Analog systems are process of analogue signals which can take any value within a range, for example the output from an LDR (light sensor) or a microphone.
Mechanical control system for an compressor?
ATC stands for Automatic temperature control. atc is a sort of sub-discipline of HVAC and the ATC drawing is for the controls contractor to understand the control logic the HVAC engineer has intended for the digital controls to meet system performance. Some examples are air/water flow rates, Humidity control, temperature control, etc.
Digital Control of welding when welding
For very complex process control, such as used in the chemical industry, may require algorithms and performance beyond the capability of even high-performance PLCs. Very high-speed or precision controls may also require customised solutions; for example, aircraft flight controls.* Manufacturing Industry- Lead acid battery plant, complete manufacturing system- Extruder factory, silo feeding control system * Travel Industry- Escalator operation, monitored safety control system- Lift operation, monitored safety control system * Aerospace- Water tank quenching system * Printing Industry- Offset web press print register control system- Multi stage screen washing system * Food Industry- Filling machine control system- Main factory feed water pump duty changeover system * Textile Industry- Indutrial batch washing machine control system- Closed loop textile shrinkage system * Hospitals- Coal fired boiler fan change-over system * Film Industry- Servo axis controlled camera positioning system * Corrugating- Main corrugator machine control system- BOBST platten press drive and control system * Plastics Industry- Extruder factory, silo feeding control system- Injection moulding control system * Agriculture- Glasshouse heating, ventilation & watering system * Foundry- Overhead transportation system from casting process to shotblasting machine * Leisure- Roller coaster ride and effects control system- Greyhound track 'Rabbit' drive system
The pneumatic system controlled by electronic systems.
An analog control system is one that presents data by measuring a continuous variable. This reports the data back in voltage or pressure.
Analog system simulation is more sensitive to the changes in the parameters compared to the digital system. This is because of the continuous nature of the analog signals, unlike the discreet nature of the digital signals. Digital systems have gates which can not be used in Analog system.

Analog would be like a sliderule which is based on logarithms. Digital would be like a calculator.
Greater possible accuracyNo driftNo temperature sensitivityReduced noiseNo aging problemsEasier to change if neededHowever where speed of response is critical the analog control system may be preferred over digital.
Its an IC which converts the analog signal at its input into digital output suitable for digital applications. It is an essential part of any digital system
An DAC convert digital signal to analog signal i.e Digital to Analog Converter. An ADC convert analog signal to digital signal i.e Analog to Digital Converter.
The clock time of analog to digital converters depends on the design of the converter, which depends on the performance expectations for the system.
An analog system is usually simple requiring few components and gives results almost instantlyA digital system gives repeatable results with no drift or temperature sensitivity that can be as precise as desired
In analog ckt there is more distortion but in digital there is no distortion. Analog is a continues value digital is a discrite value(0 or 1). To measure analog is very difficult but in digital it is very easy. compare to analog the digital system is very compart for us. H.L.Kiran
