Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LM4562
I see strong recommendations for a “rule-of-thumb” 50-100 ohm R be placed at the op amp output to isolate a CL of >100pf or the square wave step response will ring, oscillate and/or overshoot badly. Is this still a worry when the op amp signal is not a fast-rising edge but instead is a sine wave audio music signal which could be 20KHz or something above that? There might be some music elements that are fairly fast-rising transients but nothing like a 10V/uS step. Question: I have a 1,200pF cable load; the application is music audio; the op amp gain is -1; the op amp is a “… specifically for high-fidelity audio” type (as above or the like) and am using a 100Ω isolation R at the output pin. The specific application is a state-variable realization of the Linkwitz-Riley 4th-order, 2-way electronic cross-over where the high-pass and low-pass outputs are driven directly by op amp sections inside the active state-variable loop. In other words the low and high-pass cable outputs are taps off of active filter elements without output buffers. Those two op amp sections are doing double-duty as in being part of the filter loop and driving 1200pF cables via 100Ω isolation Rs.
Obviously this filter design cannot tolerate ANY kind of misbehavior of any kind at those two op amp output pins so for audio spectrum sine wave duty will the op amp stability be unaffected?
