Ward-Leonard Motor Generation System Introduction: A control system generally controls‚ regulates‚ and updates its output continuously based on present inputs‚ nature of the system‚ and the past outputs. In other words‚ there is a feedback mechanism that is inherent in the system‚ and is called a closed loop control system. For example‚ adding an emitter resistance to a common emitter amplifier‚ results in a negative feedback mechanism in the amplifier system – if the output current increases
