What Are PID Controllers? PID control is the most commonly used control algorithm, used extensively in industrial, process, and commercial applications and has been universally accepted as the easiest ...
A few weeks ago, I installed an automatic water heater switch to my bathroom, but it was a crude device. What I really want to do is design a universal heater driver. That basic idea can be adapted to ...
Well designed conventional PID controllers using Ziegler-Nichols method are having large overshoot and settling time. Significant research work has been carried out to improve the performance of ...
For those new to fields like robotics or aerospace, it can seem at first glance that a problem like moving a robot arm or flying an RC airplane might be simple problems to solve. It turns out, however ...
It is a common situation in electronics to have a control loop, that is some sort of feedback that drives the input to a system such as a motor or a heater based upon a sensor to measure something ...
Arduino open source hardware was been used in an industrial controller design. Austrian firm Controllino has based its programmable logic controllers (PLCs) on Arduino modules. This is an example of ...
The new PM PLUS from Watlow, an enhanced version of the popular EZ-ZONE PM temperature controller, is more intuitive than its predecessor and features an improved user interface for easier set up, ...
