Ravindra Gaur . Hardware in Loop Simulation to Control the Speed of DC Motor by using PID Controller. International Journal of Computer Applications. 175, 13 ( Aug 2020), 1-4. DOI=10.5120/ijca2020920400
Speed Control of a DC Motor is essential thing in Robotics and other industrial application. There are various methods available to control the rotational speed of DC motor. In this paper the real time rotational speed control of a DC motor is presented. To control the rotational speed of DC motor in real time, controller is designed with the help of Matlab tool and the complete Hardware is interfaced with the laptop through USB port with the help of Arduino Mega Board. The low cost hardware consists of one drive motor as generator, another motor used as a sensor coupled with the drive motor, one L293D IC and an arduino mega board for interfacing with laptop. This kind of work is useful for the university students to understand the working, implementation and testing of various controller in real time. Hardware can be used to test any kind of controller designed in the Matlab.
