Introduction to Control Systems -- Introduction to Microprocessor-Based Control -- Operational Amplifiers and Signal Conditioning -- Switches, Relays, and Power-Control Semiconductors -- Mechanical Systems -- Sensors -- Direct Current Motors -- Stepper Motors -- Alternating Current Motors -- Actuators: Electric, Hydraulic, and Pneumatic -- Feedback Control Principles -- Relay Logic and Programmable Logic Controllers, and Motion Controllers -- Thermocouple Tables for Type J ([degrees]F and [degree]C) -- The Getting Started Guide for APS, Chapter 2 -- The Getting Results Guide for RS Logix 500, Chapters 1 and 5.
Review: "Modern Control Technology: Components and Systems, 2nd Edition, provides an introduction to automatic control systems and components that is both comprehensive and up-to-date. Logically organized, this book takes the reader on a journey through a control system. Each chapter examines a different functional part, followed by discussion of control units and control strategies that serves to put these parts together in a full-function control system.Summary: Thoroughly updated, this edition features new material on decibels, levers, friction, clutches and brakes, tooth rotor tachometers, vision sensors, dynamic braking of DC motors, linear motors, and flux vector AC drives. Also included is new information on popular PIC and BASIC Stamp microcontrollers, plus expanded coverage of brushless DC motors and networking used in control systems."--BOOK JACKET.
