Quantitative results show that three scenarios can arise for the settling behavior of a closed-loop active-cascode operational amplifier depending on the relative locations of the unity-gain frequencies of the auxiliary and the main amplifiers. The analysis also reveals that, although theoretically possible, it is practically difficult to achieve an exact pole-zero cancellation.
