Characteristics of PI controllers
A PI controller has a proportional and an integral fraction (P and I fractions).

Characteristics:
A purely P controller works theoretically undamped, i.e. it is fast and hence
dynamically favourable. It has a residual control difference, i.e. it does not
completely eliminate the effects of disturbances and is thus relatively unfavourable
from a static viewpoint.
