Presets
A lead compensator (pole above zero) adds phase near the crossover to boost stability margins and speed; a lag compensator (pole below zero) trades phase to raise low-frequency gain and kill steady-state error. Educational tool.

Governing equation
Reading this result: Pole above zero makes this a lead network: it injects up to 55° of phase near 3.2 rad/s, widening the stability margin and speeding the response right where the loop crosses over.
