Which of the following controllers has maximum offset ?

Correct answer: A. P-controller

  • A. P-controller
  • B. P-I controller
  • C. P-D controller
  • D. P-I-D controller

Explanation

A proportional controller alone leaves a steady-state error, called offset, and its offset is not removed by derivative action. Integral action in PI and PID controllers eliminates offset, making the P controller the intended answer.
