  Model Predictive Control (MPC) can efficiently control constrained systems in
real-time applications. MPC feedback law for a linear system with linear
inequality constraints can be explicitly computed off-line, which results in an
off-line partition of the state space into non-overlapped convex regions, with
affine control laws associated to each region of the partition. An actual
implementation of this explicit MPC in low cost micro-controllers requires the
data to be "quantized", i.e. represented with a small number of memory bits. An
aggressive quantization decreases the number of bits and the controller
manufacturing costs, and may increase the speed of the controller, but reduces
accuracy of the control input computation. We derive upper bounds for the
absolute error in the control depending on the number of quantization bits and
system parameters. The bounds can be used to determine how many quantization
bits are needed in order to guarantee a specific level of accuracy in the
control input.
