This paper is presenting a field bus protocol for modular converter systems. It is optimized for minimal cycle times and synchronisation of the modules to ±5 ns. The principle of operation is shown in detail, implemented on an FPGA based prototype system and validated by multiple measurements.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
