Frequency-compensated, multistage amplifier configuration and method for operating a frequency-compensated amplifier configuration

摘要

A frequency compensation circuit includes a first and a second compensation capacitor for a frequency-compensated amplifier to which a chopped useful signal can be supplied. In a first clock phase, the useful signal is respectively supplied to the first compensation capacitor, and in a second clock phase the useful signal is respectively supplied to the second compensation capacitor. As a result, a stable, frequency-compensated amplifier is specified in which charge reversal in the frequency compensation capacitors or Miller capacitors is avoided, making possible a configuration with a small chip area. The principle is suited particularly to Hall sensors operated in chopped mode.
