A better understanding of closed-loop control, and how to tune it, can be found by looking at the individual parts of the PID equation and the effect of each on the controlled output By Bill Dehner ...

For example, an oscillating reheat steam temperature control loop can cause oscillations in the generator load, throttle pressure, fuel, and drum level controllers.

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 ...

Some common examples where the control loop may not be accessible include voltage references, fixed voltage regulators and integrated audio amplifiers to name just a few.

“Designing Control Loops for Linear and Switching Power Supplies” is the latest book from Christophe Basso, a past contributer to Power Electronics. This book focuses on what ...

What you'll learn: How to read Bode plots to assess dynamic control behavior of a power-supply design. Observing Bode plots from an example voltage regulator to observe control-loop speed and ...

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 ...
