% Phase margin calculator for HSPICE open-loop frequency response data.
%
% 'circuit_name' is a string containing the prefix of an hspice file. The files
% ciruit_name.ac0 and circuit_name.ac1 should contain the Middlebrook-style
% voltage- and current-mode loop gain simulations.
%
% This program generates the frequency response plot of out/in (magnitude and 
% phase) and then attempts to find the gain and phase margins of the system.
