Course Overview

Transfer functions, block diagrams, Routh-Hurwitz, root locus, Bode/Nyquist stability, and digital PID controller tuning. Curriculum Structure & Core Modules: • 1. Introduction to Control Systems: Open-Loop vs Closed-Loop Feedback and Performance Metrics • 2. Mathematical...

What You'll Learn

  • Model dynamic physical electromechanical systems (DC motors, inverted pendulums) as Laplace transfer functions.
  • Simplify complex multi-loop feedback architectures using block diagram reduction and Mason's gain formula.
  • Determine absolute stability of closed-loop systems using the algebraic Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion.
  • Plot root locus trajectories and determine parameter gains for desired transient response characteristics.
  • Design and tune proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers for zero steady-state error and low overshoot.

Requirements

  • Completion of CPE 210.

The PAMCET Learning Team is the institutional curriculum and content group behind course publishing on this platform. PAMCET (Professional and Academic Management Centre for Education and Training) is operated by Digitpen Hub Ltd, a company registered in Lagos, Nigeria. Courses credited to the PAMCET Learning Team are structured, organized, and published centrally by the platform rather than authored by a single named individual instructor — each course's syllabus, learning outcomes, and content are reviewed before publication under this institutional account. For questions about a specific course or to report a content issue, please use the platform's Help & Support or Contact Us pages.
