Question about bandgap stability
Author addxjyx   Views 12   Posted at 2008/8/27 00:59  [View In Forum]
Hi, allgorvmjanz

I don't know how to simulate whether the bandgap circuit is stable. I use such a way as the figure. I use a small step signal V. Then I run transient to see whether the output is stable. Does that method right? Why? Can someone tell me how to simulate whether the BGR is stable?gorvmjanz

1 naoge There's at least two feedback loops, one is positive

and another one is negative. So they fight with each

other.



You might also try to step at the input, - input terminal

of the OpAmp, and supply lines (something like CM step).

2 htc2498 Hi gte582w,

You said my measure is right and I also need to add step signal at two inputs and supply. But someone said I should AC simulation which I am not good at. I am misunderstanding which method is right.

Can somebody explain?

3 scuzt you should simulate the AC. Break the loop the input of the amplifer, put the ac input signal to the input of the amplifier, then you can get the phase margin at the e of the Q1 2008/8/27 00:59

5 btcdtc Hi pfd001,

I have done as you said. But the gain is negative, the phase decrease from 0 degree. I don't know how much the phase margin is. I want to ask another question. You said I should put the ac input signal to the negative input of the amplifier. Can I put the ac signal at the positive input?

6 z315 you will use stb to do AC check of the loop gain and phase margin,

but remember AC is small signal, therefore, I would trust ultimately

the transient, that is why step the inputs and supply lines are must.

7 fujun2013 I think that you can test it by adding a step power supply and then do some transient simulation . 2008/8/27 00:59
