Abstract
A digital servo system adapted for use in a dual mode coarse-fine servo system to control a movable member from a starting position to an at rest destination position. The digital servo generates a pulse train in response to varying space phase cyclic analog position signal A from an encoder coupled to the movable member. Each cycle of an analog position signal represents a small incremental amount of movement by the movable member. The pulse train provides a change in its state in time with the varying position signals. In the preferred embodiment, eight changes occur per cycle. The pulse train is integrated to provide a velocity signal which is compared with a command velocity signal.
