Lecture 3: Bode Plots Prof. Niknejad
Get to know your logs! • Engineers are very conservative. A “margin” of 3dB is a factor of 2 (power)! • Knowing a few logs by memory can help you calculate logs of different ratios by employing properties of log. For instance, knowing that the ratio of 2 is 3 dB, what’s the ratio of 4? University of California, Berkeley
Bode Plot Overview • Technique for estimating a complicated transfer function (several poles and zeros) quickly • Break frequencies : University of California, Berkeley
Summary of Individual Factors • Simple Pole: • Simple Zero: • DC Zero: • DC Pole: University of California, Berkeley
Example • Consider the following transfer function • Break frequencies: invert time constants University of California, Berkeley
Breaking Down the Magnitude • Recall log of products is sum of logs • Let’s plot each factor separately and add them graphically University of California, Berkeley
Breaking Down the Phase • Since • Let’s plot each factor separately and add them graphically University of California, Berkeley

Comparison to “Actual” Mag Plot University of California, Berkeley
Comparison to “Actual” Phase Plot University of California, Berkeley
Why do I say “actual”? • I plotted the transfer characteristics with Mathematica • The range of frequency for the plot is 6 orders of magnitude. The program has to find the “hot spots” in order to plot the function. Near the hot spots, more points are plotted. In between hot spots, the function is interpolated. If you pick the wrong points, you’ll end up with the wrong plot: • mag = LogLinearPlot[20*Log[10, Abs[H[x]]], {x, 10^4, 10^11},PlotPoints -> 10000, Frame -> True,PlotStyle -> Thickness[.005], ImageSize -> 600,GridLines -> Automatic, PlotRange -> {{10^4, 10^11}, {-20, 100}} ] University of California, Berkeley

Second Order Transfer Function • The series resonant circuit is one of the most important elementary circuits: • The physics describes not only physical LCR circuits, but also approximates mechanical resonance (mass-spring, pendulum, molecular resonance, microwave cavities, transmission lines, buildings, bridges, …) University of California, Berkeley
Series LCR Analysis • With phasor analysis, this circuit is readily analyzed + Vo − University of California, Berkeley
+ Vo − Second Order Transfer Function • So we have: • To find the poles/zeros, let’s put the H in canonical form: • One zero at DC frequency can’t conduct DC due to capacitor University of California, Berkeley
Poles of 2nd Order Transfer Function • Denominator is a quadratic polynomial: University of California, Berkeley
Im Re Finding the poles… • Let’s factor the denominator: • Poles are complex conjugate frequencies • The Q parameter is called the “quality-factor” or Q-factor • This parameters is an important parameter: University of California, Berkeley
Im Re Resonance without Loss • The transfer function can parameterized in terms of loss. First, take the lossless case, R=0: • When the circuit is lossless, the poles are at real frequencies, so the transfer function blows up! • At this resonance frequency, the circuit has zero imaginary impedance • Even if we set the source equal to zero, the circuit can have a steady-state response University of California, Berkeley
Magnitude Response • The response peakiness depends on Q University of California, Berkeley
