General Frequency Response of a Circuit
Poles and Zeros
Generally, a circuit’s transfer function (frequency dependent gain expression) can be written as the
ratio of polynomials:
vout (τ 1z s )(1 + τ 2 z s )(1 + τ 2 z s )... vout (τ 1zϖ ) 1 − (τ 2 zϖ )2 1 − (τ 3 zϖ )2 ...
=A =A
vin (1 + τ 1 p s )(1 + τ 2 p s )(1 + τ 3 p s )... vin 1 − (τ ϖ ) 1 − (τ ϖ ) 1 − (τ ϖ ) ...
2 2
1p

2p 3p

Complex Roots of the numerator polynomial are called “zeros” while complex roots of the
denominator polynomial are called “poles”

Each zero causes the transfer function to “break to higher gain” (slope increases by 20 dB/decade)
Each pole causes the transfer function to “break to lower gain” (slope decreases by 20 dB/decade)

Real Op Amp Frequency Response

•To this point we have assumed the open loop gain, AOpen Loop, of
the op amp is constant at all frequencies.
•Real Op amps have a frequency dependant open loop gain.

AOpenLoop ( s ) = =
s +ϖ B s +ϖ B
where,
s = jϖ
AO ≡ Open loop gain at DC
ϖ B ≡ Open loop bandwidth

ϖ T ≡ Unity - gain frequency frequency where AOpenLoop ( s ) = 1 )

For the "741" Op Amp, For the " Op 07" Op Amp,


AO ~ 200,000 = 106 dB AO ~ 12,000,000 = 141 dB

If the open loop bandwidth is so small, how can the op amp be useful?
The answer to this is found by considering the closed loop gain.

Previously, we found that the closed loop gain for the Non-
inverting configuration was (for finite open loop gain):
Vout AOpenLoop R1

maximum voltage gain possible for this circuit?
