Two-Pole Compensation
Part Two: Generalized Two-Pole Compensator

The previous development in Part 1 assumed real and equal poles for the two-pole compensator. What happens if the circuit is modified to allow for complex poles? The benefit in doing this, if it can be done, is that for amplifiers with other poles and zeros in the loop gain, complex pole-pair compensation can be achieved by the compensator while maintaining high loop gain over bandwidth.
