Without external compensation, the noise specification of
the OPA228 is the same as that for the OPA227 in gains of
5 or greater. With the additional external compensation, the
output noise of the of the OPA228 will be higher. The
amount of noise increase is directly related to the increase
in high frequency closed-loop gain established by the CIN/
CF ratio.
values for CF. Because compensation is highly dependent
on circuit design, board layout, and load conditions, CF
should be optimized experimentally for best results. Fig-
ures 9 and 10 show the large- and small-signal step re-
sponses for the G = +2 configuration with 100pF load
capacitance. Figures 12 and 13 show the large- and small-
signal step responses for the G = –2 configuration with
100pF load capacitance.
Figures 8 and 11 show the recommended circuit for gains
of +2 and –2, respectively. The figures suggest approximate
