I have implemented a digital pid as a second order module based on the following equations
ek = sk - yk; /* Calculate error term */
rk = ek + M1;
uk = a0*rk + M2; /* Calculate output */
rk 2 = rk 1; /* Update variables */
rk 1 = rk;
M1 = -b1*rk 1 - b2*rk 2;
M2 = a1*rk 1 + a2*rk 2;

based on this output yk i have to vary the duty cycle of my pwm
sk is my setpoint of 1.2 while yk is the ADC output*resolution of ADC, so a analog value
I have the duty cycle going from 0-40. i.e 40 is 100% duty cycle
How do i set the duty cycle based on this output uk and the error ek as if error is more i have to increase the duty and if error is less i have to decrease it ?
I have wriiten a code but it doesnt work
Code: 
while(1)
{
yk=ADCRead(0);            //Read Channel 0
ek=sk-yk;                 //calculate the error
rk = ek+M1;
uk = (a0*rk)+M2;          /* Calculate output */
//new_duty=yk;                          
if(ek>1)                  // if error is positive
       {
       new_duty=init_duty+yk; //increase duty by yk
       if(new_duty>40)        // if max duty has been reached  
                     {
                     new_duty=40; // set duty to max=40
                     }  
       }  
else if(ek<0)                  // if error is negative 
           {
           new_duty=init_duty-yk; // decrement duty by yk
           if(new_duty<0)         // if min duty has been reaached
                        {
                        new_duty=0; // set duty to 0
                        }
           }
else
    {
    new_duty=4; //if error is zero set duty to 10 which is required 10% 
    }     
SetDCPWM1 (new_duty);           
SetDCPWM2 (new_duty);

My init_duty is 4 i.e 10% and the duty increment and decrement are by uk and not yk
 

The equations suggest a general time discrete second order system using the controllable canonical form. But it's not implemented in the code, M1 and M2 aren't calculated.

new_duty should be set from controller output uk. Technically, variable types, number ranges and parameter scaling matters. This details can't be seen from your code.

P.S.: A digital controller usually needs auxilary functions, particularly anti-windup. It can't be easily implemented in the canonical form, other PID impementations are better suited for it, e.g. the velocity algorithm.

I implemented them but by mistake skipped the end of the code
Code: 
rk2=rk1;                  
rk1=rk;
M1=(-b1*rk1)-(b2*rk2);
M2=(a1*rk1)+(a2*rk2);

could you tell me more on this, the variable types, parameter scaling aspects
some reference will be good
