This paper presents a novel prototype of the utility-interfaced sinusoidal pulse width modulated (SPWM) inverter using the high-frequency flyback transformer fur the small-scale solar photo-voltaic power conditioner (1kW - 4kW). The proposed SPWM power conditioner circuit with a high-frequency link has a function of electrical isolation, which is vital fur solar photovoltaic power conditioner systems with the viewpoint of safety and convenience. The discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) operation of the flyback transformer is also maintained to simplify the topology of the inverter circuit and control scheme. First, the operating principle of the proposed circuit is described far the understanding of the circuit parameters establishment. Then, the digitally constructed SPWM control scheme is presented. The proposed circuit is verified by the computer simulation and the prototype experiment.

A novel zero-voltage-transition (ZVT) PWM converter for switched reluctance motor (SRM) drives is proposed. A simple auxiliary circuit which consists of one active switch, one resonant inductor, and three diodes provides ZVS condition to all main switches and diodes allowing high frequency operation of the converter with high efficiency. The auxiliary circuit is placed in parallel with the main power flow path and thus it handles only a small fraction of the main power. So, the power rating of the auxiliary circuit can be very small (about 30% of main power). So, the auxiliary circuit can be realized with small power rating and low cost. Operation, features and characteristics of the proposed converter are illustrated and verified on a 1.5 kW, 50 kHz IGBT based (a MOSFET for the auxiliary with) experimental circuit.

A high performance and low cost single switch current fed energy recovery circuit (ERC) for an alternating current (AC) plasma display panel (PDP) is proposed. Since it is composed of only one power switch compared with the conventional circuit consisting of four power switches and two large energy recovery capacitors, the ERC features a simpler structure and lower cost. Furthermore, since all power switches can be switched under soft switching operating conditions, the proposed circuit has desirable merits such as increased reliability and low switching loss. Specifically, there are no serious voltage notches across the PDP with the aid of gas discharge current compensation, which can greatly reduce the current stress of all inverter switches, and provide those switches with the turn on timing margin. To confirm the validity of proposed circuit, its operation and performance were verified on a prototype for 7-inch test PDP.

These days, the widespread use of sensitive loads and distributed generators makes the solid-state circuit breaker (SSCB) an essential component in power circuits to achieve a high power quality for AC Grids. In traditional AC SSCB using SCRs, some auxiliary mechanical devices are required to make the reclosing operation possible before fault recovery. However, the proposed AC SSCB can break quickly and then be reclosed without auxiliary mechanical devices even during the short-circuit fault. Moreover, its fault current breaking time is short and its SSCB reclosing operation is fast. This results in a reduction of the economic losses due to fault currents and power outages. Through simulations and experiments on short-circuit faults, the performance characteristics of the proposed AC SSCB are verified. A design guideline is also suggested to apply the proposed AC SSCB to various AC grids.

In this paper wireless power transmission system based on magnetic resonance coupling circuit was carried out. With the research objectives based on the mutual coupling model, mathematical expressions of optimal coupling coefficients are examined. Equivalent circuit parameters are calculated by Maxwell software, and the equivalent circuit was solved by Matlab software. The power transfer efficiency of the system was derived by using the electrical parameters of the equivalent circuit. System efficiency was analyzed depending on the different air gap values for various characteristic impedances. Hence, magnetic resonance coupling involves creating a resonance and transferring the power without radiating electromagnetic waves. As the air gap between the coils increased the coupling between the coils were weakened. The impedance of circuit varied as the air gap changed, affecting the power transfer efficiency.

본 논문에서는 MPPT 제어 기능을 갖는 열에너지 하베스팅 회로를 설계하였다. MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking) 제어는 열전소자의 개방회로전압과 MPP 전압간의 관계를 이용하였으며 열전소자의 개방회로전압을 주기적으로 샘플링 함으로써 이를 이용해 MPPT 기준전압을 생성하여 이를 기준으로 부하로의 에너지 공급을 제어한다. 모의실험 결과 94%의 최대 전력 효율을 보였다. 제안된 열에너지 하베스팅 회로는 $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정으로 설계하였으며 설계된 칩 면적은 PAD를 제외하고 $1168.7{\mu}m{\times}541.3{\mu}m$이다.

The expandable 4 bit adder/subtracter IC was designed using the adiabatic and dynamic CMOS logic (ADCL) circuit as the ultra-low power consumption basic logic circuit and the IC was fabricated using a standard 1.2 ${\mu}$ CMOS process. As the result the steady operation of 4 bit addition and subtraction has been confirmed even if the frequency of the sinusoidal supply voltage is higher than 10MHz. Additionally, by the simulation, at the frequency of 10MHz, energy consumption per operation is obtained as 93.67pJ (ar addition and as 118.67pJ for subtraction, respectively. Each energy is about 1110 in comparison with the case in which the conventional CMOS logic circuit is used. A simple and low power oscillation circuit is also proposed as the power supply circuit f3r the ADCL circuit. The oscillator operates with a less one volt of DC supply voltage and around one milli-watts power dissipation.

최근 전력의 수요공급 불균형으로 전력사용 피크시간대의 전력사용 강제 제한이 불가피하다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는, 피크전력이 발생하지 않는 시간대의 전기를 저장하고 전력부족이 예상되는 피크전력 시간대에는 저장전력을 공급하는 병렬운전 기기의 회로를 설계하는데 있다. 이 회로설계를 통하여, PRS의 핵심기능인 상용전원과 인버터 발생전원의 병렬연결 운용으로, 상용전원의 피크치 전력을 조절할 수 있었다. 또한 효율을 높이기 위하여 Transless Power Circuit DC-AC 인버터를 개발하였다. 더 나아가, 가변임피던스 제어를 적용하여 무정전 전원장치의 저장전력을 상용전원과 연계함으로써, 기존의 무정전 전원장치에서 구현을 못하고 있는 저장전력 사용시간을 획기적으로 늘릴 수 있는 기술구현 가능성을 입증하였다.

Circuit breakers have traditionally employed mechanical methods to interrupt excessive currents. According to power semiconductor technology advances in power electronic device, some mechanical breakers are replaced with solid state equivalents. Advantages of the contactors using semiconductor devices include faster fault interrupting, fault current limiting, no arc to contain or extinguish and intelligent power control, and high reliability. This paper describes the design of a static $100{\pm}10%V$ and 0 to 50A DC self-protected contactor with 85A "magnetic tripping" and 100A interruption current at $2.2A/{\mu}s$ short circuit of load condition using a new power device the HARRIS MCT (600V-75A). The self-protection circuit of this system is designed by the classical ZnO varistor for energy absorption and turn-off snubber circuit ("C" or "RCD") of the MCT.
