Control system abstraction
• The feedback control system acts to minimize the sensitivity of the
output y to the disturbance d, producing an output that approximates
reference input r (in this case the voltage ref voltage)
• A sensor detects the output y to send back as feedback. Any detector
adds noise. This is represented by n.
• The Plant produces the needed output y (Io in this case). The plant
here is the power transistor bank.
• The Controller drives the Plant with u based on the error input e.
• y = (Pd + CPr + CPn) / (1 + CPF)

Noise and Disturbance Parameters
• Disturbance d is produced within Plant, and consists of the noise and
drift of the power transistors. Based on typical power transistors, and
expected thermal fluctuations in the water cooled transistor bank, d
produces a disturbance in Io (without feedback) having approximate
spectral density as a fraction of Io at frequency f of (0.5 * 10-4 / (1 + f) )
per 𝐻𝑧. Io is 2000 amps.
• From data sheets, n has estimated noise density as fraction of Io of
1.6*10-7 per 𝐻𝑧 at 1 Hz and 2*10-8 per 𝐻𝑧 above 10 Hz.

Primary goals of Controller
• Stable system
• even when various system parameters vary over ranges of expected variation.
• Minimum effect of disturbance d
• Minimize ∂y/ ∂d, the contribution of the disturbance to the output: ∂y/∂d = P /
(1 + CPF)
• Minimum effect of sensor noise n
• Avoid passing noise n to Plant output at frequencies where the noise will add
error

Performance
• ∂y/∂d is 0.01 at 150 Hz.
• At 150 Hz, d has noise 0.5 * 10-4 / 150 = 0.33 * 10-6 per 𝐻𝑧.
• ∂y/∂d is 0.01 so noise at y is 0.33 * 10-8 per 𝐻𝑧.
• Q of magnet-filter capacitor circuit LM,CM is 3 (dissipation is eddy
currents and hysteresis in the magnet steel). Thus resonance is 30 Hz
wide and the noise therein is 0.33 * 10-8 * 30 = 1.8 * 10-8 RMS
relative to Io. The effect on the magnet current is larger by Q:
• 0.54 * 10-7 RMS
• Contribution of disturbance d at other frequencies is smaller
• The LM,CM filters out frequencies above 150 Hz. ∂y/∂n is
approximately 1.0 below this frequency, so the contribution of n to y is
2.5*10-8 per oC, and 2.5*10-7 of Io RMS noise, up to 150 Hz.
