The Gain Bandwidth Product (GBWP) of an amplifier is the product of the amplifier open-loop gain times the frequency at any point in the frequency range where the amplifier's response is attenuating at a rate of -20 dB per decade of frequency. And GBWP keeps constant where the slope is -20 dB/decade. GBWP is used to estimate the bandwidth when the gain is known. The accompanying picture demonstrates the -20 dB/decade decay as well as the -3 dB point.
The GBWP applies to voltage feedback op-amps only. For the current feedback amplifiers, the GBWP is not constant and is less than 20 dB/decade.
The bandwidth at the maximum output swing is called the Full Power Bandwidth (fFPBW). It is limited by the
If you need to work with Microchip Support staff directly, you can submit a technical support case. Keep in mind that many questions can be answered through our self-help resources, so this may not be your speediest option.
