Switching power supplies rely on feedback control loops to ensure that the required voltage and current are maintained under varying load conditions. Design of the feedback control loop influences ...

Closed-loop control systems of insulin delivery may improve glycemic outcomes in young children with type 1 diabetes. The efficacy and safety of initiating a closed-loop system virtually are unclear.

In 2012, Automation World published an article looking at the decision factors faced when choosing electric or pneumatic actuators. More than a decade later, manufacturing engineers and OEMs still ...

Currently, one closed-loop system, the Medtronic MiniMed 670G, is in commercial use in the United States, but randomized trials are needed to assess its efficacy and safety. 8 Such a system, which ...

NewScale Technologies' new M3 micro actuatormodule is smaller, more precise and easier to integrate than traditionalelectromagnetic motor systems. Each module is a complete closed-loop motioncontrol ...

Step motors are popular first and foremost because they are easy to use. They do not require an encoder to maintain their position, and unlike DC brush or brushless DC motors when used for positioning ...

The goal of this three-part series of articles is to provide a more in-depth understanding of gain error and how it can be influenced by the actual parameters of an ...

When implementing cooling solutions for electronic equipment, system designers are confronted with a complex set of variables. The cooling requirements are typically dynamic, and ambient temperatures ...
