This video covers a few interesting things about the step response. We’ll look at what a step response is and some of the ways it can be used to specify design requirements for closed loop control systems.

We will also look at why design requirements like rise time, overshoot, settling time, and steady state error are popular and how they are related to natural frequency and damping ratio for a second order system with no finite zeros.
