Source: Flex Power Modules Eliminating current spikes Using a loop compensation tool, one solution would be to decrease the gain until the output impedance appeared constant, or until the current ...

PID (proportional, integral, derivative) control has existed for decades and there are many tools available to help implement PID to tune process control systems, thereby making it generally easy to ...

That means the relationship between the controller output signal versus the control valve flow rate will be changing throughout all the different operational conditions and the loop tuning parameters ...

The output of the Hall-effect sensor will not 100% match the sensed current, though. For example, if the sensed current is a sine wave, then the output of the Hall-effect sensor is a sine wave with a ...

PID loops are a central component of modulating boiler control systems with applications ranging from basic steam header pressure control to cascading 3-element drum level control. A modern ...

Honeywell Industry Solutions announced recently that it has analyzed performance data from more than 100,000 control loops at 350 manufacturing facilities since the introduction of its Loop Scout ...

Just over a decade ago, an article titled, "Advanced Control Strategies Move into the Field" (Control, October 2008), highlighted three evolving trends in the process control world that would "make ...

To implement this control loop, Analog Devices announced the LTM4663, a complete 1.5-A sink/source thermoelectric cooler (TEC) regulator in a 3.5- × 4- × 1.3-mm LGA package (Fig. 1).
