In 1938 Hendrik Wade Bode, who worked at Bell Labs, published his asymptotic assessment of phase margin and gain margin, bearing his name [2]. The Bode plot is recognized for its simplicity and the ...

A Bode plot can simplify characterization of an active or a passive network by showing frequency and phase representations of the network's transfer function, T. In its classic form, a Bode plot ...

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 ...
