Frequently asked questions

What is recommended for phase margin in stable response?

For a stable response, at least 45° of phase margin is recommended when the gain crosses OdB.

How do you enable macros in the design spreadsheet?

You must check the 'Always trust macros from this source' box and click the 'Enable Macros' button if a security warning appears.
