The goal of this bachelor thesis is to develop a control system that controls the temperature of a microthruster. This system also needs to acquire data for research. The microthruster contains a resistor that is used both as a heater and as a sensor. To facilitate the acquisition of data and the testing of the control system, a lab setup with a Keithley 2450 SourceMeter power supply was used. LabVIEW was used to control the power supply and to execute the control algorithms. The final system consists of a microcontroller that runs the control algorithms based on proportional-integral-derivative (PID) control developed in this thesis. The PID values can be adapted with use of the graphical user interface (GUI). A read-out circuit and current supply will be part of the integrated system. These circuits will be developed by other groups that are part of this bachelor project.
