PRODUCTION DATA.
The dynamic characteristics of the OPAx180 are optimized for a range of common operating conditions. The combination of low closed-loop gain and high capacitive loads decreases the phase margin of the amplifier and can lead to gain peaking or oscillations. As a result, heavier capacitive loads must be isolated from the output. The simplest way to achieve this isolation is to add a small resistor (for example, ROUT equal to 50 Ω) in series with the output. Figure 27 and Figure 28 illustrate graphs of small-signal overshoot versus capacitive load for several values of ROUT. See the Feedback Plots Define Op Amp AC Performance, application report, available for download from the TI website, for details of analysis techniques and application circuits.
