It is a common situation in electronics to have a control loop, that is some sort of feedback that drives the input to a system such as a motor or a heater based upon a sensor to measure something ...

Self-regulating systems with feedback loops, i.e., the routing back of the output of a system to its input, have existed since antiquity and have since become an integral part of modern technology.

Despite the common perception of temperature control as a mature and largely unchanging area of technology, applications such as injection-molding processes increasingly require not only precise ...
