Multi-layer printed circuit board(PCB) is being used widely for the product with relatively complex circuits such as TV, VTR and FAX. With the rapid enlargement of electronic and IT industry, the hole machining technology on multi-layer PCB is increasingly required to improve. Thus, the micro drilling with ultrasonic vibration can be a good method for hole machining. Unlike conventional drilling, ultrasonic vibration applied drilling introduces less wear and fracture of not only tool but also internal surface of workpiece due to little cutting resistance, thus, machinability can be improved. The experiment is conducted through the comparison between the results of conventional drilling and ultrasonic micro drilling as well as among each results by the variation according to not only feed rate of drill but also amplitude and frequency of ultrasonic vibration. The multi-layer PCB consists of 6 layers and ${\Phi}$0.3 diameter drill was used. As a result, it was found that the state of internal surfaces of holes on multiple layer PCBs is improved by the application of ultrasonic vibration.

An optimization problem of AND-EXOR PLA's with input decoders can be regarded as a minimization problem of Exclusive-Or Sum-Of-Products expressions (ESOP's) for multiple-valued input two-valued output functions. In this paper, We propose a minimization algorithm for ESOP's. The algorithm is based on an iterative improvement. Five rules are used to replace a pair of products with another one. We minimized many ESOP's for arithmetic circuits. In most cases, ESOP's required fewer products than SOP's to realized same functions.

In this paper, we developed a radial pulse transducer that has strain-gauge cantilever type load cell for total pulse detection on chongu arterial. The transducer consist of load cell and driving electronic circuits. Load cell consist of cantilever and two metal film strain gauge. The Pressure signal from chongu artery is delivered to load cell using artery rider that attached to cantilever Therefore the pressure signal convert to voltage signals by the developed transducer As the results of experiment, the developed transducer has very good linearity at pressure to voltage conversion. The total pulse detection transducer can detected three kinds of chongu artery pulse with conveniently.

This paper presents a systematic approach to the modeling of power electronic circuits with systemlongrightarrowlevel simulation l languages. It is shown that a circuit model reduces to one of four basic types according to input/output conditions. The e elementary models for single series components and shunt components are derived which are integrated to develop a m model of given converter circuit. The constraints imposed on the model development-matching input/output conditions a and avoiding algebraic loop-are discussed in relation to the realization example of a buck converter circuit model. It is s shown that the constraints can always be fullfilled by introducing fictitious interface blocks, which is generalized to the c concept of model transformation.

The generation of fine relics of suspensions is a significant interest as it holds the key to the fabrication of electronic devices. These processes offer opportunities for miniaturization of multilayer circuits, for production of functionally graded materials, ordered composites and far small complex-shaped components. Some novel printing methods of depositing ceramic and metal droplets were suggested in recent years. In an electro-hydrodynamic printing, the metallic capillary nozzle can be raised to several kilovolts with respect to the infinite ground plate or pin-type electrode positioned a few millimeters from the nozzle tip. Depending on the electrical and physical properties of the liquid, for a given geometry, it Is possible to generate droplets in any one of three modes, dripping, cone-jet and multi-jet. In this experiment, an alumina suspension flowing through a nozzle was subjected to electro-hydrodynamic printing using pin-type electrodes in the cone-jet mode at different applied voltages. The pin-type electrodes of 1, 100, 1000${\mu}m$ in diameter were used to form fine ceramic patterns onto the substrates. Various feature sizes with applied voltages and electrode diameters were measured. The feature sizes increased with the electrode diameter and applied voltages. The feature size was as fine as $30 {\mu}m$.

In this paper, the spiral antenna with the center frequencies of 315MHz, 433MHz, and 447MHz for RKE system of a vehicle is designed on PCB. The antenna is microstrip line-fed, and applied PIFA concept near the feeding part to easily tune center frequency and input impedance. The PIFA-type spiral antenna with the size of $30mm{\times}20mm$ is designed on printed PCB by considering the effect of circuits and components on PCB, ECU case and vehicle body. Also chip inductor inserted dual-band spiral antenna of 315MHz and 447MHz is designed. We found that the antenna designed on PCB satisfied the antenna specifications through measurement and field test.

This paper deals with design and verification of an arithmetic logic unit(ALU) to be used for development of optical computers. The ALU is based on optical switching device, $LiNbO_3$, which is easy to interface with electronic technology and most common in the market. It consists of an arithmetic/logic circuit performing logic operations, memory devices storing operands and the results of operations, and supplementary circuits to select instruction codes, and operates in bit-serial manner. In addition, a simulator is developed for verification of the design, and a set of basic instructions are executed in sequence and step-by-step changes in the accumulator and the memory are examined through simulations, to show that various operations are performed correctly.

STSAT-1 was launched on sep. 2003 with the main payload of Far Ultra-violet Imaging Spectrograph(FIMS). The mission of FIMS is to observe universe and aurora. In this paper, we suggest a simple and reliable strategy adopted in STSAT-1 to synchronize time between On-board Computer(OBC) and FIMS. For the characteristics of STSAT-1, this strategy is devised to maintain reliability of satellite system and to reduce implementation cost by using minimized electronic circuits. We suggested two methods with different synchronization resolutions to cope with unexpected faults in space. The backup method with low resolution can be activated when the main has some problems.

We have developed a whole-head MEG system for basic brain research and clinical application. The sensor system consists of a 152 SQUID gradiometer array oriented and located in a suitable way to cover a whole head of the human. The system measures magnetic fields generated by neuronal currents in the brain to get information on the brain activities. For this purpose, the field sensitivity determined by the position, orientation and geometry of the pickup coil as well as amplification factor of the electronic circuits should be known precisely. However, the position and orientation of the pickup coil might be changed from the designed specifications during cool down of the dewar and it is necessary to characterize the field sensitivity. In this study, we made calibration systems to determine the actual position and orientation of the 152 pickup coils and compared the localization results of the N100m source in the auditory cortex.

A novel selective metallization process to fabricate the fine conductive line based on inkjet printing has been investigated. Recently, Inkjet printing has been widely used in flat panel display, electronic circuits, biochips and bioMEMS because direct inkjet printing is an alternative and cost-effective technology for patterning and fabricating objects directly from design without masks. The photosensitive etching resist used in this process is an organic polymer which becomes solidified when exposed to ultraviolet lights and has high viscosity at ambient temperature. A piezoelectric-driven inkjet printhead is used to dispense 20-30 ${\mu}m$ diameter droplets onto the copper substrate to prevent subsequent etching. Repeatability of circuitry fabrication is closely related to the formation of steady droplets, adhesion between etching resist and copper substrate. Therefore, the ability to form small and stable droplets and surface topography of the copper surface and chemical attack must be taken into consideration for fine and precise patterns. In this study, factors affecting the pattern formation such as adhesion strength, etching mechanism, UV curing have been investigated. As a result, microscale copper patterns with tens of urn high have been fabricated.
