Common-mode point for OPamp
May 01st, 2008, 12:07pm
 
Hello everyone,

I have a question regarding how to setup the output common-mode voltage before connect the CMFB circuit. Should these points be close to what ever we want (for example, vdd/2) or it doesn't matter as long as the we can correct them with CMFB circuit?

Thanks!

Norman

Hi Noman,

The CM voltage should be selected in order to guarantee the required differential signal excursion. Then the CMFB will be the one forcing such CM level and will obviously have to be designed for working at those levels.
