Research output: Patent

Abstract

A cascaded architecture composed of interconnected blocks that are each designed to process constant power and eliminate bulk energy storage are provided. Further, local controls within each block natively achieve both block and system level aims, making the system modular and scalable. Further methods of providing power conversion using such interconnected clocks are also provided.
