Generally, a transducer is used at the measuring site to obtain the required information easily and safely. The transducer is a device that converts one form of energy in to another. For example, a strain gauge when subjected to pressure or force(physical energy) undergoes a change in its resistance(electrical energy). An instrumentation system is used to measure the output signal produced by a transducer and often to control the physical signal producing it. The input stage is composed of a preamplifier and some of transducer, depending on the physical quantity to be measured.

ADC Trainer (LT-3010) 2. Digital multimeter 3. Patching cards The flash ADC is also known as the parallel comparator ADC and is the faster and the most expensive one. The circuit has a resistive divider network, 4 op-amps comparator and 4 lines to 2-line priority encoder. The comparator is built in such a way inputs are equal. Now a comparator voltage is available at each node of the resistive divider. The entire resistors are of equal value. Therefore the voltage levels available are equally divided between VR and the ground. The circuit compare takes place simultaneously instead of sequentially therefore the circuit has high speed. The typical conversion time is 100ns. The conversion time is restricted only by the speed of the comparator and of the priority encoder. The disadvantage is number of comparators needed almost doubles for each added bit. 15 Format No. DCE/Stud/LM/34/Issue:00/Revision:00

37 The bode plot is the frequency response plot of the transfer function of a system. A Bode plot consists of two graphs. One is a plot of the magnitude of a sinusoidal transfer function versus log ω. the other is a plot of the phase angle of sinusoidal transfer function versus log w. The bode plot can be drawn for both open loop and closed loop transfer function. Usually the bode plot is drawn for open loop system. The standard representation of the logarithmic magnitude of open loop transfer function of G(jω) is 20 log G( j ) where the base of the logarithm is 10. The unit used in this representation of the magnitude is the decibel, usually abbreviated db. The curve are drawn on semi log paper, using the log scale (abscissa) for frequency and the linear scale (ordinate) for either magnitude (in decibels) or phase angle (in degrees). The main advantage of the bode plot is that multiplication of magnitudes can be converted into addition. Also a simple method for sketching an approximate log-magnitude curve is available. Determination of Phase and Gain Margin from Bode Plot The gain margin in db is given by the negative of db magnitude of G(jω) at the phase cross-over frequency, ωpc. The ωpc is the frequency at which phase of G(jω) is if the db magnitude of G(jω) at ωpc is negative then gain margin is positive and vice versa. Let Φgc be the phase angle of G(jω) at gain cross over frequency wgc. The ωgc is the frequency at which the db magnitude of G(jω) is zero. Now the phase margin, is given by, = Φgc. if Φgc is less than then phase margin is positive and vice versa. Nyquist stability criterion: If the G(S) H(S) contour in the G(S) H(S) plane corresponding to Nyquist contour in the s-plane encircles the point (-1+j0) in the anticlockwise direction as many times as the number of half s-plan poles of G(S) H(S), then the closed loop system is stable. In examining the stability of linear control systems using the Nyquist stability criterion, the following three situations. 1. There is no encirclement of -1+j0 point. This implies that the system is stable if there are no poles of G(S) H(S) in the right half s-plan. If there are poles on right half s-plane then the system is unstable. 2. An anticlockwise encirclement or (or encirclements) of -1+j0 point. In this case the system is stable if the number of anticlockwise encirclement is same as the number of poles of G(S)H(S) in the right half s- plane. If the number of encirclement is not equal to number of poles on right half s-plane then the system is unstable. 3. There is a clockwise encirclement (or encirclements) of the -1+j0 point. In this case the system is always unstable. Root locus: The root locus technique is powerful tool for adjusting the location of closed loop poles to achieve the desired system performance by varying one or more system parameters. 37 Format No. DCE/Stud/LM/34/Issue:00/Revision:00

46 Aim: To study the P, PI, PID controller response for the first order and second order transfer function using MATLAB software. Apparatus required: System with Matlab Theory: The transient response of a practical control system often exhibits damped oscillation before reaching steady state value. In specifying the transient response characteristics of control systems to unit step input, it is common to specify the following: i)delay Time(Td) ii) Rise time (Tr) iii) Peal time ( Tp) iv) Max. Overshoot (Mp) v) Settling time (Ts) Proportional control: The output of the controller is proportional to input U(t) = Kp*e(t),where e(t) = error signal; U(t) controller output; Kp = proportional constant. It amplifies the error signal and increases loop gain*. Hence steady state tracking accuracy, disturbance signal rejection and relative stability are improved. Its drawbacks are low sensitivity to parameter variation and it produces constant steady state error. Proportional + Integral Control: The output of the PI controller is given by U (t) = Kp[e (t) + (1/τi) e(t) dt ],where Kp is the proportionality constant and Ti is called the integral time. This controller is also called RESET controller. It introduces a zero in the system and increases the order by 1. The type number of open loop system is increased by 162 It eliminates steady state error. Damping ratio remains same. Increase in order decreases the stability of system. Proportional + Integral Control + Differential Control: The output of a PID controller is given by U (t) = Kp[ e(t) + (1/ τi) e(t) dt + τd de(t)/dt ].The PID controller introduces a zero in the system and increases the damping. This reduces peak overshoot and reduces rise time. Due to increase in damping, ultimately peak overshoot reduces. The stability of the system improves. In PID controller, all effects are 46 Format No. DCE/Stud/LM/34/Issue:00/Revision:00

47 combined. Proportional control stabilizes gain but produces steady state error. Integral control eliminates error. Derivative controller reduces rate of change of error.

49 Expt. No.: 14 STUDY OF AC SYNCHRO TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER Aim: To study the operation of AC synchro transmitter and receiver Apparatus required: S.No Name of the Equipment Quantity 1 Synchro transmitter and receiver unit 1 Nos 2 Multimeter (Digital / Analog ) 1 Nos 3 Patch cords As required Theory: A synchro is an electromagnetic transducer commonly used to convert an angular position of a shaft into an electric signal. It is commercially known as a selsyn or an autosyn. The basic synchro unit is usually called a synchro transmitter. Its construction is similar to that of three phase alternator. The stator is of laminated silicon steel and is slotted to accommodate a balanced three phase winding which is usually of concentric coil type and star connected. The rotor is dumb bell construction and its wound with a concentric coil. Thus it is seen that the input to the synchro transmitter is the angular position of its rotor shaft and the output is a set of three signal phase voltages. The magnitudes of this voltage are function of the shift position. The output of the synchro transmitter is applied to stator winding of synchro control transformer. The control transmitter is similar in construction to a synchro transmitter except for the fact that rotor of the control transformer in made cylindrical in shape so that the air gap is practically uniform. The system (transmitter and control transformer pair) acts an error detector, circulating current to the same phase but of different magnitudes flow through two stator coils. The result is establishment of an indentical flux pattern in the air gap of the control transformer as the voltage drops in resistance and lockage reactance s of two sets of stator coils are usually small.
