PWM switching frequency and resolution. Because the ATmega328P master clock operates at 16 MHz and the maximum TIMER2 divisor is 1024, the minimum PWM sampling frequency is ~30 Hz, yielding four levels of resolution control. However, if we further divide the ATmega328P master clock frequency by 8, then the PWM frequency is 3.75 Hz and five-bit (32 level) resolution is achieved. Considering many practical applications, a sampling rate of ~4 Hz with five-bit resolution was an acceptable trade-off.
A PID controller seeks to keep some input variable close to a desired setpoint by adjusting an output. The way in which it does this can be 'tuned' by adjusting.
Implementing both TIMER2 pre-scalar 1024 divisor and master clock divisor 8 is required to reach a PWM frequency of 16 MHz/(1024*256*8*2) = 3.83 Hz. The master clock was divided in software with the clock_prescale_set(clock_div_8); function which, of course, has a similar effect on the delay(); millis() instructions. Delay values must be divided proportionally. The Arduino standard PID_v1 library was also edited for the same reason and a modified PID_v1R library is included in the zip archive at the article link. Testing To debug and validate this design, an Arduino Nano and breadboard were used with two LEDs, an SSR, and a 60W incandescent light bulb ( Figure 8). It was easy to see the LEDs flash at a slow rate (PWM cycle time) and the LED brightness change (PWM duty cycle).
Arduino Nano test circuit. The definitive test was switching a 120V resistive load (60W light bulb). To my joy, flashing and variable intensity was observed.
This was the extent of bench testing before deployment. Discussion This was a satisfying project because I learned a lot about PID and made a practical PID temperature control device. The Arduino IDE and libraries made programming and testing a breeze.
A few quick points: • Online cost of hardware is very cheap ($20) and can be assembled by almost anyone in just seconds. • ATmega328P microcontroller performance provides for both rapid sampling (4 Hz) and five-bit PWM SSR switching. Along with a wide temperature range (0-1024°C), this unit is ready for a variety of applications. • Keypad selection of temperature profiles enables the user to operate stand-alone at the remote process site. • Only 30% of program memory and 60% dynamic memory are used, leaving plenty of space for user enhancements.
Some practical applications might include vegetable canning, rice cooker, slow cooker, alcohol fermentation, or an SMT solder oven. Someday, I’m going to turn the PID problem around and make a device that senses meat temperature and indicates the remaining cooking time. The Thanksgiving turkey will be cooked perfectly every time.

From Wikipedia: 'A PID controller calculates an 'error' value as the difference between a measured [Input] and a desired setpoint. The controller attempts to minimize the error by adjusting [an Output].' So, you tell the PID what to measure (the 'Input',) Where you want that measurement to be (the 'Setpoint',) and the variable to adjust that can make that happen (the 'Output'.) The PID then adjusts the output trying to make the input equal the setpoint. For reference, in a car, the Input, Setpoint, and Output would be the speed, desired speed, and gas pedal angle respectively. Tuning Parameters The black magic of PID comes in when we talk about HOW it adjusts the Output to drive the Input towards Setpoint.
There are 3 Tuning Parameters (or 'Tunings'): Kp, Ki & Kd. Adjusting these values will change the way the output is adjusted. All of these can be achieved depending on the values of Kp, Ki, and Kd. So what are the 'right' tuning values to use? There isn't one right answer. The values that work for one application may not work for another, just as the driving style that works for a truck may not work for a race car.
