General Frequency considerations

Low Frequency Range

The larger capacitors of a system will have an important impact on the

response of a system in the low-frequency range and can be ignored for
the high-frequency region.

General Frequency considerations

High Frequency Range

The smaller capacitors of a system will have an important impact on the

response of a system in the high-frequency range and can be ignored for the
low-frequency region.

12

General Frequency considerations

Mid Frequency Range

In the mid-frequency range the effect of the capacitive elements is largely

ignored and the amplifier considered ideal and composed simply of resistive
elements and controlled sources.

The effect of the capacitive elements in an amplifier are ignored for the
mid-frequency range when important quantities such as the gain and
impedance levels are determined.

LOW-FREQUENCY ANALYSISBODE PLOT

The piecewise linear plot of the asymptotes and associated
breakpoints is called a Bode plot of the magnitude versus frequency.
