A differentiator is usually not a part of a control system because it______________?

Correct answer: C. increases input noise

  • A. reduces damping
  • B. reduces the gain margin
  • C. increases input noise
  • D. increases error

Explanation

Differentiation magnifies high-frequency components, including unwanted measurement noise. This noise amplification is why an ideal differentiator is generally avoided or filtered in practical control systems.
