But, if the inputs are reversed or somehow A vo HjwL.bHjwL changes its sign, the feedback becomes positive, the denominator can become <, therefore, A vf with feedback becomes even greater than A vo of the operational amplifier.

R L does not load the filter; therefore, it does not affect the frequency response. 2. The filter can actually amplify the signal in its path.

R Thevenin.C observe that ω 3dB = and depends on loading resistance R RC L. At higher frequencies, frequency response of "real opamp" will alter the frequency response of the active filter. * Note that the danger of instability at the frequency where phase angle ª 80 * If the opamp is internally frequency compensated it can introduce no more than 90 phase while its gain is still greater than "0 db". This implies that: Overall filter will never have a gain greater than 0 db when phase = -80 ï stable. Univ. of Southern Maine 6 Prof. M. G. Guvench
