Abstract
A computing servo capable of accurate rate and position operation with extended frequency response relative to conventional computing servos is described. The usual tachometer generator with its penalizing inertia is avoided in this design. Rate feedback is provided instead by a precision capacitor which couples the follow-up potentiometer to the input summing junction. Design objectives, compromises, and performance data are reviewed.
