Phase Margin Calculation

netbug

Dear all,

I am creating some expressions on ADE-XL (under Outputs setup) and I am having problems to do a simple phase margin calculation, since sometimes the phase starts at 180 deg and other times -180 deg or 0 deg. How can I get around this, once the usual functions from the calculator don't solve this problem ?

A ternary operator would work for this case, but I don't think it is possible to implement it in these expressions.

Best regards,

Pedro

  • Pedro,

    You can effectively have a ternary expression by using the SKILL if() function. You can do if(condition trueExpr falseExpr) - or if you prefer you can do if(condition then trueExpr else falseExpr). Either way this is equivalent to using condition?trueExpr:falseExpr . This can be used in the ADE XL outputs...

    Andrew.
