The basics of op-amp loop-stability analysis: Breaking the loop

After my last Signal Chain Basics article, The basics of op amp loop-stability analysis: A tale of twin loop-gains, I received questions about how to generate the open-loop SPICE simulation curves ...

Non-Invasively Assess Your Multiple-Loop LDO’s Stability

Some low-dropout regulators (LDOs) use multiple feedback loops to improve output voltage transient response. In many of these cases, some or all of the loops are inside the IC. Accessing these loops ...

Measure power-supply loop transfer

Power supplies use control-loop circuits to produce constant voltage or current. The transfer function—gain and phase as a function of frequency—provides valuable information about a control loop’s ...

Measuring Stability Key To High Performance

Negative feedback is used in voltage regulators, point-of-load (POL) regulators, voltage references, operational amplifiers (op-amps), and other electronic circuits in order to produce an accurate ...
