The feedback capacitor C2 is required for closed-
loop gains greater than 50 V/V. The capacitor in-
troduces a pole and a zero in the loop gain transfer
function,
This indicates that the separation of the pole and
the zero is governed by the closed loop gain. It is
required that the zero falls on the steep slope
(–100 dB/decade) of the loop gain plot so that there
is some gain higher than 0 dB (typically 20 dB) at
the hand-over frequency (the frequency at which
the slope changes from – 100 dB/decade to
–20 dB/decade).

The loop gain plot shown in Figure 18 illustrates
the unity gain configuration, and indicates how this
is modified when using the amplifier in a higher
gain configuration with compensation. If it is con-
figured for higher gain, for example, 60 dB, the
x–axis will move up by 60 dB (line B). Capacitor
C2 adds a zero and a pole. The modified plot indi-
cates the effects of introducing the pole and zero
due to capacitor C2. The pole can be located at any
frequency higher than the hand-over frequency, the
zero has to be at a frequency lower than the hand-
over frequency so as to provide adequate gain mar-
gin. The separation between the pole and the zero
is governed by the closed loop gain. The zero (z
1
)
occurs at the intersection of the –100 dB/decade
and –80 dB/decade slopes. The point X in the fig-
ure should be at closed loop gain plus 20 dB gain
margin. The value for C2 = 1/(2π R1 P1). Setting
the pole of the filter to P1 = 1 MHz works very well
and is independent of gain. As the closed loop gain
is changed, the zero location is also modified if R1
remains fixed. Capacitor C2 can be increased in
value to limit the amplifier’s rising noise above
2kHz.

3.2.2 Gain Calculations Summary and
Recommendations
Condition #1: |Av| 50 and R1 100 Ω
The Opamp is inherently stable for |Av| 50 and
R1 100 Ω . No C2 compensation capacitor across
R2 is required.
|Av| = 1 configuration has 70° phase margin
and 20 dB gain margin.
|Av| = 50 configuration has phase margin be-
tween 40° for C
LOAD
100 pF and 60° for
C
LOAD
= 0pF.
Condition #2: |Av| 50 and R1 > 100 Ω
Compensation capacitor C2 across R2 is required.
Calculate C2 using the following formula:
•C2(R1 C
in
) / R2, where Cin = 50 pF
Condition #3: |Av| > 50
Compensation capacitor C2 across R2 is required.
Calculate and verify a value for C2 using the fol-
lowing steps.
Calculate the Compensation Capacitor Value:
1) Calculate a value for C2 using the following
formula:
C2 =1/[2π (R1|
|R2) P1], where P1 = 1 MHz
To simplify the calculation, set the pole of the filter
to P1 = 1 MHz. P1 must be set higher than the
opamp’s internal 50 kHz crossover frequency.
2) Calculate a second value for C2 using the fol-
lowing formula:
C2 (R1 C
in
) / R2, where Cin = 50 pF
3) Use the larger of the two values calculated in
steps 1 & 2.
Verify the Opamp Compensation:
Verify the opamp compensation using the open-
loop gain and phase response Bode plot in
Figure 15. Plot the calculated closed loop gain
transfer function and verify the following design
criteria are met:
Pole P1 > opamp internal 50 kHz crossover fre-
quency
- P1=1/[2π (R1|
|R2) C2], where P1 = 1 MHz
- To simplify the calculation, set the pole to
P1 = 1 MHz.
Z1 < opamp internal 50 kHz crossover frequency
- Z1=1/(2π R2 C2)
Gain margin above the open-loop gain transfer
function is required. A gain margin of +20 dB
above the open loop gain transfer function is
optimal.
3.3 Powerdown (PDWN)
The CS3001 single amplifier provides a power-
down function on pin 1. If this pin is left open the
amplifier will operate normally. If the powerdown
is asserted low, the amplifier will go into a low
power state. There is a pull-up resistor (approxi-
mately 800 kΩ) inside the amplifier from pin 1 to
the V+ supply. The current through this pull-up re-
sistor is the main source of current drain in the
powerdown state.
