A PID controller for Arduino that implements advanced features often missing from standard libraries. Designed for advanced control strategies.

"Windup" occurs when the integral term grows indefinitely while the actuator is saturated (at max limit). Standard PID calculates d(Error)/dt. This library calculates ...
