Feedback control is a control mechanism that uses information from measurements. In a feedback control system, the output is sensed. There are two main types of feedback control systems: 1) positive feedback 2) negative feedback. The positive feedback is used to increase the size of the input but in a negative feedback, the feedback is used to decrease the size of the input. The negative systems are usually stable. A PID is widely used in feedback control of industrial processes on the market in 1939 and has remained the most widely used controller in process control until today. Thus, the PID controller can be understood as a controller that takes the present, the past, and the future of the error into consideration. After digital implementation was introduced, a certain change of the structure of the control system was proposed and has been adopted in many applications. But that change does not influence the essential part of the analysis and design of PID controllers. A proportional– integral–derivative controller (PID controller) is a method of the control loop feedback. This method is composing of three controllers [1]: 1. Proportional controller (PC) 2. Integral controller (IC) 3. Derivative controller (DC)
