Flux-gate magnetometer has been still used for low field magnetic field measurement with portability, low power consumption, and high reliability. In many applications, flux-gate magnetometer measures not absolute values but changes of the earth magnetic field. For the eia magnetic field change measurements, we have constructed a high sensitive 3-axis flux-gate magnetometer of which measuring ranges is ${\pm}$1000 nT and noise level is 5pT/√㎐ at 1 ㎐. Using this magnetometer, we can compensate the earth magnetic field of ${\pm}$50,000 nT with successive approximation methods using microcomputer. After earth magnetic field compensation, we could measure earth magnetic field changes with ${\pm}$100 nT measuring ranges.

In this work, we have constructed 3-axis flux-gate magnetometer for the attitude control of satellite. The constructed magnetometer shows uncertainty of ${\pm}1%$, noise level of $0.2nT/\sqrt{Hz}$ at 1 Hz under 1W power consumption. Environment test for satellite component, acceleration test and thermal cycle test were carried out. For the acceleration test, magnetometer was vibrated frequency ranging from 10 Hz to 1 kHz at 15 g (g : gravitational acceleration at earth), and for thermal cycle test, 4 times of thermal cycle were carried out temperature ranging from $-55^{\circ}C\;to\;+80^{\circ}C$ under vacuum of $1x10^{-6}Torr$.

We have simulated and Laid out a Single Flux Quantum(SFQ) AND gate for Arithmetic Logic Unit by using XIC, WRspice and Lmeter. This circuit is a combination of two D Flip-Flop. D Flip- Flop and dc SQUID are the similar shape from the fact that it has the a loop inductor and two Josephson junction. We also obtained operating margins and accomplished layout of the AND gate. We got the margin of $\pm$42% over.

Flux-gate magnetometer was developed in 1930's, and it has been widely used for the low magnetic field measurements. In this work, we have employed amorphous ribbon 2714A produced by Allied Chem. Co. as sensor core material. To develop low noise, low power consumption, and high reliability flux-gate magnetometer, we have measured ac magnetic properties depending on the annealing conditions. As quenched state amorphous core shows high noise level and ac magnetic properties were changed under the condition of accelerated aging test, but amorphous ribbon, which was annealed under 350 $\^{C}$ during 1 hour, shows low noise level of 0.1 nT in the frequency range of dc∼10 Hz which was 10 times better than the as quenched amorphous ribbon. Under accelerated aging test, ac magnetic properties such as squareness and coercivity of the annealed samples show higher reliability and approached to a certain limiting value as exponential function. We can see that high reliability and low noise flux-gate magnetometer could be developed, if we consider this ac magnetic properties change in the sensor design.

We have simulated and laid out a Single Flux Quantum(SFQ) AND gate for Arithmetic Logic Unit by using XIC, WRspice and Lmeter. SFQ AND gate circuit is a combination of two D Flip-Flop. D Flip-Flop and dc SQUID are the similar shape form the fact that it has the loop inductor and two Josephson junction We obtained perating margins and accomplished layout of the AND gate. We got the margin of $\pm$38%. over. After layout, we drew mask for fabrication of SFQ AND sate. This mask was included AND gate, dcsfq, sfqdc, rs flip-flop and jtl.

Design and implementation methodologies on the performance evaluation system of two-channel ring-core Flux-Gate Compass (FG-Compass) are described, with evaluation procedures and methods based on the polynomial regression models. Performance evaluation system is consists of a step motor driving unit, a bearing transmitting unit and, evaluation programs using polynomial regression formulae. Through performance evaluation tests, total residual deviation tests, total residual deviation of $\pm$4$^{\circ}$ and eigen residual deviation of $\pm$2$^{\circ}$ are obtained from the FG-Compass. The result is more accurate values than the typical FG-Compass with eigen residual deviation of $\pm$4$^{\circ}$ and is provide a possibility to develop a high performance FG-Compass. In addition, the design methodology of a smart FG-Compass with the self estimation and correction of residual deviations is also discussed.
