The Purpose of this paper is to design and manufacture an educational system in order to demonstrate the causes and effects of electromagnetic induction.'rho educational system described in this study is a "jumping ring apparatus". This system demonstrates the principle of electromagnetic induction, a force from AC sources, Lenz's law of repulsion and transformer. The educational system is composed of a jumping ring apparatus, a sensor array, encoder, A/D converter, D/A converter and nonlinear controller. The educational system is controlled by 586 PC using Turbo C program. The sensor array is composed of 20 optical sensors. The nonlinear controller consists of nonlinear control algorithm and control board included SCR, FET and phase controller. The A/D converter is used to show the height of ring position to analog for an education purpose. The control signal calculated from the nonlinear control of algorithm send control board through 8 bit D/A convertor. Experiment results are given to verify that Proposed nonlinear controller is useful in on line control of the educational system.al system.
