technique to find the dominant pole of a circuit only valid if there really is a dominant pole For each capacitor in the circuit you calculate an equivalent resistor seen by capacitor and form the time constant i RiCi The dominant pole then is the sum of these time constants in the circuit wp dom Department of EECS 1 t 1 t 2 L University of California Berkeley EECS 105 Fall 2003 Lecture 20 Prof
