Set Point/Comparator

Two key components of an automated process control system are the set point and the
comparator. The set point device establishes a value for the desired state. The comparator
device calculates how far the process is from this value.
By the end of this course, you will be able to
• List examples of set point devices
• Define an op-amp device
• List the functions that a comparator performs on feedback and input signals
• Understand how an error signal is produced in a differential amplifier
• Define gain
