Abstract
The present disclosure presents techniques to facilitate improving operation of an electrical system, which includes a bus structure that cascades multiple electrical devices. The bus structure includes a first outer conductive layer implemented as a positive layer; a second outer conductive layer implemented as a negative layer; a first intermediate conductive layer neighboring the first outer conductive layer; a second intermediate conductive layer neighboring the second outer conductive layer; and a third intermediate conductive layer neighboring the second intermediate conductive layer, in which the third intermediate conductive layer is implemented as an inter-device layer that facilitates electrically coupling at least two of the electrical devices in series. The first intermediate conductive layer is implemented as a negative layer and the second intermediate conductive layer is implemented as a positive layer to facilitate reducing stray inductance and/or increasing stray capacitance introduced in the electrical system during operation.
