Hi all,
I guess i have a very foolish question.
We have all learned that poles and zeros are contributed by capacitor either parasitic or external. Poles tend to increase the gain to infinity and zero to 0.
I have learned that in most cases the output load capacitance , or in the case of Op-amp the capacitance at the output of first stage, is the dominant pole.
The capacitance impedance decreases as the frequency increases. Suppose F0 be the frequency of the dominant pole. when f > F0, the dominant capacitance tend to decrease its impedance, hence the quantum of voltage dropping across it reduces.
Hence according to the above explanation the gain should decrease and that's what happens when u see the Bode plot.
Then why is that poles are defined as those which increase the gain to infinity.
Please correct me.
Thanks
ARJ
