When you simulate some amplifiers, what value do you using for a load capacitor?

Just for test a performance, there is no spec.
 

For ex. Just take 0.5pF/1p/2pF for test simulation

Generally if u have spec in hand , then it'll mentioned how much load ur amp should drive.
 

um.. commonly. You are using 0.5pf~2pf.

And there are a method to sweep the load capacitor.

Ok! thank you ^0^
 

some performance test depends on loading, i.e. phase margin, be sure to know what is your actually loading in application. sometimes 0.5pf is also too large
 

it depends on your load,next stage
for CMOS input stage ,0.5p is reasonable
 

i think you should know your next stage first or for what you design the op? try to find out the load first.
:)
 

Depending upon the driving strenght of the chip.. choose capacitor accordingly...........:D
 

I SHOULD BE SURE WITH mydreamhouse
