Course Description

This course is focused for those of you who are interested in programming and electronics, who are trying to expand their knowledge base in this field.

For those of you who are familiar with Arduino, microcontrollers, and electronics this course can give you yet another idea for new possibilities if you haven’t used PID in your DIY projects. You will find out how easy it is to implement this control systems to make your project very intelligent, sophisticated, and advanced.

For others, you will enjoy learning something new.

This course can also be exciting for someone who would like to know what PID Control systems are and some possibilities using it in your everyday projects.

This course is structured in such a way that we start from the result and then walks backward to figure out the solution and implementations with enough details that you will be empowered to design and implement PID controller in your own systems in almost no time.

My goal is to teach you closed loop control systems and how to implement such systems by using PID controllers using Arduino and microcontrollers in a very practical way (You don’t need to understand the maths behind the algorithm to build these systems)

With experience I know that if you do not have proper understanding of this amazing and very famous control system, it can remain a mystery for you. As I am targeting this course for beginners of all sorts, to give you a better understanding, I will touch on control systems in general and explain everything in a very practical way so you will get to understand them with ease.

This course covers live demonstrations of PID control systems which can be easily duplicated, improvised, and implemented by you. This course also covers some theoretical background about PID controllers and how it relates to real world system.

Rather than delving altogether in theory, my focus is to give you a better understanding and enough knowledge to empower you to immediately put your brain at work. This way you can come up with your own systems almost in no time. I have replaced the theory with lot of practical demonstrations to understand the whole concept behind PID control system.

Once you go through this course and have a better understanding of the crucial aspects of PID controllers in a closed loop system, the confusion and mystery behind PID controllers will be gone.

For all of you out there, you will enjoy learning something new and exciting.

Thank you

The given example makes it easy to relate to the PID equation

By Juan Carlos Montano Alvizo on 7/5/2025

This course presents the basics of PID controller, however it states that is for Arduino, however the course only gives two examples of sketches without any practical application.

i understood the basics of pid

By Giovani Zanelatto on 1/30/2025

The real interesting part would be the code implementation of the PID hidden in the library. How to avoid float operations, if possible... How to optimize the operations... how to avoid roud errors...

By John Hamilton on 12/15/2023

It would have been better if you had developed and explained a full arduino program without using a PID library. I know it works, but I do not learn a lot from it. I was expecting you to explain how to program the anti wind up of the integral term.

By Robert Gillespie on 4/14/2023

It was a good match. It is introducing the PID concepts slowly and that is good for learning. I thought that the demonstration was not showing enough for one to duplicate it for learning purposes. Overall, this is a good lecture series.

By Velazquez Eduardo Antonio on 2/13/2023

Claro y concreto. Buena síntesis del control PID

By Manikandan D on 5/16/2022

Excellent and clear demonstration of P, I, D terms in PID controller

By Millard Alexander on 4/8/2022

The course gives a good understanding of PID control and is a very comprehensive in the way the lectures are delivered. As a student, I will have to review certain sections to completely understand the attached sketches with respect to PID control. It would have been most appropriate to have a deeper/more understanding of the programmes attached. Overall this is a very good course for a beginner wishing to have an appreciation of PID Control

By Isaac Gonzalez on 11/21/2021

Good but very short and missing some kind of kit for students to practice the knowledge
