Hi raja,
          MiddleBrook requires you to calculate Av and Ai...Using these probes in your schematic....you dont need to perform any processing....just place an iprobe in your schematic....choose stb analysis from ADE....select the probe as the probe instance...and run a stb analysis over deisred freq. range...It automatically gives you the Loop Gain Bode Plots...No post processing required...faster analysis...
[ I agree with Jerry here....Best Design Tool -> Capable designers Tongue ]

Hi Mayank,

I cannot comment on ADS capabilities (stb analysis) as I am not familiar with this program.
However, in order to avoid problems and misunderstandings, just one hint: The phase margin concept within the frame of the BODE plot gives correct results only if the NYQUIST criterion in its simplified form with its restrictions is applicable.
Thanks

Note that it is spectre that is providing stb analysis within ADE (Analog Design Environment) (not ADS which is a simulator from Agilent; that may well also have a stb analysis, but I can't answer that).

Regards,

Andrew

Hi,
    I was referring to Analog Design Environment ADE from Cadence....Guess buddy mistook it as Agilent's ADS, but simulator's name wasnt his point....So didnt correct...
    Anyways,  Thanx for the correction Sir....

regards,
Mayank
