This lecture introduces the implementation of digital control using microprocessors, highlighting the advantages over traditional analog control systems. The instructor explains how microprocessors allow for easier and cheaper adjustments in control parameters, emphasizing the shift from continuous signals to discrete points for processing. The use of DA and AD converters is discussed as essential components for interfacing with the physical world, enabling a more efficient and centralized control system in industrial settings.
