Nondominant Poles of the 741 Many of the nondominant poles are difficult to calculate, however the following is an example one that is relatively easy. Consider the pole caused by C 4 in the circuit shown.

Q4
We will ignore the frequency of Q2 because it is npn and has a much higher fT. From previous work we calculated that gm2 = gm4 = 0.46mA/V. Assuming that Cje = 0.6pF and F = 25ns for the lateral pnp gives, Cb4 = Fgm4 = 25x10-90.46x10-3 = 10.75pF C4 = Cb4 + Cje = 11.35pF The open-circuit time resistance seen from C 4 is 1 1 = 1087 Nondominant pole = 2C R = 12.9MHz R04 = 2g m2 4 04 (Computer results show a pole at 15MHz)

We have calculated previously that Roc = 80.8k. The value of Cp2 is approximately, Cjc23 + Ccs17 1pF 1 Another nondominant pole = 2C R = 1.97MHz p2 oc (This is the second pole of Millers compensation)

Slew Rate for the 741 Op Amp The current available to charge and discharge the compensation capacitor Cc is 2IC4 = 19A. Therefore the slew rate is 2IC4 2(9.5A) SR = C = 30pF = 0.64V/S c
Page 230-9
SUMMARY The 3dB frequency of a complex amplifier is reasonably easy to calculate Calculation of higher-order poles is more difficult Slew rate for the 741 op amp is slightly less than 1V/s
