  3. Abstract:
  4. Fast fault detection and reconfiguration is necessary in power electronic converters in lots of applications to prevent further damage and to make possible the continuity of service. In this paper a very fast fault detection scheme is presented that minimizes the use of voltage sensors. A fault tolerant topology is studied. Control and fault detection system are implemented on a single FPGA and hardware in the loop experiments are performed to evaluate the detection scheme, the digital controller and the structure
