a small feedbackcapacitance appears across the input terminalsas a much larger equivalent capacitance with alarge gain (e.g. ).

• At high frequencies, this large capacitance has alow impedance that tends to short out the inputsignal

Analysis using Miller s Theorem

Since Cgd is small, the current through it will be much smaller

than that of the controlled source gmVgs.

Thus neglect the current through Cgd in determining the output voltage Vo.

To analyze this configuration, we first set down the complete nodal equations

Using the relationship , the nodal equations can be rewrite in a more homogeneous form:

Eliminating vo from the last two nodal equations we find that

and if we substitute this expression into the first nodal equation we find that

Finally, substituting these two expressions into the second nodal equation

we find the following expression for the voltage gain:
