Fundamental to the control of mechatronic devices, the servomechanism applies feedback from the device in question to regulate its position, velocity, or some other physical attribute. Successful mastery of servo control requires an understanding of a wide range of engineering disciplines, making it difficult and time-consuming

This book is essential for audio power amplifier designers and engineers for one simple reason...it enables you as a professional to develop reliable, high-performance circuits. The Author Douglas Self covers the major issues of distortion and linearity, power supplies, overload, DC-protection and reactive loading. He also tackles unusual forms of compensation and distortion produced by capacitors and fuses. This completely updated fifth edition includes four NEW chapters including one on The XD Principle, invented by the author, and used by Cambridge Audio. Crosstalk, power amplifier input systems, and microcontrollers in amplifiers are also now discussed in this fifth edition, making this book a must-have for audio power amplifier professionals and audiophiles.

Written by a seasoned expert, this authoritative and informative guide presents the technologies in the calculation of brushless DC motor time constants, material on drive sizing, and case studies illustrating key topics. The author details hardware specifications related to the operation of machine service drives and outlines troubleshooting methods for problems concerning machine nonlinearities, inertia, drive stiffness, and friction. He highlights recently developed simulation methods used to predict, assess, and improve the performance of service systems and their components and covers the function and assembly of drive systems, drive resolutions, drive ratios, and duty cycles.
