BodePlot.xls Keith E.

Holbert, April 2008

This file creates a Bode plot given the transfer function: 2/(1+4s) = 2/(1+4jw)
As demonstrated in class, the students need to adjust the "look" of the plot (e.g., axes).
Different transfer functions may require a little thought before sticking them into this worksheet.
Other transfer functions may also require use of additional Excel imaginary number functions.
