Topic: Frequency compensation


  
  Frequency compensation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In electrical engineering, frequency compensation is a design technique for amplifiers which use negative feedback or those, such as operational amplifiers, that are intended for use with negative feedback.
The primary goal of frequency compensation is to avoid unintentionally creating positive feedback, although the technique enjoys secondary benefits such as providing nearly constant phase over a larger range of operating frequencies.
Frequency compensation might be accomplished by adding a capacitor in a feedback loop in the second stage of the amplifier.

The primary goal of frequency compensation is to avoid unintentionally creating (Feedback in phase with (augmenting) the input) positive feedback, although the technique enjoys secondary benefits such as providing nearly constant (Any distinct time period in a sequence of events) phase over a larger range of operating (additional info and facts about frequencies) frequencies.
At this frequency, negative feedback becomes positive feedback; not only are the benefits of negative feedback lost, but the gain is destabilized and (additional info and facts about nonlinear) nonlinear effects become more pronounced.
Another, potentially disastrous, drawback of frequency compensation arises when active (An artifact that is one of the individual parts of which a composite entity is made up; especially a part that can be separated from or attached to a system) components are used in the feedback loop.

 Monolithic step attenuator having internal frequency compensation - US Patent 5666089   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
Compensation for the variation in the frequency response may be achieved external to the attenuator by adjusting the amplitude of the applied electrical signal according to the signal frequency.
If the frequency response is not flat or constant, frequency compensation external to the attenuator 10 is often applied, increasing the cost and complexity of microwave systems in which the attenuator 10 is used.
Internal frequency compensation is provided as long as the FET switch S5 is open in the monolithic step attenuator's 20 high attenuation state, regardless of whether the FET switch S5 is open or closed in the low attenuation state.

In general, it should be expected that even the simplest amplifiers have at least two poless.
More importantly, however, is the fact that over most practical frequencies, negative feedback is preserved.
For example, a hypothetical amplifier comfiguration which uses an op-amp for both the forward amplifier and the feedback loop would have -180° phase at even low frequencies.

 Pole Zero Analysis - Part 3 Loudness Compensation
The low frequency "pole" shifts upward as the level is reduced, and the actual high frequency compensation "slope" is quite high, changing about 15dB from 4kHz to 15kHz (which corresponds to about 2 "zeros" of real compensation).
A low frequency pole-zero pair is implemented with a series resistance from input to output then a series resistor capacitor to ground.
This has the effect of sliding the compensation point higher in frequency as the overall attenuation is increased.

 Index for 2_Frequency-Change-Compensation
Taken together, I believe these two graphs show that the source of frequency changes during this transmission was not in the transmitting, or receiving, equipment, but was caused by changing motion within the ionosphere.
Although these Frequency Change Compensations lie within a band about 7 Hz wide, the second graph below shows a dramatic reduction in the nominal capacity of the outer code that had to be used in order to correct the errors left by the inner decoder.
Thus, in addition to compensating for a signal that was changing relatively rapidly in frequency, quite a few short drop outs had to be corrected for, in order to recover an exact copy of the file W8ZCF sent.

 analogZONE Columnist Dennis Feucht: Two-Pole Compensation   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
Dominant-pole (single-pole) compensation reduces gain appreciably at higher frequencies because the pole must be placed at a relatively low frequency in order to decrease the loop gain to one at a desirable phase margin.
The dynamic response may then be acceptable but the side-effect is that, except at low frequencies, the loop gain rolls off, and high-frequency amplifier performance suffers.
The two-pole compensation technique sustains high gain to a higher break frequency, where it then rolls off at -40 dB/decade (-2 slope) followed by a zero that restores the magnitude to that of dominant-pole compensation.

 CTS Announces Breakthrough in High Stability, Low-Noise Analog TCXOs
ELKHART, Ind.--June 7, 2001--CTS Corporation today announced the implementation of a new analog temperature compensation method for achieving precise frequency versus temperature stability, which is now being utilized in select CTS precision temperature compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) designs.
"When it is necessary to achieve precise frequency versus temperature stability, traditional analog temperature compensation methods have been constrained by a time-consuming, labor intensive process," states James Hart, vice president and general manager of CTS Frequency Products.
"TCXOs with digital compensation are available at similar stabilities, but are inherently noisy and exhibit discrete steps in frequency as the compensation data is updated causing loss of lock in phase lock loop applications, disrupting system timing integrity.

At the end, the program suggests a specific strategy to excite a three-level atom using three frequencies that are linear combinations of the target and reference frequencies.
However, almost never will these excitation frequencies be in resonance with the atomic transitions, and instead there are going to be large detunings.
Note that the more references, the more stages and the more complex search one performs, the more likely is that a triplet of excitation frequencies close to the atomic transitions of one of the atoms in the database will be found.
