In this paper, we describes the design of a CPU compatible with ARM9 processor. The CPU is fully synthesizable and described in Verilog-XL. Starting from the synthesizable ARM7 compatible CPU we developed earlier, we modified its pipeline to five stages. For this we first partition the behaviors of each instruction into five stage pipeline operations. Then we designed the controller and the datapath considering the forwarding or interlock schemes. Finally the compatibility of the designed CPU is verified by comparing the results of every instruction executed in test programs with those of the reference simulator developed for the ARM7 compatible CPU.

A robot manipulator and an obstacle are described mathematically in joint space, with the mathematical representation for the collision between the robot manipulator and the obstacle. Using these descriptions, the robot motion planning problem is formulated which can be used to avoide a time varying obstacle. To solve the problem, the constraints on motion planning are discretized in joint space. An analytical method is proposed for planning the motion in joint space from a given starting point to the goal point. It is found that solving the inverse kinematics problem is not necessary to get the control input to the joint motion controller for collision avoidance.

Brushless DC Motor(BLDCM) has high efficiency. But this type of motor needs a rotor sensor which complicates the motor configuration. Rotor position sensor degrades system reliability in the severe environmental condition. In this paper, we study a controller which permits the determination of the rotor position by the back EMF to eliminate the rotor position sensor Also, since the back EMF is zero at standstill, a starting technique which permits the starting of an asynchronous motor without a sensor is described. The controller is implemented using microcontroller for minimal external component.

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors(PMSMs) have a wider range of applications due to their high output density and high efficiency. PMSMs are used not only in high-power density, high-performance motor-driven systems such as vehicle and robots, but also in systems where cost-cutting is very important, such as washing machines, air conditioners and refrigerators. To reduce costs, position sensorless control is required, which is generally difficult to be used under conditions of starting the motor. Thus, the I-F speed control that rotates the current vector at any speed in the starting procedure should be used at first, and then the sensorless speed control could be applied after PMSM rotates above a certain speed. Speed control performance in I-F speed control and sensorless speed control is very important. And more speed control performance should be maintained even in the transient in which the two control techniques are changed. In this paper, the speed controller transition method from I-F speed control to sensorless speed control of permanent magnet synchronous motor is proposed. Experiments were carried out on the washing machine drive system to verify the performance of the proposed technique.

3Phase PWM rectifier has become increasingly popular due to its capability of nearly sinusoidal waveform of the input current, and nearly unity power factor operation as a AC/DC rectifier of high capacity telecommunication power supply system. Generally, PI controller is used as a voltage controller of PWM rectifier and voltage controller must be designed to have low overshoot in transient state to get a reliability and stable operation. However, in the application of telecommunication in which load condition is varied very fast, the voltage controller must have a large bandwidth to reduce output voltage variation. The PI controller with large bandwidth arouse the excessive overshoot of the output voltage, and this large output voltage variation degrades the reliability of communication power of the three-phase PWM Rectifier. In this paper, new IP voltage controller for 3 phase PWM rectifier is proposed which has relatively low transient output voltage variation. The improved output characteristics of the transient state voltage responses of the starting and at load changes of the proposed voltage controller are proved by simulations and experiments.

In many control fields high position performance is essentially required in reducing the over-shoot phenomena which is produced by improving the quick response in starting and in minimizing the variation of the response characteristic on disturbance and load variation In this paper, the design method for a position control is suggested for constructing the PI-PD controllers by using an internal PD feedback loop in PI and PD control system. Applying this method to the position control system used a DC servo motor as a driver, the transfer PI and PD controllers are designed simultaneously and the coefficients of these controllers are determined by using the transfer function of a plant and a proportional coefficient from mathematical technique. From the result of computer simulation in PI-PD control system by applying this control technique, we can verify the usefulness of this method in rejecting of over-shoot of starting, compensating of response variation on the load variation, and shorting the settling time.

Low cost motor drives are being sought for high volume energy efficient home appliances. Key to the realization of such low cost motor drives is to reduce the power electronic converter in terms of its components, particularly the active devices, finding the motor with least complexity for manufacturing and a controller that could extract the desired performance from the machine and converter combination. These and other factors such as self-starting, speed control over a wide range and most of all the crowning aspect of a four quadrant operation with bare minimum number of controllable switch (or switches) remain as formidable challenges for low cost motor drive realization. In this paper, a four quadrant switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive with only one controllable switch is realized by using a two-phase machine. The theory and operation of the proposed four-quadrant SRM drive with the proposed control algorithm for its realization are described. The motor drive is modeled, simulated and analyzed to verify its feasibility for self-starting, speed control and for four quadrant operation and the simulation results are presented. Experimental results confirm the validity of the proposed control algorithm for four quadrant control of the SRM drive. The focus of the paper is mainly directed toward the control algorithm for realizing the four-quadrant operation of the two-phase SRM drive with a single controllable switch converter.

A power supply for magnetic-stimulation devices was designed via a control algorithm that involved a start current application based on a resonant converter. In this study, a new power supply for magnetic-stimulation devices was designed by controlling the pulse repetition frequency and pulse width. The power density could be controlled using the start-current-compensation and ZCS (zero-current switching) resonant converter. The results revealed a high-repetition-frequency, high-power magnetic-stimulation device. It was found that the stimulation coil current pulse width and that pulse repetition frequency could be controlled within the range of 200-450 ${\mu}S$ and 200-900 pps, respectively. The magnetic-stimulation device in this study consisted of a stimulation coil device and a power supply system. The maximum power of the stimulation coil from one discharge was 130 W, which was increased to 260 W using an additional reciprocating discharge. The output voltage was kept stable in a sinusoidal waveform regardless of the load fluctuations by forming voltage and current control using a deadbeat controller without increasing the current rating at the starting time. This paper describes this magnetic-stimulation device to which the start current was applied.

The PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) has been widely used to implement real-time controllers in nuclear RPSs (Reactor Protection Systems). Increasing complexity and maintenance cost, however, are now demanding more powerful and cost-effective implementation such as FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array). Abandoning all experience and knowledge accumulated over the decades and starting an all-new development approach is too risky for such safety-critical systems. This paper proposes an RPS software development process with a platform change from PLC to FPGA, while retaining all outputs from the established development. This paper transforms FBD designs of the PLC-based software development into a behaviorally-equivalent Verilog program, which is a starting point of a typical FPGA-based hardware development. We expect that the proposed software development process can bridge the gap between two software developing approaches with different platforms, such as PLC and FPGA. This paper also demonstrates its effectiveness using an example of a prototype version of a real-world RPS in Korea.
