Can someone explain what is the reason of using feedback capacitor in an amplifier? does it even matter if we don't use it?

    Please be more clear in your question. There are many ways that a capacitor might be used in feedback. A schematic would probably help. – jwh20 Mar 30 '21 at 14:44
  • Integrator, high frequency filter. – user263983 Mar 30 '21 at 14:45
  • Edit to show what configuration or circuit you mean... One of the NPN BJT inside a [compensated](https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/206299/op-amp-what-is-internal-frequency-compensation/206315#206315) op-amp circuit has capacitive feedback to stabilize the closed-loop feedback by attenuating the open-loop gain at high frequency, where there is more than 180 degrees of phase shift. (Most IC op-amps are compensated; uncompensated variants are sometimes available.) Or maybe you're asking about feedback outside the op-amp, as part of an integrator or active filter circuit? – MarkU Mar 31 '21 at 19:47
