            Abstract : 
This paper presents a novel method of designing power line communication circuits, which consolidate power and data in a single bus. This method is based on power electronics topology and can derive new application circuits. The principle of the Buck-type powered-bus circuit is introduced. Taking into account the effect of transmission line, the steady-state characteristics of the circuit as well as dynamic switching characteristics are analyzed. The effectiveness of this method is verified by experimental result.
