As seen in Chapter 4.3 two different kind of network can compensate the loop. In the two
following paragraph the guidelines to select the Type II and Type III compensation network
are illustrated.
Type III compensation network
The methodology to stabilize the loop consists of placing two zeros to compensate the effect
of the LC double pole, so increasing phase margin; then to place one pole in the origin to
