A modern power grid needs to become smarter in order to provide an affordable,
reliable, and sustainable supply of electricity. For these reasons, a smart grid is
necessary to manage and control the increasingly complex future grid. Certain
smart grid elements including renewable energy, storage, mi ...
The field of cyber security, or information security, or information

If the space around us could adapt to our needs and intentions, then our lives
would be much simpler. We would have to spend less time on our daily chores,
we would be more productive and, hopefully, we would live in a less worrisome

ABSTRACTThe flyback power stage is a popular choice for single and multiple output dc-to-dc converters at powerlevels of 150 Watts or less. Without the output inductor required in buck derived topologies, such as theforward or push-pull converter, the component count and cost are reduced. This appli ...
If register should be written or read.This value is passed to the calback functions which support either reading or writing register values. Writing means that the application registers should be updated and reading means that the modbus protocol stack needs to know the current register values.See a ...
VME has been the de-facto bus standard for Commercial off the Shelf(COTS ) Circuit Card Assemblies since the 1980's. VME boards have proven to be remarkably capable of evolving to support newer technologies with innovations such as VME Subsystem Bus, PCI Mezzanine Cards(PMC's) and VME320.How ...
