Abstract: A closed loop control system achieves high speed operation commensurate with low resolution A/D converters which, at the same time, is capable of accepting and using higher resolution control signals. A control loop includes a differencing device for providing an error signal produced as a difference between a reference value and an output value related to the controlled parameter, D/A converter and integrator, producing an output value for device control. The feedback loop includes an A/D converter. The reference value and reference value input to the differencing device as well as the D/A converter accept digital signals of resolution greater than those produced by the A/D converter.
