Abstract
A hydraulic circuit arrangement includes a plurality of electronically-commutated pumps providing flow to a common hydraulic line, the plurality of electronically-commutated pumps including one or more quantized electronically-commutated pumps and one or more unquantized electronically-commutated pumps. A controller includes a pressure controller and a flow divider. The pressure controller is configured to receive a pressure signal corresponding to the pressure within the common hydraulic line, to compare the pressure signal to a demanded pressure, and to determine a target flow value required to produce the demanded pressure. The flow divider is configured to receive the target flow value and allocate the target flow value into a quantized target flow value for allocation among the one or more quantized electronically-commutated pumps and an unquantized target flow value for allocation among the one or more unquantized electronically-commutated pumps.
