Introduction:
The servo is an automatic electromechanical device that uses error-sensing feedback to correct
the performance of a mechanism. The term applies only to systems where the feedback or
errorcorrection signals help control mechanical position or other parameters.
A common type of servomotors provides position control. Servos are commonly electrical or
partially electronic in nature, using an electric motor as the primary means of creating
mechanical force. Other types of servos use hydraulics, pneumatics, or magnetic principles.
Usually, servos operate on the principle of negative feedback, where the control input is
compared to the actual position of the mechanical system as measured by some sort of transducer
at the output. Any difference between the actual and wanted values (an "error signal") is
amplified and used to drive the system in the direction necessary to reduce or eliminate the error.
An entire science known as control theory has been developed on this type of system.
The difference or error signal may be thought of as producing effects which move forward, from
the point of comparison to the resulting action. The comparison itself depends on a signal which
is fed back from the output of the process to be compared with the reference or input signal. The
forward flow and feedback of signals form a loop around which information flows, see Figure 3.

Various names are given to the signals in different industrial or other contexts, but the meanings
of words in any one of the columns below are much the same:

The motor is a permanent magnet type and can be represented in idealized form as in Figure 5,
where Ra is the armature resistance and T1, T2 are the actual motor terminals.
If the motor is stationary and a voltage Va is applied, a current Ia flows which causes the motor
to rotate. As the motor rotates a back emf Vb is generated. As the motor speeds up, the back emf
increases and Ia falls. In an ideal (loss free) motor, the armature current falls to substantially zero
and Vb approximately equals Va. Thus if Va is varied slowly in either polarity, the motor speed
is proportional to Va, and a plot of motor speed against Va would have the form of Figure 6.
