This paper presents electromagnetic interference(EMI) suppression method applied on the direct current(DC) motor driver for power tail gate control. EMI noise is generated by the fast switching of power devices connected to electric loads. It has become a matter of concern because of the vast increase in the number and sophistication of electronic system in automotive environment. The proposed EMI reduction method is based on the principle of reducing the transient speed of power devices by changing the parameters of the driver circuit related to the power MOSFET. In this paper, power losses were calculated by loss equations and thermal simulation was used to evaluate the effect on printed circuit board. Based on these results, the DC motor driver was fabricated and tested. The proposed method can help to design a DC motor driver which allows it to obtain an acceptable compromise between power losses and EMI.

This paper presents a lateral driver model with neuromuscular system to evaluate the performance of electric power steering (EPS). Output of most previously developed driver models is steering angle. However, in order to evaluate EPS system, driver model which results in steering torque output is needed. The proposed lateral driver model mainly consists of 2 parts: desired steering angle calculation and conversion of steering angle into steering torque. Desired steering angle calculation part results in steering angle to track desired yaw rate for path tracking. Conversion of steering angle into torque is consideration with neuromuscular system. The proposed driver model is investigated via actual driving data. Compared to other algorithms, the proposed algorithm shows similar pattern of steering angle with human driver. The proposed driver can be utilized to efficiently evaluate EPS system in simulation level.

This paper introduces a CMOS clock driver that shows a high efficiency of electric power (lower power consumption) with the supply of lower voltage(VDD), by taking advantage of charge recycling technology. Comparing with the existing structure, this driver showed the improved maximum efficiency of electric power; 72% and 68%, with the supplied voltage of 1.8v and 1.2v, respectively. Since the output waveform shows the tri-state operating region, utilization is expected in the digital integrated circuits.

High speed on-off electro-magnetic valves have been used for pressure control or flow control in automotive or construction machine servomechanisms. These systems require quicker valve switching speed to improve control preciseness. The authors designed and manufactured an electric valve driver with quick response characteristics by using 3 power source type valve driver concept. In experiments by using a hydraulic system incorporating the new valve driver, the new driver shortened the switching lag time from 5 ms to 1.3 ms. And also the new driver showed excellent position tracking control performances.

This study proposes and validates a new column type electric power steering system (EPS-TT). It is driven by a uni-directional motor and two electro-magnetic clutches. The assist motor produces assist torque in only one direction and two clutches transmit the torque to the column of steering system in either left or right direction with respect to the steering input. A full order and a reduced order models are developed to evaluate the EPS-TT. Models are also used to investigate the vehicle responses. A PID control logic is designed to control the torque of the assist motor. A driver model is applied to the system and the resulting performances are analyzed. The results show that the performances of the full order model are similar to those of reduced order model. The results also prove that the performances achieved by the EPS-TT are improved compared to those of a conventional EPS-TT across the frequency domain.

A power tool is a tool used to manufacture and process various structures using a motor that is a power source. Using a motor that uses electricity as a power source, a reduction device, power transmission and conversion device functions are built-in to make the tool rotate, reciprocate, and vibrate. It is a work tool designed to assist the user's movement skills. In the case of Korea, the power tool industry has a short history and is lagging behind advanced countries such as Germany, the United States, and Japan in terms of technology level, market share, and recognition. In addition, electric drivers used in Korea are foreign products from the US and European countries, and the domestic market also prefers 100% foreign companies, and multinational companies are investing a lot in the domestic market. Therefore, technological development must follow in order to develop domestic technology and secure a consistently high market share. The purpose of this thesis is to design a motor driver with high output performance of motor performance, miniaturization, and high speed in accordance with the basic performance requirements of power tools, and finally research developments that can be applied to industrial and medical applications.

In this paper, A 200kW traction motor driver that covers most of the traction motor specification of commercial electric vehicles (EV) is developed. In order to achieve high efficiency and high power density, a next-generation power semiconductors (Silicon carbide, SiC) are applied instead of power semiconductor(IGBT), which is Si based. Through hardware analysis for optimal use of SiC, expected efficiency and heat dissipation characteristics are obtained. A vector control algorithm for an IPMSM (Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor), which is mostly used in EV(Electric vehicle) traction motor, is implemented using DSP (Digital signal processor). In this paper, a prototype traction motor driver based SiC for EV is designed and manufactured, and its performance is verified through experiments.

This paper deals with the dynamic characteristic analysis of Linear Oscillatory Actuator (LOA) considering Sine Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) method with H-bridge driver. The input current shape obtained by the driver has great influence on the driving performance of LOA. Therefore, according to the various current shapes, the analysis is achieved by using the combined equation between kinetic and electric circuit equation. Moreover, the parameters in the electric circuit equation are accurately estimated by using FEM.
