Abstract
In this research, speed control of DC motor (Terco Company) type is
implementation by Matlab/Simulation and practical. A comparison is made by
Simulink modeling circuit and practical connection. The results obtained from
simulation are approximdtly similar to that obtained by practical. Also the

I. INTRODUCTION
DC motor have high liner control, retort concert and prime lofty torque [1]. The
celerity of DC motor is depicated in equation (1).

𝑉 − 𝐼𝑎 𝑅𝑎
𝑁= … … … … … (1)
𝐾Φ
The basal attribute of DC motor is that celerity of it can be adjusted by disparity its
terminal voltage. Therefore, it has better than other kinds. A proportional-integral-
derivative controller (PID) is broadly wield in industrial control systems. It is a
common feedback element [2] .

II. PID CONTROLLER

In PID controller proportional (P) control can´t eliminates steady-state error only, this
error can be abolishes by integral (I) control. The dervative (D) control action is to
axing the amplitude [3]. The block diagram of control system is depicted in figure 1.

𝑉 (𝑠) = 𝑖𝑎 (𝑠)(𝑅𝑎 + 𝑠𝐿𝑎 ) + 𝐸𝑏
𝑉 (𝑠) − 𝐸𝑏 (𝑠) = 𝑖𝑎 (𝑠)(𝑅𝑎 + 𝑠𝐿𝑎 )
𝑇(𝑠) = (𝐽𝑠 2 + 𝑠𝐵) 𝜃(𝑠)
𝑇(𝑠) = ( 𝐽𝑠 + 𝐵)𝑠 𝜃(𝑠)
