Post C2 value or your question makes no sense.
I wonder if this C2 is wrong?
C2 is likely for boosting high frequency and it can cause instability on some op amps.
I saw a power amplifier using LME49830 adding C2 to the feedback circuit. I think maybe this is a mistake.
This is often used to increase stability by compensating for parasitic capacity for instance on the +inp or the output.
It normally has no impact on the freq response because the RC time with it's resistor is way above the circuit bandwidth.
Mostly in the single pF range, or maybe up to 22p.

Itz boosting high freq
But will it cause circuit oscillation?
Only if overdone, or when you roll opamps. Keep the recommended value (unless this is a diy schematic, in that case all bets are off).

Sorry, my English is poor and I don't understand it very well.(unless this is a diy sche matic, in that case all bets are off).
What will happen if C2 exceeds 100 pf?
That in this position "only high quality capacitors" must be used :-DWhat else is there to say?
Your question has been answered. The capacitor boosts high frequencies, and affects stability. What else is there to say?
Thank you, my friend.
I just want to make sure that this capacitor is an incorrect demonstration.
Once again? This question has already been done and solved.
Sorry, I may have doubts on this issue.
I was told that C2 is a "dominant pole compensati" capacitor and that it stabilizes the circuit??
But you said it would lead to circuit instability
.
I'm sorry to disturb you.
Ignoring the effect of the big electrolytic capacitor, the amp has a DC gain of 1 (0dB) which essentially continues until the unknown reactance of unknown value of C2 equals the resistance in parallel with it. This will be the corner frequency of +3dB, an if you continue increasing frequency, the amp theoretically reaches infinite gain, only limited by the opamp ihnherent gain.
This is how the schematic works in few and simple words.

- Dear friends, what is C2 doing in the picture
