 		 #116056 - why use isolated converters?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
which can be done by connecting a cap from primary GND to secondary GND.

why use isolated converters? you will have a ground somewhere and with differential signalling a common grouns is no problem.

However, converter at every unit is a great idea, you will have a solid Vcc in every unit.

Have a look at Power Trends (TI)
