In the context of robust control theory and applications, the well-known variable structure approach and the so-called binary control approach offer both interesting properties and disadvantages. In this paper, the idea of combining the two techniques in order to define a cascade structure exploiting the desirable features of both approaches is discussed, and its natural applicability to the control of a nonlinear electrical actuator is shown by a simulation case
