I intend to use a an AD1604 analog switch that has a bandwidth of 15MHz with an LTC6244 op amp that has a GBW of 50MHz for two functional blocks:
1) A transimpedance amplifier where the AD1604 would select among four feedback resistors to make the transimpedances selectable.2) A voltage amplifier with four selectable gains.
The bandwidth of both amplifiers needs to be at least 1MHz.
For both amplifiers my concern is what a 15 MHz bandwidth analog switch in the feedback path of a 50Mhz op amp will do to the op amp's stability. Would the analog switch create a second pole in the feedback path that would reduce the phase margin and cause oscillations?
In the voltage gain stage would the 15MHz analog switch in the feedback path mean I could only have a gain of 15 to get a bandwidth of 1MHz? Or would the entire 50MHz of the op amp remain available making the maximum gain 50?
