what is the difference between the microcontroller and PLC?
Answer Posted / jasmine
PLC is a special microcontroller designed for industrial applications.It is for controlling processes or machineries.Microcontroller is a microprocessor which can be used for any type of application.PLC internally uses a microcontroller to handle all inputs,outputs & logical scans.Microcontrollers are cores which can do anything you program them to do.The basic difference between the two is only the way of programming.

Dear Friends, we are planning to design Power distribution and Fiber optic in the same cabinet.Like Front side Fiber optic and Rear side Power distribution.Is it any possibility of problem occurs like interference etc? Your answer is highly appreciate.
Q1: Consider part of a control loop, which excludes the transmitter, consisting of a process, a controller and a control valve which may be represented by two dead times of 0.5 min each and three exponential lags of 0.8 min., 1.0 min. and 1.5 min. respectively. We wish to express this system as an overall first order plus dead time (FOPLD) model ie gain, time constant and process dead time. (We will see later that this is often done, to simplify controller tuning). For this exercise, gain is considered to be 1.0. (A) If the transmitter is a flow transmitter whose behaviour can be described by a dead time of 0.2 min. and an exponential lag of 0.5 min. in terms of the overall dead time and overall first order lag how can the system behaviour be approximated ? Overall dead time = Overall time constant = (B) If the transmitter is a temperature transmitter with a temperature sensor in a protecting well whose behaviour can be described by a dead time of 0.7 min. and an exponential lag of 15 min. how can the overall system behaviour be approximated now? Overall dead time = Overall time constant =
