ABSTRACT:
An operational transconductance amplifier includes a first amplifier circuit that generates a first bias. A second amplifier circuit receives the first bias and generates a feedback signal. The first amplifier circuit also receives the feedback signal. A Miller compensation circuit receives the feedback signal and generates a second bias. An Ahuja compensation circuit receives the first and second biases and the feedback signal and generates a third bias. The second amplifier circuit receives the third bias. A feedback loop has an open loop response with first and second poles and a zero that are located below a crossover frequency. The Miller compensation circuit increases a frequency difference between the first and second poles. The Miller compensation circuit also adjusts a frequency of one of the poles so that the zero cancels an effect of the pole on the open loop response.
