Prerequisites

• Quadratic Equations

  • Print your own Bode Paper

  • A simple Bode plot example using Matlab: BodeExample.m script and corresponding plots (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2)
    T(s) = \({1+sRC} \over {1+2sRC}\)

  • Three dimensional plot of transfer function magnitude in the complex plane \(s=\sigma + j\omega\) (handout)
    T(s) = \({1+sRC} \over {1+2sRC}\)

  • Another example of three dimensional plot of transfer function magnitude (handout)
    T(s) = \(10 \cdot (s+2) \over {(s+1)(s+3)}\)

  • Bode Plots practice problems (handout)

  • In case you need more Bode plot examples here is a nice link

  • Example: solving circuits using physical intuition (handout 1, handout 2)
