Abstract
In this paper, various Miller-compensated amplifiers are analyzed by using the two-port feedback analysis together with the root-locus diagram. The proposed analysis solves problems of Miller theorem/approximation that fail to predict a pole-splitting and that require an impractical assumption that an initial lower frequency pole before connecting a Miller capacitor in a two-stage amplifier should be associated with the input of the amplifier. Since the proposed analysis sheds light on how the closed-loop poles originate from the open-loop poles in the s-plane, it allows the association of the closed-loop poles with the circuit components and thus provides a design insight for frequency compensation. The circuits analyzed are two-stage Miller-compensated amplifiers with and without a current buffer and a three-stage nested Miller-compensated amplifier.
