Patent number: 10509629Abstract: A control device according to the present embodiment includes a first circuit, a second circuit and an adder. The first circuit performs proportional control and integral control on the basis of a difference between an indicating value input from an outside and a feedback value output from a controlled object in accordance with the indicating value. The second circuit extracts change in manipulated variable input to the controlled object in accordance with the indicating value and generates and outputs a reverse bias value that causes reverse change to the extracted change. The adder adds an output value of the first circuit to the reverse bias value to output an addition value obtained by the addition as the manipulated variable.Type: GrantFiled: March 8, 2018Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Assignees: Kabushiki Kaisha Toshiba, Toshiba Electronic Devices & Storage CorporationInventor: Yoshihide Suzuki
