Has anyone implemeneted a PID controller on an HCS12 ? I've founf a Motorla application note that describes how to do one on an HC11 with a built in maths co-processor, but nothing for the HCS12. I'm trying to control the pressure in a cylinder, that has a varying input pressure, and a proportional valve between the two, controlled by a PWM output. I've also got the signal from a pressure sensor that tells me what the pressure is in the cylinder. At the moment I'm controlling it with a simple lookup table, which works, but takes quite a bit of setting up, and if something changes (say demand from the cylinder) it tends to mess it up. So I want to convert it to closed loop. Just wondered if anyone has any thoughts or examples on this before I start from scratch ! Andy |

PID Controller on HCS12 ??

Andrew: I have implemented a servo controller as a school project that uses a PID controller written using floating point and developed with Codewarrior and Hiware C Cross compiler. If you like, email me and I will forward you the source code. The project uses a VB based HMI that communicates to the HCS12 through the SCI.

Dear Len I am quite intrigued by this thread because I am working on a HCS12 based controller for a small wind turbine generator and had already been wondering whether "fuzzy" logic would be something that could be applied to maximum power point tracking. Could you indicate some literature to learn about PID controllers (what does "PID" stand for?), and evtl. how it might be applied to embedded systems? Many thanks!

Hello again, Excuse, have just found the first part of the response: http://www.engin.umich.edu/group/ctm/PID/PID.html (PID = proportional, integral, derivative controller)... I would still be very interested to learn more about how this might be done on an embedded system, if anyone has any pointers. Many thanks!

Hello Len I would be very interested to learn from your example of PID control -- would you email me the C-code of your school project? Many thanks in advance!
