I have been weighing the possibility of purchasing the Finn Peacock book on PID tuning.
Anyone with experience with the book and feedback?

Check the ISA Publications. I used one of theirs years ago on PID. Not sure if this is the same one.

There is also a link there to some training modules.

 

I am leaning more to the Finn Peacock book because of the more simplified practical approach.

ISA also caters to technicians, not just engineers. Take a look at the link shown at the book site for the modules.

Are you interested in analog circuit PID or computer based PID?

 

PID control of servo motor (NOT RC) using Picmicro QEI module etc.
The book referenced appears to be geared to a practical approach.
Max.

 

Since you want to use a micro for control, have you considered Fuzzy Logic?
It's designed for digital computers unlike PID, which is an analog control system cobbled into (simulated by) a digital controller.
Fuzzy logic can also work with non-linearities in the system whereas PID is based upon the system being linear.

 

I will look into it.

Hi Max,
Please let me know your email address?
May be I could help you

Thank you so much
