Function Documentation

void pid_init	(	pid_t *	pid,
		uint8_t	envelope,
		uint8_t	p,
		uint8_t	i,
		uint8_t	d
	)

Initializes an instance of the PID algorithm.

Parameters:

pid	pointer to the instance of the PID algorithm to initialize
envelope	number of degrees above or below the target temperature, at which the PID algorithm kicks in. Outside of this temperature range, pid_next returns 0 if the temperature is too high and 255 if it is too low.
p	gain of the proportional component for the given PID instance
i	gain of the integral component for the given PID instance
d	gain of the derivative component for the given PID instance

uint8_t pid_next	(	pid_t *	pid,
		float	current_temp
	)

Returns the next result of a given PID algorithm instance, given the current measured temperature.

The result indicates the amount of power to apply to heater belonging to the given PID instance. This function should be called at short periodic intervals.

Parameters:

pid	pointer to the PID instance for which to return the next result
current_temp	the current measured temperature in degrees celsius

Returns:

An integer between 0 and 255, indicating the relative amount of power to apply to the heater belonging to the given PID instance, in order to reach the instance's target temperature.

void pid_set_target	(	pid_t *	pid,
		float	target_temp
	)

Sets the target temperature for a given PID algorithm instance.

Parameters:

pid	pointer to the PID instance of which to set the target temperature
target_temp	target temperature in degrees celcius
