Abstract :
The design of the digital feedback control systems of the plasma current and the toroidal field at the wall in the RFX experiment is presented. After a description of the equivalent circuits, the synthesis of the regulators and the obtained results are reported. The influence of parameter variations, disturbances and different sampling rates on the system performances are analysed
