Question:

The following circuit diagram is an open loop control for tuning on or off a light. Draw a block diagram of the control. Why is it considered open loop?

Switch V = 10.V Light Bulb R = 100.2


A: The bulb is on and stays on provided the switch is closed, day or night, needed or not, until the switch is turned off manually. Then the same reasoning applies in reverse. That is why this is considered an open loop control.
