The speed and regulation stability of the control loop for a power supply’s fixed output voltage can be observed and assessed with a Bode plot. Here’s how it’s done.

The Bode plot is recognized for its simplicity and the simple asymptotic approach makes the method useful for both design and assessment of power system control loops.

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.

Electrical engineers will recognize the Bode plot as a plot of the frequency response of a system. It displays the frequency on the x-axis and the phase (in degrees) or magnitude (in dB) on the y ...

Bode plots – or frequency response graphs – are found in just about every piece of literature for high-end audio equipment. It’s a simple idea, graphing frequency over amplitude, … ...

AC parameters which describe the amplifier's performance over frequency can appear very confusing. One tool used in many descriptions and analysis is the Bode plot, Reference 1 . This graphical ...
