To create feedback, does the peak to peak amplitude of a signal loop have to have an amplification factor (gain) that reaches zero?
In technical terms, feedback occurs when the gain in the signal loop
reaches "unity" (0dB gain).
How to Eliminate Feedback
Peak-to-peak amplitude (abbreviated p–p) is the change between ...
