Quadratic poles or zeros of the form 1+2?(j??)+(j??)2 Bode Plots We can combine the constant gain term (K) and the N pole(s) or zero(s) at the origin such that the magnitude crosses 0 dB at Define the break frequency to be at ω=1/? with magnitude at ±3 dB and phase at ±45° Bode Plot Summary Single Pole Zero Bode Plots Bode Plot Refinements Further refinement of the magnitude characteristic for first order poles and zeros is possible since Magnitude at half break frequency: |H(??b)| = ±1 dB Magnitude at break frequency: |H(?b)| = ±3 dB Magnitude at twice break frequency: |H(2?b)| = ±7 dB Second order poles (and zeros) require that the damping ratio (? value) be taken into account; see Fig. 9-30 in textbook Bode Plots to Transfer Function We can also take the Bode plot and extract the transfer function
