Bode plotter
An electronic instrument, resembling an oscilloscope, which produces a Bode diagram, or a graph, of a circuit's voltage gain or phase shift are plotted against frequency in a feedback control system. It is extremely useful for testing filters.
It is so called because of "Bode's theorem", which shows the interdependence of phase angle and rate of change of gain of a network at a desired frequency.
