Simulink model to simulate themotor steady-state and dynamic speed (step) responses, and compare the results with theexperimental data. Experiment 7. DC Motor Closed-Loop Speed Control: Students build an analog controllerusing op amps for dc motor closed-loop speed control. A DC generator-tachometer is used todevelop a feedback signal, which is proportional to the motor speed. Controller settings areadjusted and the motor speed step response is then measured and plotted. Two differentcontrollers are studied: a proportional (P) controller, and a proportional-plus-integral (PI)controller. After the experiments, a Simulink model for each of the two controllers is run, usingthe controller setting(s) determined during the experiments. The theoretical

integration using VHDL. This is accomplished by introducing digital design principles,bread-board debugging techniques, design and simulation using CAD tools and verifications onFPGA/CPLD boards. In general, student feedback to this course was very positive. The overallevaluations of this course were 3.50/4.0 (fall 2003) and 3.75/4.0 (spring 2004). The author alsosuggests that VHDL be introduced at junior level after the digital system design is finished. Fromthese teaching experiences in IPFW, the author concludes that integrating CAD andFPGA/CPLD instead of the early introduction of HDL can better help students to learn thedigital logic systems in a teaching-oriented university.References[1] S.

Engineersplay a central role in creating infrastructure in the world by acting as problem solvers who applytheir knowledge and experience to projects that meet human needs. They work on a wide rangeof issues and projects, and as a result, how engineers work can have a significant impact onprogress toward sustainable development.
