Control applications

With the advent of the microcomputer chip, there arose the need to distinguish between digital control and analog control. The inputs and outputs from a digital control system are no longer continuous with time, as was the case with analog control systems. The microcomputer, and indeed any computer, must share its time domain with that of the external world to which it is interfaced. As such, input and output are sampled and/or changed in discrete time intervals. Additionally, almost random events must be accounted for and correctly handled by the discrete nature of a digital control system. Continuous, discrete, and sampled data can now be handled properly, and all are now embodied in the terms automatic control and control theory.
