Can some kind sould tell me what the following load of old cobblers from the datasheet of a FET opamp means in plain English?
********************************************************************************"As with most amplifiers,care should be taken with lead dress,component placement and supply decoupling in order to ensure stability.For example,resistors from the output to an input should be placed with the body close to the input to minimize pick-up and maximize the frequency of the feedback pole by minimizing the capacitance from the input to ground.
"A feedback pole is created when the feedback around any amplifier is resistive.The parallel resistance and capacitance from the input of the device(usually the inverting input) to AC ground set the frequency of the pole.In many instances the frequency of this pole is much greater than the expected 3-dB frequency of the closed loop gain and consequently there is negligible effect on stability margin.However, if the feedback pole is less than approximately six times the expected
3-dB frequency a lead capacitor should be placed from the output to the input of the op amp.The value of the added capacitor should be such that the RC time constant of this capacitor and the resistance it parallels is greater than or equal to the original feedback pole time constant."********************************************************************************
Nothing shows up when I Google "feedback pole" so knowing WTF that alone means would be a help!
