Controllers

In the last section, we looked at what a sensor and an actuator are and how they work. In this section, we look at the controllers that are going to read data from these sensors or control the actuators.

We are going to look at three types of controller:

  • Integrated controllers
  • Assembled controllers
  • System on Chips
The first two types are not industry-standard names. I have used this nomenclature to explain the concepts better.
