Shunt Capacitor Diagram Amplifier Circuit. Use in electronic filter circuits edit the term shunt is used in filter and similar circuits with a ladder topology to refer to the components connected between the line and common. The current series feedback amplifier is characterized by having shunt sampling and series mixing.

Use in electronic filter circuits edit the term shunt is used in filter and similar circuits with a ladder topology to refer to the components connected between the line and common. Instead of using a single unit of capacitor per phase of the system it is quite effective to use a bank of capacitor units in the view of maintenance and erection. The dc bias is blocked by 0 1uf capacitor.

Shunt capacitance compensation involves intentionally adding capacitance in parallel with the existing capacitance of one of the circuit s nodes.

Compensation via a shunt capacitor a brute force way of making a pole dominant is to intentionally add capacitance to the node responsible for the lowest pole frequency. Here is the schematic diagram of the circuit. This is a very stable circuit and can be used for wideband amplifiers and low gain. The amplifier has gain of about 12 if ac feedback loop.
