Machines and processes are controlled using many strategies, from simple ladder logic to custom algorithms for specialized process control, but proportional-integral-derivative (PID) is the most ...

and if you’ve ever taken a control systems class you might remember seeing pages full of differential equations and bode diagrams just to describe its basic operation. Although this might make ...

It is a common situation in electronics to have a control loop ... to see what each part of the equation does to the ping-pong ball. Even if you have used PID before, you will enjoy seeing ...
