CMFB partition?
Hi, all.
How do you guys usually do CMFB partition?
Say, I designed a telescopic amp and I split the tail current into 2 transistors.
What is the current ratio between two?
I believe that the accurate way is we do loop gain simulation around CMFB (CM loop simulation) so that make CMFB loog gain crossover frequency is somewhat comparable with differential mode loop gain crossover frequency.
How do real designers do?
Can CMFB loop gain crossover frequency can be somewhat smaller than differential loop gain corssover? (That's what I heard....it is still safe)
I thought CMFB loop gain crossover had to be somewhat larger than differential loop gain crossover so that CM is well controlled before opamp works properly.
What is the reasoning behind it? And good reference, please suggest some..
The other question is I have seen that people assigned a tail current transistor fully used by CMFB. Thus, there is only one tail current transistor that contributes 100% for CMFB. What are the advantages and disadvantages of doing that compared to when we split the tail current into two?
Thanks....in advance!
