+### Problem to drive highly capacitive loads {#problem-to-drive-highly-capacitive-loads}
+
+At high frequency, the impedance of the capacitive load is very small.
+This can pose several problems:
+
+- the current to be supplied by the amplifier to have some voltage becomes very large
+- the internal impedance of the amplifier may be large compared to the load impedance, and thus large voltage drop will occur
