OpAmp design
Hi everyone,
I am designing a low voltage opamp. The target specs only state the f3db, but not ft, of my opamp. I am in need of ft before i calculate my aspect ratio of input transistor. (hence i dont know gm1 either).
Now assuming a two pole transfer function, after f3db = 500Mhz, can i esitmate at 12db/octave rolloff to guess my correct unity gain frequency. So incase my DC gain was 60 db, my unity gain should be around 500 x 5 = 2500Mhz at around the 0db gain ?.
Could any of you verify the above method for estimation of my unity gain?
Regards
EA
