Abstract
Theoretical and experimental results are presented for op-amp compensation using split-length transistors. By using split-length devices the right-half plane zero which plagues op-amp performance can be eliminated. Experimental results indicate substantial enhancements in speed while reducing power consumption and layout area. Further, these techniques can be used to compensate op-amps when using small supply voltage (VDD).
