Facility power-line electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters are used to provide radio frequency(RF) isolation between dedicated power distribution services and noise sensitive local power distribution systems. This type of EMI filters generally needs a high current capacity and, in some special applications, a high insertion loss of a minimum 100dB from 14kHz through 10GHz per MIL-STD 220 is required. This paper deals with an analysis and design of a wideband facility power-line EMI filter with the above requirements. The characteristics of the inductor and capacitor at high frequencies are investigated. The characteristics and design method of the facility EMI filter with a high order LC network are also presented. The prototype filter is finally implemented and its performance is verified from the experimental results.

This paper proposes transformerless power conversion system consisting of a single-phase diode rectifier and a shunt hybrid filter for the electric-railway system. The hybrid filter consists of a single tuned LC filter per a phase and a low-rated NPC type multi-level inverter. Compared with conventional active filters. transformers are not used. Also, LC filter works as not only a harmonic filter tuned at the 3rd harmonic frequency but also a switching-ripple filter. The rating of the active filter can be decreased by using a NPC type multi-level inverter. The simulation results confirm the validity of the system.

The cascaded H-Bridge Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) is used for protecting high voltage and large capacity loads from voltage sags. The LC filter in the DVR is needed to eliminate switching ripples, which also provides an accurate tracking feature in a certain frequency range. Therefore, the parameter optimization of the LC filter is especially important. In this paper, the value range functions for the inductance and capacitance in LC filters are discussed. Then, parameter variations under different conditions of voltage sags and power factors are analyzed. In addition, an optimized design method is also proposed with the consideration of multiple impact factors. A detailed optimization procedure is presented, and its validity is demonstrated by simulation and experimental results. Both results show that the proposed method can improve the LC filter design for a cascaded H-Bridge DVR and enhance the performance of the whole system.

A multilayer two-stage LC bandpass filter using low-temperature cofired-ceramic(LTCC) is proposed in this paper. The proposed bandpass filter is composed of two ceramic substrates with different dielectric constant instead of single ceramic material from top to bottom layer. Inductive elements are designed in a low permitivity ceramic layer to reduce parasitic effects and loss, while capacitive elements are designed in a high permitivity ceramic layer for size reduction. The proposed filter has 950 MHz center &equency, 118 MHz tractional bandwidth, and 3.5 dB insertion loss. And, the total size of this filter is 2.5${\times}$2.5${\times}$l.4mm$^3$. The performance of filter is analyzed by changing coupling capacitance between each resonator.

A 7.0-inch transmissive type plastic TFT-LCD was developed at the resolution of 640 $\times$ 3 $\times$ 480 lines (114ppi). All of the processed of TFT, color filter and LC were carried out below $130^{\circ}C$ on PES plastic films. The process conditions of TFT, color filter and LC were optimized for large area TFT-LCD on plastic substrate. The backplane and the color filter was strongly adhered while the panel was bending by using holding spacers.

In this paper, the new LLCL filter is proposed for grid connected three-phase PWM inverter for passive damping. LLCL filter inserts a small inductor in the branch of the capacitor of the traditional LCL filter to compose a series resonant circuit to reduce the switching-frequency component on grid current. Using LLCL filter, the switching-frequency current ripple components can be attenuated much better than the LCL filter, leading to a decrease in the total inductance. However, the resonance phenomena caused by zero impedance from the addition of LC branch in LLCL filter can be a big problem. Resonance phenomena of LLCL filter can be a source of grid system instability, so proper damping methods are required. However, it is difficult to apply a passive damping method in the conventional LLCL filter, because the damping resistor increase impedance of the LC branch. Therefore, switching frequency component of grid current can not much attenuated by low Q of LC series resonance effect. In this paper, a new LLCL filter is proposed to overcome the conventional LLCL filter with passive damping. The validity of the proposed method is proven by simulation and experimental result.

In this paper, new automatic LC calibrator is proposed for realizing a passive LC filter with almost constant frequency characteristic regardless of the PVT variations. The SAW-less GPS RX front-end is implemented using a 65nm CMOS process using the proposed LC calibrator. Also, new dual-mode low noise amplifier (LNA) structure is proposed to generate the RF signal required for the LC calibrator. The characteristics of the implemented GPS RX front-end show the voltage gain of about 42.5 dB, noise figure of below 1.35 dB, the blocker input P1dB of -24 dBm in case of the worst blocker signal at 1710 MHz frequency, while it consumes 7 mA current at 1.2 V power supply voltage.
