Thanks, and as you know, there is a type 1 error amplifier, and a type 2b....type 2b is a type 1 but with a resistor connected in pllel to the capacitor.
As you know, the resistor in this place reduces gain at DC......and usually, the power stage poles and zeros in an SMPS mean that the very last thing that you ever want to do is sacrifice gain at DC.......so why have a type 2b error amplifier which cuts down your gain at DC?....there must be very niche, specific applications for it.......it would need to be an SMPS application which involves a power stage with a very low frequency zero....but what SMPS topology has such a thing?, that a type 2b error amp is needed?
Is it a battery charger?...because the battery is basically a very big capacitor, and the ESR zero is therefore at a very low frequency?...but then again, i thought that the current regulation of battery chargers, basically cancels out the big battery capacitance?
There must be a good reason why people take a type 1 error amplifier, and then add a resistor in parallel to the capacitor?...i cant think of any SMPS power stage that would need such compensation?

In relation to this, please see bottom pf page 8 of this..

"Unfortunately, DC gain does tend to fall at high load currents"
..this epitomises what i mean...high DC gain is desirable in most SMPS's....so why ever drop DC gain by using a type 2b error amplifier?
