This paper presents a strategy to drive built in-type spindle induction motor which is used as CNC(Computer Numerical Control) in the industry. Gopinath model flux estimator which is composed of current model to be profitable in the low speed range and voltage model to be profitable in the high speed range is used for rotor flux estimation. Moreover this paper presents to drive the spindle motor in the high speed range by using the flux weakening control. High speed operation of spindle motor in the field weakening region is verified through simulations and experiments.

A variable speed wind turbine simulation model for grid connection is developed based on PSCAD/EMTDC. The model consists of wind model, rotor dynamics, synchronous generator, power converter, transformer, distribution line and infinite bus. Implementation of blade characteristics and power converter control strategies are included. Several transient case studies are performed including wind speed change, local load change and grid-side voltage unbalance using developed simulation model. The results of this work can be utilized for study of actual interaction between wind turbine and grid for reliable operation and protection of power system.

The charged particle type display have characteristics of high contrast ratio and wide viewing angle, quick response time. We used the yellow(-) and the black(+) colored particles, which is respectively addressed to the cells of upper and rear panel by using electric field. Our independent addressing method has strong points compared to the mixed particle putting method. After addressing, we packaged two panels and did aging process, and then panel is driven by matrix method of four channel electrodes. Layers of particles are controlled by height of cell barriers and needed minimum two layers. When positive voltage is applied to the upper electrode, the yellow particles with negative charge move toward the upper substrate and the black particles with positive charge move toward opposite direction.

In this paper, we have desired and implemented of ASK modulator MMIC operating at 5.8 GHz for OBE used in AGPS(Automatic Gate Passing System). The proposed ASK modulator MMIC was implemented to apply a single supply voltage of 3 V to the drain in order to decrease ACP(Adjacent Channel Power). As a result, it is exhibits a broad linear modulation range from 0.7 V to 3 V and an On/off characteristic over 40 dB. The layouts of ASK modulator MMICs was designed and fabricated by using ETRI 0.57m MESFET library The chip size was 1.0mm $\times$x1.0mm.

Thin paper proposes a new three-phase rectifier that actively shapes the input current sinusoidal by means of two rectifier bridges, each followed by a dc-dc boost converter. The proposed approach draws sinusoidal input current at unity power factor and has output voltage regulation capability The size and weight of magnetic material Is reduced by Incorporating a low KVA three-phase autotransformer and by directly connecting the dc outputs each other without using low frequency interphase transformer(IPT). The operation principle is described along with simple control method, and experimental results on a 1.5KW prototype are provided.

In this paper, dc-link voltage control of a grid-connected QZSI is presented. Since the input current of the ZSI is discontinuous, a capacity with relatively large capacitance should be connected to the output of the PV array in order to reduce the current ripple. Due to the presence of the impedance network inductor in series with the PV array, the QZSI can achieve continuous input current flow. Several dc-link voltage control methods are compared and the method for power quality improvement is also presented. The performance of the proposed method is verified through both simulation and experimental results.

Solar power generation systems require maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control to operate PV panels at their maximum power point (MPP). Most conventional MPPT algorithms are based on the slope-tracking concept. A typical slope-tracking method is the perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm. The P&O algorithm measures the current and voltage of a PV panel to find the operating point of the voltage at which the calculated power is maximized. However, the measurement error of the sensor causes irregularity in the calculation of the generated power and voltage control. This irregularity leads to the problem of not finding the correct MPP operating point. In this work, the power output of a PV panel based on the P&O algorithm is simulated by considering the insolation profiles from typical clear and cloudy weather conditions and the errors of current and voltage sensors. Simulation analysis suggests the optimal control period and perturbation voltage of MPPT to maximize its target efficiency under real weather conditions with sensor tolerance.

High current behaviors of the extended drain n-type metal-oxide-semiconductor field effects transistor (EDNMOSFET) for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection of high voltage operating LDI (LCD Driver IC) chip are analyzed. Both the transmission line pulse (TLP) data and the thermal incorporated 2-dimensional simulation analysis demonstrate a characteristic double snapback phenomenon after triggering of biploar junction transistor (BJT) operation. Also, background doping concentration (BDC) is proven to be a critical factor to affect the high current behavior of the EDNMOS devices. The EDNMOS device with low BDC suffers from strong snapback in the high current region, which results in poor ESD protection performance and high latchup risk. However, the strong snapback can be avoided in the EDNMOS device with high BDC. This implies that both the good ESD protection performance and the latchup immunity can be realized in terms of the EDNMOS by properly controlling its BDC.

This paper proposes a modified $\alpha$ conduction mode for controlling the output voltage magnitude of three-phase square-wave VSIs with an R-L load. From the viewpoint of both power capacity and switching losses, three-phase square-wave inverters are now used in most high power systems. When the square-wave VSI is driven with $\alpha$ conduction mode to control the magnitude of output voltages, interval over than half period is operated with $180^{\circ}$ conduction mode and the other interval with $120^{\circ}$ conduction mode. In $120^{\circ}$ conduction mode operation, two output terminals are connected to DC supply and the third one remains open. The potential of this open terminal will depend on the load characteristics and is unpredictable except the case of pure resistive loads. To cope this problem, we propose the modified α conduction mode.

When the vector control, which does not need a speed signal from a mechanical speed sensor, it is possible to reduce the cost of the control equipment and to improve the control performance in many industrial application. This paper describes a rotor speed identification method of induction motor based on the theory of flux model reference adaptive system. The estimator execute the rotor speed identification so that the vector control of the induction motor may be achieved. The improved auxiliary variable of the two model are introduced In perform accurate rotor speed estimation. The control system is composed of the PI controller for speed control and current controller using space voltage vector PWM technique. High speed calculation and processing for vector control is carried out by TMS320C31 digital signal processor. Validity of the proposed control method is verified through simulation and experimental result.
