Especially, the proposed circuit has more excellent pulse-width matching of set and reset signals than the conventional circuit. Also the proposed pulse generation circuit prevent from fault operations using a logic gate. Dead time and pulse-width of the proposed circuit are typical 250 ns, and its variation is maximum 170 ns(68 %) about a variation of a process and a supply voltage. The proposed circuit is designed using $1\;{\mu}m$ 650 V BCD process parameter, and a simulation is carried out using Spectre.

Especially, the proposed circuit has more excellent pulse-width matching of set and reset signals than the conventional circuit. Also, the proposed pulse generator is prevented from fault operations using a logic gate. Dead time and pulse-width of the proposed circuit are typical 250 ns, respectively. The variation ratio is 68%(170 ns) of maximum over variation of processes and supply voltages. The proposed circuit is designed using $1\;{\mu}m$ 650 V BCD (Bipolar, CMOS, DMOS) process parameter, and the simulations are carried out using Spectre simulator of Cadence corporation.

This paper presents a novel modeling technique for traces that cross a defected ground structure. A simple and accurate equivalent circuit model provides clear insight into the coupling mechanism between a microstrip line and a slot or split. The circuit models consist of a transformer as the coupling mechanism and LC resonators as the ground with a slot or split structure. Resistors, capacitors, and inductors are added to the model to increase accuracy and equivalence at high frequency. Simulated and measured S-parameters are presented for defected ground structures. The accuracy and validity of the proposed equivalent circuit model is verified by evaluation of the S-parameter characteristics of the defected ground structures and comparison with measured results.

This paper describes a Push-Pull type high fre-quency resonant inverter conposed of consolidation of boost converter circuit and resonant circuit. By using a boost converter circuit the proposed inverter can obtain a twice input voltage of reson ant circuit and reduce a secondary turn ratios. By using both boost-converter and switching device can be reduce by half. Also the ana-lysis of the proposed circuit was described by using normalized parameter and operating characteristics have been evaluated as to switching frequency and parameters. In the future this pro-posed inverter shows that it can be practically used as a power source system for the lighting equipment of discharge lamp induction heating applications.

In this paper, we propose a method that applies Vector Fitting (VF) technique to the equivalent circuit model for RF passive components. These days wireless communication system is getting smaller and smaller. So EMI/EMC is an issue in RF. We can solve PI/SI (Power Integrity/Signal Integrity) that one of EMI/EMC problem apply IFFT for 3D EM simulation multiple with input signal. That is time consuming task. Therefore equivalent circuit model using RF passive component is important. VF schemes are implemented to obtain the rational functions. S parameters of the equivalent circuit model is compared to those of EM simulation in case of the microstrip line structure.

3D Equivalent magnetic Circuit Network Method (EMCNM) is comparatively the easy way that analyzes 3D models of Electric Machine by using permeance as a distributive magnetic circuit parameter under the existing magnetic equivalent circuit method and Numerical Method. The existing 3D EMCNM could not correctly describe the shape of an analysis target when using rectangular shape element or fan shape element, so it made errors when calculating permeance. Therefore, this paper proposes the trapezoidal element contained rectangular element, fan-shape element, and quadrilateral element to express a shape. The proposed method in this research was confirmed as a useful and an accurate method through comparing with the analysis result of SRM model that is sufficiently guaranteed by 2D-Analysis.

In this paper, a current comparative frequency automatic tuning circuit for the CMOS bandpass filter are designed with the new architecture. And also, when the designed circuit is compared the typical tuning circuit, it has very simple architecture that is composed of the current comparator and charge pump and operated in 2V power supply. The proposed tuning circuit automatically compensate the difference between the operating current of the integrator and the reference current which is specified. Using CMOS 0.25um parameter, a CMOS bandpass active filter with center frequency(f0= 100MHz) is designed, and according to the transister size the variation of the center frequency is simulated. As the HSPIC simulation results, the tuning operating of the proposed current comparative frequency automatic tuning circuit is verified.

This study proposed design parameters of opening spring of circuit breaker that cut off the over-current in order to protect the electric device about opening speed using the energy method. We simulated the opening kinetic energy, the potential energy of opening spring and the design parameters of opening spring with respect to opening speed of VCB (Vacuum Circuit Breaker)'s moving contactor which has 24kV 25kA break capacity. From the result of simulation the initial tensional force and the final tensional force of the opening spring chose 107kgf and 282kgf respectively. Through the dynamic analysis using ADAMS, We verified that the opening speed of moving contactor satisfied break capacity of VCB and analyzed opening dynamic characteristics of VCB such as the opening displacement, the opening velocity and the opening acceleration of moving contactor in time domain.

In this paper, the equivalent magnetic circuit and FEM are used to calculate force density of linear BLDC motor. The equivalent magnetic circuit is hard to exact compose for analysis model and it is just applied to linear system. To flexible design and reducing the calculated and analyzed time, magnetic circuit has to be used for designing the linear BLDC motor and deducing equation of force density. Force density as parameter of permanent magnet and coil-side width that are important to determined force density can be estimated using equation of force density. FEM is used to prove reliability of equation of force density and to consider the nonlinear system. Equivalent magnetic circuit and result of FEM are similar, but it is little different by friction loss at the experiment.

Possibility of passive piezoelectric damping based on a new shunting parameter estimation method is studied using finite element analysis. The adopted tuning method is based electrical impedance that is found at piezoelectric device and the optimal criterion for maximizing dissipated energy at the shunt circuit. Full three dimensional finite element model is used for piezoelectric devices with cantilever plate structure and shunt electronic circuit is taken into account in the model. Electrical impedance is calculated at the piezoelectric device, which represents the structural behavior in terms of electrical field, and equivalent electrical circuit parameters for the first mode are extracted using PRAP (Piezoelectric Resonance Analysis Program). After the shunt circuit is connected to the equivalent circuit for the first mode, the shunt parameters are optimally decided based on the maximizing dissipated energy criterion. Since this tuning method is based on electrical impedance calculated at piezoelectric device, multi-mode passive piezoelectric damping can be implemented for arbitrary shaped structures.
