One Pattern. Seven Layers. The Same Controller at Every Level.
The most important design decision in Quantum Battery Seed Two is the recursive architecture. Every generation — from a 10-cell module to a million-cell plant — uses the same controller pattern: 10 sub-units managed through a standardized interface, plus 1 hot spare for N+1 redundancy.
The Standardized Tier Interface
Every sub-unit in the hierarchy presents identical signals to its parent controller: power output, power available, efficiency, temperature, health status, telemetry, fault, and ready. The parent sends back: enable, power request, and configuration data. That is the entire contract.
A G6 plant controller talks to G5 farm controllers using the same protocol that a G1 module controller uses to talk to G0 cells. The interface never changes. The scale changes.
The Controller State Machine
Every tier controller runs the same state machine: INIT, DISCOVERY, CONFIGURE, BALANCE, EXPORT, MONITOR, REBALANCE, FAULT_ISOLATE. When a sub-unit faults, the controller isolates it, activates the hot spare, rebalances load, and continues exporting — all without human intervention.
Why Recursive Matters
Recursive architecture means the system is self-similar at every scale. Testing a G1 module tests the same control logic that runs a G6 plant. Training an operator on one tier trains them on all tiers. Building one controller IC serves every generation. The complexity of a million-cell plant is managed by six layers of the same simple pattern.
