The schematic of the loop filter is:
The transfer function is:
where the time constants are defined as:
and
The frequency at which unity gain occurs is given by:
This is also the loop bandwidth.
If the phase margin (PM) and the loop bandwidth (
ω
LBW) are known, it is possible to calculate the time constants. These
are found using the equations4:
