What is a feedback control loop?

A feedback loop is the part of a system in which some portion (or all) of the system's output is used as input for future operations. Each feedback loop has a minimum of four stages. During the first stage, input is created. During the second stage, input is captured and stored.

What are the 2 feedback control loops or system?

There are two main types of feedback control systems: negative feedback and pos- itive feedback. In a positive feedback control system the setpoint and output values are added. In a negative feedback control the setpoint and output values are subtracted.
