Lab 6: Testing DC Motor with Manual and PID Controller

The derivative (D) controller is rarely used in PID.

The PID controller works by continuously adjusting the control input to maintain the desired output in the presence of disturbances.

Some disadvantages of PID controllers include the potential for instability, difficulties in tuning, and the inability to handle nonlinear systems well.
