Many articles and application notes describe the extraction of phase margin, using a non-invasive technique that extracts the phase margin from an output impedance measurement. The term non-invasive ...

These three analysis methods are linked together, so this section is organized by control method. In contrast to the large-signal transient response that was reviewed in part 2, we will perform ac ...

Once k is calculated together with different data values coming from the open-loop Bode plot of the converter to stabilize, the derivation of all compensation elements for types 1, 2, and 3 is ...

This article describes how Bode plots can be used as a tool to quickly assess if your power supply design will meet the requirements for dynamic control behaviour. Power supplies normally maintain a ...

When getting from point A to point B is all you’re worried about, simple step inputs usually suffice. But when your machine’s movement between points needs smooth elegance, then a complex, controlled ...
