We propose a Ku-band three-stack CMOS power amplifier to enhance the output power and efficiency. To minimize the dc power consumption, the driver stage is designed using common-source structure. To obtain high output power and utilize a voltage combining method, the power stage is designed using stack structure. To verify the proposed power amplifier structure, we design a Ku-band power amplifier using 65-nm RFCMOS process which provide nine metal layers. The P1dB, power-added efficiency, and gain are higher than 20 dBm, 23 dB, and 25%, respectively, while the operating frequency is 14 GHz-16 GHz.

In order to obtain the maximum characteristics of motors such as torque and efficiency, all motors basically use universal inverters designed for each motor's characteristics. However, if you look at the recent research results, you can see cases of SRM(Switched Reluctance Motor) driving studies using 6-switch inverters, which are BLDC(Brushless DC Motor) universal inverters, and research cases of driving 3-phase BLDC motors using 4-switch inverters. Therefore, it is possible to search for research methods by approaching various methods of driving and control that can drive each motor apart from the existing universal inverter. In line with this research trend, in this paper, a C-dump type converter, which is an SRM drive converter, was applied as a drive driver for a BLDC motor, and its characteristics and possibilities were studied.

The integration method of carier concentrations to redcue the discretization error of th box integratio method used in the discretization of the three-dimensional poisson's equation is presented. The carrier concentration is approximated in the closed form as an exponential function of the linearly varying potential in the element. The presented method is implemented in the three-dimensional poisson's equation solver running under the windows 95. The accuracy and the convergence chaacteristics of the three-dimensional poisson's equation solver are compared with those of DAVINCI for the PN junction diode and the n-MOSFET under the thermal equilibrium and the DC reverse bias. The potential distributions of the simulatied devices from the three-dimensional poisson's equation solver, compared with those of DAVINCI, has a relative error within 2.8%. The average number of iterations needed to obtain the solution of the PN junction diode and the n-MOSFET using the presented method are 11.47 and 11.16 while the those of DAVINCI are 21.73 and 23.0 respectively.

This paper is to study on the pilot work of bi-directional S.C.R. power converter adopted by the method of diode-bridge type circuit. This apparatus acts as a converter when it is used in convering 3-phase a.c source to d.c output, and it can be used as an inverter which recovering surplus d.c power to a.c source when d.c load become active to cause the induced voltage higher than the presetted point of d.c output voltage. At the same time, its d.c voltage varies continuously in the presetted range of positive and/or negative polarity. As a result of test, the AC/DC bi-directional power converter represents maximum converting efficiency of 91% and power factor of 0.98. Furthermore, this converter also can be applied as a cycleconverter by varying the period of gate triggering signal.

A broadband DC to 40 GHz 5-bit MMIC digital attenuator has been developed. The ultra broadband attenuator has been achieved by newly inserted the transmission lines in conventional Switched-T attenuator and the optimization of the transmission line parameters. Momentum was employed in design for an accurate performance prediction at high frequencies and Monte Carlo analysis was applied to verify performance stability against the MMIC process variation. The attenuator has been fabricated with 0.15 $\mu$m GaAs pHEMT process. This attenuator has 1 dB resolution and 23 dB dynamic range. High attenuation accuracy has been achieved over all attenuation range and full 40 GHz bandwidth with the reference state insertion loss of less than 6 dB at 20 GHz. The input and output return losses of the attenuator are better than 14 dB over all attenuation states and frequencies.

A target of this paper is to study on the usefulness of the adaptive piezoelectric energy harvesting device as a wireless electrical power supply when it is driven by mechanical vibrations of low frequency. For this purpose, an adaptive control technique and a step-down converter are used. A THUNDER series a piezoelectric material (TH7-R), which has been developed by a NASA engineer is selected for this study. In order to provide a mechanical energy to the piezoelectric material, a mechanical motion vibrator is designed. The adaptive controller is implemented using a dSPACE DS1104 controller board. The do-dc converter with an adaptive control technique harvests energy at over five times the rate of direct charging without a converter.

A voltage controlled CMOS operational transconductance amplifier (OTA), whose transconductance is directly proportional to the DC bias voltage, has been designed for many electronic circuit applications. It consists of a differential pair and three ourrent mirrors. The SPICE simulation shows that the conversion sensitivity of the OTA is 41.817 \ulcornerho/V and the linearity error is less than 0.402% over a bias voltage range from -2. OV to 1. OV. Electrically tunalble filters based on voltage controlled impedances, which are realized with OTA's, also have been designed. The SPICE simulation shows that a second-order bandpass filter, whose center frequency is 23KHz at -1. OV, has the conversion sensitivity 6.6KHz/V and the linearity error less than 0.822% over a voltage range from -2.OV tp 1.OV, Tne OTA has been laid out with the 3\ulcorner n-well CMOS design rule adopted in ISRC (inter-university semiconductor research center). The chip size was about $0.756x0.945mm^2$.

To deal with electronic circuits analysis, the matrix-topological formulation is described. In addition to the classical mesh, node and outset method, a mixed analysis is described, and it is presented that any electronic circuits problem, including dc, ac, transient anatysis, can be analysed by the electronic circuit analysis program. In this paper a model of two stage transistor audio amplifier is made and frequency characteristics for the cicuits are analysed by ECAP. The measured results give good agreement with the ECAP analysis.

The know the possibility in development of the low-fat beef patty models using crucian carp9 extraction residues (CCER, freeze dried powder : 5%, 10%, 15%), those protein nutritional quality, texture, color and sensory properties were investigated. About 13∼23% (on dry basis) of lipid in control was reduced in cooked beef patties with the higher addition ratios of CCER. In vitro protein digestibility was not changed in raw patties before cooking but 2∼4% higher digestibility was revealed in cooked patties. Computed protein efficiency ratio (C-PER) and discriminant computed protein efficiency ratio (DC-PER) of beef patties containing CCER were almost same as control. Lightness and red color value of both (raw and cooked) beef patties were decreased with the higher CCER addition ratios but brown color value of cooked samples were similar to control. Stronger hardness was noted in all beef patties containing CCER significantly (p<0.05). Consumer's acceptability were generally decreased by addition of CCER, but 10% level could be recommendable in beef patty processing.
