Also in this tutorials I used Matlab R2012b. To demonstrate this properly, consider the Simulink model in Figure 1. You should have license for Simulink control design to use the bode plot. In a bode plot you can get the gain and phase margins and know if the system is stable or not. Bode plot is a graph of gain and phase of a system. John Dunn is an electronics consultant, and a graduate of The Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn (BSEE) and of New York University (MSEE).Below is the step by step procedure on how to setup bode plot in Simulink. This article was originally published on EDN. To be sure, the Bode plot of the passive components alone and the Bode plot of those components in the oscillator differ slightly, but I chose to ascribe that difference to a slight loading effect, perhaps by the 2N4392 gate. Maybe I could have put my one microvolt signal in series with R3 or something like that but I had what I needed so I didn’t look any further into it. To be sure, the circuit disruptive effect of V2 and R4 on the oscillator was negligible, but by including those two parts in the simulation, the Bode Plotter came to life and gave me a usable result. I used one microvolt peak for V2 and fed that to the top of R3 via one teraohm. (It’s fun when you can anthropomorphize an inanimate thing, isn’t it?) I had to add V2 and R4 as shown in Figure 2 to serve as an external stimulus to convince the Bode Plotter to do its thing.

The Bode Plotter would not accept the oscillator’s own oscillation as the circuit excitation. However, when I tried to use the Bode Plotter on the oscillator circuit itself, there was no response, even though the oscillator was working and delivering signal. The signal source V1 provided the circuit excitation required by the Bode Plotter tool to get that instrument to function. Using a Bode Plotter on the passive component network alone, I saw what I was hoping to see: a sharp peak in the transfer function at the correct frequency-in this case at approximately 1.6MHz. 《Advanced eye analysis – get to your results faster》⭐get to eye diagram principles and traditional acquisition methods such as live eye and bit sequenceįigure 1 An unsuccessful analysis attempt.
