Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller is the most preferable controller in industries that does not require precise analytical model of the system to be controlled. Implementation of PID controllers has gone through several stages of evolution from the early mechanical and pneumatic designs to the microprocessor based systems. Recently “Field Programmable Gate Array” has become an a...
