In order to achieve a good phase margin, the NMCF compensation scheme uses the positive phase shift of left-half-plane (LHP) zero caused by the feedforvvard path to counteract the negative phase shift of the non-dominant pole. Compared to traditional Miller compensation method, the op-amp obtains high gain and wide band synchronously without the pole-splitting effect while saves significant chip area due to the absence of the Miller capacitor. Simulated by the 0.35 μm CMOS RF technology, the result shows that the open-loop gain of the op-amp is 118 dB with the unity gain-bandwidth (UGBW) of 1 GHz, and the phase margin is 61°while the settling time is 5.8 ns when achieving 0.01% accuracy. The op-amp is especially suitable for the front-end sample/hold (S/H) cell and the multiplying D/A converter (MDAC) module of the high-speed high-resolution pipelined A/D converters (AVCs).展开更多
