Thanks, Walter. That's interesting stuff, but as you say that guy was working with a very clean sine wave at a high s/n ratio. Relatively speaking, I'm trying to process some real junk.

The problem is not the speed/frequency of the signal. 100Hz and 1000Hz isn't all that fast, especially to a 30+MHz clock PIC. The signal is analog, not digital, and it's not at all clean.
If it...
Thanks for the files.
The problem that I see right off is that the PDF says that the worse case s/n ratio for that design is 23dB. That's quite reasonable for working with DTMF signals off a phone...
Thanks for the reply, Alain.
A simple single op amp bandpass filter is used in both the 100 and 1KHz segments prior to the NE567s. I haven't swept them using a variable oscillator and a scope, but...
I have an old (1983) Heathkit clock that synchronizes itself to the time code information broadcast by US radio station WWV (the 5, 10 & 15 MHz signals, not VLF like new consumer type clocks) that I...
The application was a rewind control on a rather elderly commercial printing press.
The original setup was a commercial PID board made up of *many* op amps. At its best it was cranky acting when...
A word of advise to anyone who needs to do PID control with a PIC, and is thinking of using this subroutine but is concerned about how well it works, you needn't worry. I used it to implement a...
The routine works like a champ!
Did the first trial run-up today. No problem at all with mono-polar operation. A few tweaks on the constants and it's working great. Need to make a small hardware...
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, makes sense to me. The process does accept a variable input, not on-off. It's a DC drive that I'm generating a reference voltage for using hardware PWM on a 18F2320 @...
I need to get a simple PID application going using a PIC, and this PID include looks to be ideal for what I need to do.
The system I'm working with doesn't incorporate an output device that...
