The closed loop fan controller works by comparing desired speed with actual speed and generating a fan command to minimize the difference. In concept, this can be implemented very simply.

UNDERSTANDING CLOSED-LOOP FAN SPEED CONTROL By Ken W. Gay, SMSC When implementing cooling solutions for electronic equipment, system designers are confronted with a complex set of variables. The ...

With a smart controller, the phase angle can be adjusted to provide a linear control feedback. With a closed-loop, smart controller, a true linear speed change can be provided.

A feedback-control system with open-loop gain of 1 and phase of –180° degrees oscillates when you close the loop around it. A gain stage in the controller allows you to move the open-loop magnitude ...

With closed-loop control, poor performance typically manifests itself as deviations from set point. By analyzing these deviations, one can determine if they are caused by suboptimal controller tuning ...

The biggest improvement is that AR2 had a closed-loop control system, and AR3 is open-loop. If something bumps the arm or it crashes, the bot will recover its previous position automatically.

In real control systems often a synthesis of open and closed loop, feedback and feed-forward, SISO and MIMO controllers are used in sequential, hierarchical, nested or networked combination.

A closed-loop heating system comprises a heat source, means for temperature feedback (i.e., thermocouple), and controller. In a closed-loop heating system, the controller—usually a PLC or a ...
