TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an integrated digital controller for independent control of power systems, particularly lighting network branches, and separate control of individual branch components, using a direct spread spectrum method that eliminates side lobes from a cross-correlation function.

TL;DR: In this paper, a zero current detector capable of detecting both forward and reverse zero current points facilitates the compensation of parasitic capacitance and parasitic oscillations is presented, which is well suited to integration with an inexpensive digital controller such as a microprocessor.

TL;DR: In this paper, a power controller for flourescent lamp dimming using all digital internal and external programmable controls is described, with a specific ASIC and a gate array and a microprocessor sharing parallel functions.

TL;DR: In this article, an integrated digital controller for controlling power electronic devices and method of its use, comprises an analog-to-digital converting scanner module for scanning analog data inputs and used to create digital data correlated with the analog inputs, a loop control module operative to receive the digital data and used for controlling at least one control loop.

TL;DR: In this paper, a programmable digital power controller for gas discharge devices such as fluorescent lamps or other devices using all digital internal and external programmable controls is described, and a specific ASIC is described.
