An analog/digital mixed mode ASIC for network synchronization of ATM switching system has been designed and fabricated. This ASIC generates a 234.7/46.94 ㎒ system clock and 77.76/19.44 ㎒ user clock using 46.94 ㎒ transmitted clocks from other systems. It also includes digital circuits for checking and selecting of the transmitted clocks. For effective ASIC design, full custom technique is used in 2 analog PLL circuits design, and standard cell based technique is used in digital circuit design. Resistors and capacitors for analog circuits are specially designed which can be fabricated in general CMOS technology, so the chip can be implemented in 0.8$\mu\textrm{m}$ digital CMOS technology with no expensive. Testing results show stable 234.7 ㎒ and 19.44 ㎒ clocks generation with each 4㎰ and 17㎰ of low ms jitter.

The signal transmission of human body is processed by the action potential from each cell unit. This kind of action potential is taken place and transmitted by the ions through cell membrane, and ultimately explained as an electrical signal concept. The fact that the information is established as an electrical status as well as various senses from the bio-organozm has been addressed through several studies. By the way, this nervous transmission relation has been described and analyzed qualitatively in the mean time. I established new algorithm to analyze these relations quantitatively and implemented them using existing bio-data in this paper. The study, however, was limited to underthreshold potential to excite the nervous system against the outer stimulation. This is very much analog to electrical transient of the switching circuit, and therefore, I analyzed it based on this analog. I made it clear that the results derived here is the basis further study topic.

This paper proposes the analysis and design of a DC-side symmetrical zero-current-switching (ZCS) Class-D current-source driven resonant rectifier to improve the low power-factor and high line current harmonic distortion of lighting applications. An analysis of the junction capacitance effect of Class-D ZCS rectifier diodes, which has a significant impact on line current harmonic distortion, is discussed in this paper. The design procedure is based on the principle of the symmetrical Class-D ZCS rectifier, which ensures more accurate results and provides a more systematic and feasible analysis methodology. Improvement in the power quality is achieved by using the output characteristics of the DC-side Class-D ZCS rectifier, which is inserted between the front-end bridge-rectifier and the bulk-filter capacitor. By using this symmetrical topology, the conduction angle of the bridge-rectifier diode current is increased and the low line harmonic distortion and power-factor near unity were naturally achieved. The peak and ripple values of the line current are also reduced, which allows for a reduced filter-inductor volume of the electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter. In addition, low-cost standard-recovery diodes can be employed as a bridge-rectifier. The validity of the theoretical analysis is confirmed by simulation and experimental results.

An MMIC multi-function chip with a low DC power consumption for an X-band active phased array radar system has been designed and fabricated using a 0.5 ${\mu}m$ GaAs p-HEMT commercial process. The multi-function chip provides several functions: 6-bit phase shifting, 6-bit attenuation, transmit/receive switching, and signal amplification. The fabricated multi-function chip with a compact size of $16mm^2(4mm{\times}4mm)$ exhibits a gain of 10 dB and a P1dB of 14 dBm from 7 GHz to 11 GHz with a DC low power consumption of only 0.6 W. The RMS(Root Mean Square) errors for the 64 states of the 6-bit phase shift and attenuation were measured to $3^{\circ}$ and 0.6 dB, respectively over the frequency.

A 10b 30MS/s pipelined ADC operating under 1V power supply is presented. It utilizes a switched-RC based input sampling circuit and a resistive loop to reset the feedback capacitor in the multiplying digital-to-analog converter (MDAC) for the low-voltage operation. Cascaded switched-RC branches are used to achieve accurate grain of the MDAC for the first stage and separate switched-RC circuits are used in the sub-ADC to suppress the switching noise coupling to the MDAC input The measured differential and integral non-linearities of the prototype ADC fabricated in a 0.13${\mu}m$, CMOS process are less than 0.54LSB and 1.75LSB, respectively. The prototype ADC achieves 54.1dB SNDR and 70.4dB SFDR with 1V supply and 30MHz sampling frequency while consuming 17mW power.

The New efficient Mux-based scan latch cell design and scan test of LOS/LOC modes are proposed for detection of delay faults in digital logic circuits. The proposed scan cell design can support LOS(Launch-off-Shift) and LOC(Launch-off-Capture) tests with high fault coverage and low scan power and it can alleviate the problem of the slow selector enable signal and hold signal by supporting the logic capable of switching at the operational clock speeds. Also, it efficiently controls the power dissipation of the scan cell design during scan testing. Functional operation and timing simulation waveform for proposed scan hold cell design shows improvement in at-speed test timing in both test modes.

A magnetic contactor is a switching device widely used for electric circuits. For the operation of magnetic contactors, magnetic coils are essential; these coils create and interrupt the electric circuit. In this paper, the finite element analysis model was developed to reflect the experimental data, and was verified through alteration of the applied voltages and the numbers of turns. Effects of electromagnetic force on the geometrical variations of the facing poles for fixed and moving cores of two magnet coils were investigated. In addition, effects of slope and air gap size between two facing poles on the electromagnetic force were explored through the distribution of the magnetic flux density in the magnetic coils of a push-type solenoid. Through this analysis, the characteristics of the electromagnetic force against the facing poles were explored.

Distributed generation systems (DGSs) have been getting more and more attention in terms of renewable energy use and new generation technologies in the past decades. The self-excited induction generator (SEIG) occupies an important role in the area of energy conversion due to its low cost, robustness and simple control. Unlike synchronous generators, the SEIG has to absorb capacitive reactive power from the outer device aiming to stabilize the terminal voltage at load changes. This paper presents a novel static VAR compensator (SVC) called a magnetic energy recovery switch (MERS) to serve as a voltage controller in SEIG powered DGSs. In addition, many small scale SEIGs, instead of a single large one, are applied and devoted to promote the generation efficiency. To begin with, an expandable mathematic model based on a d-q equivalent circuit is created for parallel SEIGs. The control method of the MERS is further improved with the objective of broadening its operating range and restraining current harmonics by parameter optimization. A hybrid control strategy is developed by taking both of the stand-alone and grid-connected modes into consideration. Then simulation and experiments are carried out in the case of single and double SEIG(s) generation. Finally, the measurement results verify that the proposed DGS with SVC-MERS achieves a better stability and higher feasibility. The major advantages of the mentioned variable reactive power supplier, when compared to the STATCOM, include the adoption of a small DC capacitor, line frequency switching, simple control and less loss.

In this study, We applied the magnetic field that has CW frequency and AM frequency to heating magnetic nano powder. For this experiment, We set up the devices flat-type magnetic field generator with CW frequency and AM frequency. We supplied the current to encircling coil by adjusting the power of generating of magnetic field device for AC voltage through Slidacs and using way of LC resonance circuit and SMPS(Switching Mode Power Supply). Above the encircling coil, We covered the circular flat insulator like glass. And we located the well plate containing the magnetic nano powder liquor above the circular flat insulator and exposed the magnetic field to this well plate. Using the flat-type magnetic field generator with CW and AM frequency and the magnetic field measurement sensor(Magnetic pick up coil or Hall sensor), We measured the strength of the magnetic field of circular flat insulator's surface in each position. The temperature of the magnetic nano powder in the well plate was quantitatively measured by the magnetic field strength through the Fluoroptic thermometer.

For the fast growing Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) TV market, it is essential to make the LCD panels to show moving images without any visual difficulties such as blurring or tailing. Owing to reduction of the cell gap and the improved Liquid Crystal (LC) mixtures with low viscosity, it is possible that our S-IPS TFT-LCDs feature a response time (R/T) as fast as 1-frame time (16ms) for a white-black operation and less than a 16rns in all gray levels without Over Driving Circuit (ODC) technology. Currently, mass production of the large size IPS panels with high speed has been successfully achieved. In order to achieve faster response time, new LC mixtures have been developed, optimizing the physical properties of rotational viscosity (${\gamma}$1) and elastic constants (Kii). Also, the LC mixtures with high elastic constant allow us to increase the cell gap. In this paper, realization of fast switching time in IPS mode with optimized '${\gamma}$1/Kii' parameter in the LC mixtures forms the core of this paper.
