Modular Design of a General Purpose Controller for Hybrid Electric Power Conversion System

A modular design procedure of the controller for hybrid electric power conversion system (HEPCS) with CAN bus protocol is proposed in this paper. By CAN bus protocol, users can easily set individual modules and change parameters with pre-defined data structures. Three basic modules are implemented in a HEPCS to demonstrate this concept. The experimental result shows the feasibility and advantage of this design procedure.
