[sci.electronics] PID feedback control

katie@eris.berkeley.edu (Kate Schwarz) (04/02/91)

I am building a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) feedback control
system. Can anyone recommend a reference book or magazine article
about PID feedback, especially stability aspects?
E-mail would be appreciated. Thanks.

'Depends.  If you are doing an analog implementation, try D'Azzo & Houpis'
Linear Control System Analysis & Design.  If you're going digital (better idea)
try Astrom & Wittenmark's Computer Controlled Systems: Theory and Design.
