I’m clearly missing something while trying to use FRA analysis. I made an extremely simple test feedback circuit to try to measure open-loop gain:
When I use AC analysis I get exactly what I would expect, an integrator with ~10 dB of gain at 100 Hz and 90 degrees phase shift:
Bode analysis is the same:
But when I use stepped FRA analysis I get the following:
Which seems to be accurate to a certain frequency, then it diverges from the correct response.
I’m sure I’m overlooking something in the setup or some understanding of the limitations? Test file attached.
