Electric Bike Control Designed and Implemented Completely with VisSim/Embedded Controls Developer by Visual Solutions Inc.
Electric Motion Systems (EMS) wanted to create the world's most efficient electric bicycle. Dr. Ziaur Rahman, director of Electrical Controls at EMS, had the design expertise to create a sophisticated space vector control with regenerative braking for a permanent magnet synchronous motor; however, he did not have low-level C and assembler experience, nor did he have bit-level product knowledge of the new TI F2801 digital signal controller that he wanted to use as his controller.

Initially, Rahman thought he would have to hire several embedded coders to help him with his design. Engineering colleages, however, recommended VisSim/Embedded Controls Developer based on their success with the product. Convinced, Rahman decided to give it a try and see how far it would take him.

A Visual Interactive approach to Digital signal Processing by Cuthbert Nyack
This site contains a wealth of information for DSP designers on Filters, FFTs, Z-Transforms and much more, with several java applets to demonstrate the features being discussed.

The section of Poles and Zeros is very informative on how pole zero placement affects the frequency reponse in sampled systems.
