DC Servos (eBook, ePUB)

Application and Design with MATLAB

Beschreibung

Providing a balanced treatment of the theoretical and practical sides of application and design, this book distills knowledge from various branches of applied science-electrical and mechanical engineering, analog electronics, mechanics, control theory, digital electronics, embedded computing, and firmware design-into a cohesive framework. It takes readers on a journey through servo school, enabling them to design real DC servos, using modern, readily accessible parts from two bench-tested reference designs. It provides a comprehensive toolset that designers can use to craft the more complex machines that society will demand in the twenty-first century.

Autor

Stephen M. Tobin is the founder and president of Optical Tools Corporation. He received his B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of New Hampshire in 1983. He spent the first five years of his career in the motion control field, working in step motor and optical encoder design engineering with divisions of Allied-Signal and Dresser Industries. He then turned his attention to the development of electro-optical instrumentation. He joined General Eastern Instruments (now a division of General Electric) in 1988, working on closed-loop optical humidity measurement systems. While employed at General Eastern, he earned his M.S. degree in electrical engineering with a concentration in electro-optics from Tufts University in 1994. He later spent six years developing medical devices at Arthur D. Little, a world-renowned consulting firm based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Motion control continues to be a lifelong passion for Mr. Tobin, who founded Optical Tools Corporation in 2004 and continues to consult for the medical device and manufacturing automation communities. He holds four U.S. patents and is a member of the Tau Beta Pi National Engineering Honor Society.
