Blog 3 - Position Control of DC Motor
The objective is to make a bi-directional DC motor control driver. The DC motor is widely
popular in the industry control area because of its many good characteristics, for example: high
start torque characteristics, high performance and easy to be linear-controlled. DC motor has a
good speed control respondence and is used in speed control systems which needs high control
requirements, such as rolling mill, double-hulled tanker, high precision digital tools, etc.
DC motor angular position systems are usually controlled by proportional- derivative (PD)
control algorithms with PD coefficients tuned for optimizing operation. The objective of a PD
controller in a position control system is to maintain a position set point at a given value and be
able to accept new set-point values dynamically. Modern position control environments require
controllers that are able to cope with parameter variations and system uncertainties.
