Description
Summary:Hence, many concepts of control system are abstract and difficult to fully comprehend, by most of the students whose study in engineering. The opportunity to study and design controllers of an actual laboratory process is a valuable experience that can reinforce important concepts and make learning process more effective and interesting. This project addresses real-time DC motor speed and position control for learning purpose using operational amplifier as an analog PID controller. A PID controller is designed using MATLAB as a simulation tool to determine a set of coefficients that meet the performance requirement of de motor. The controller coefficients are then transfer to the hardware configuration that implements the PID controller. The graphical user interfaces (GUI) is developed using Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 to plot and monitor the system response in real time. It will greatly help the student to visualize the performance of control system.
