2.3 MEASURE AND CONTROL FUNCTIONAL BLOCK DIAGRAM
The main part of a digital instrument is the measuring stage. The base is a highly accurate Analog to Digital converter.
The measuring signal is than processed trough a couple of stages as shown below. In general the path is: ADC scaling,
filtering, linearization (look-up or polynomial), Differentiation (gas flow sensors only), display filtering. In case of a
control system this signal is used to control a valve. The control loop consists of an enhanced PID controller (See the
chapter “Control parameters”).
