To reduce third-order intermodulation distortion(IMD3) generated in the down-conversion process of the mixer, predistortion technique was proposed and its performance was verified fDr Cellular band circuit. This method is based on the fact that down converted IMD3 of a down conversion mixer could be canceled by that of predistortor with a fine tuned vector modulator. Two tone test has been performed at 836 Mhz with 442 KHz separation. The results showed that IM3 level was improved about 16dB and PldB of the mixer was increased 3dB. from the above results, the suggested technique is useful to design the down converters for communication system .

Recently the power supply equipments have tendency to take multiple feedback loop paths. In this paper, the state space averaging technique is applied for the analysis of flyback type current mode control circuit. We made real converter for the gurantee of stable output characteristic and proper design of feedback circuit. The validity of proposed method is verified from test results. The improvement of stability is confirmed by sinusoidal signal injection method with isolated transformer. It is known that phase margin is sufficient and gain crossover frequency $f_c$, is nearly 1/5 of switching frequency $f_s$, from the experimental result with frequency response analyzer.

A systematic approach of measurement, modeling and analysis of grounding system impedance in the field of lightning protection systems is presented. The measurement and analysis of ground impedance are based on a computer aided technique. The magnitude and phase of ground impedance were measured and analyzed by the modified fall-of-potential method and the proposed computer program algerian using the waveforms of the test current and potential rise. The theoretical analysis of ground impedance were performed with the equivalent circuit models, and the theoretical results were compared with the measured data.

Usually, according as accumulation degree of semi-conductor element increases, dynamic mistake test time increases sharply, and use of pattern generator is essential at manufacturing process to solve these problem. In this paper, we designed the PLD(Programmable Logic Device) circuit of pattern generator to examine dynamic mistake of semi-conductor element. Such all item got result that is worth verified action of return trip and function through simulation, and satisfy.

This study proposes a new method to estimate voltage unbalance more exactly using Thevenin's equivalent circuit. The conventional simple formula were easily applied to evaluate voltage unbalance. Because the formula was derived on the assumption that traction load would be directly connected to the secondary windings of the main transformer, they could not consider the detailed characteristics of traction power supply system, for example, self and mutual impedances of rail, catenary and return feeder. So, the ac쳐racy of the results could not be guaranteed. The proposed algorithm is applied to a standard autotransformer-fed test system to analyze unbalance phenomena. Through simulations, we could evaluate voltage and current unbalance factors and compare the voltage unbalance of the three transformer connection schemes : single phase, V- and Scott-connections which are required for suitable train operation schedules. Additionally, we could determine the combinations of trains which can be operated under the unbalance factor limits.

A new SRAM pixel circuit with RESET Transistor of a LCOS display module was designed for a pico-projector application. A dual-block PWM method was also proposed to realize the field sequential color system having only one LCOS panel. 0.29 inch LCOS panel in SVGA resolution was fabricated and the proposed dual-block PWM method was tested with it. Discontinuity of brightness curve was caused due to multi-pulses and it was improved by the adoption of proper mapping table. With the proposed SRAM with RESET pixel circuit and dual-block PWM method, the test images were successfully demonstrated.

In this study, we developed a circuit device detecting korotkoff sounds of forearm electronic blood pressure monitor by digital signal. In order to test a circuit detecting signal from korotkoff sounds, systolic and diastolic pressure were compared our developed circuit device with the existing forearm electronic blood pressure monitor (Model: SE-7000, Korea). Devices for an experiment composed of a forearm cuff, a stethoscope, an amplifier, a PC with A/D board, etc. Results of korotkoff sounds was similar to a pattern of oscilometric signals from the existing forearm electronic blood pressure monitor. We thought it is possible to measure blood pressures, if blood pressures were detected precisely using signals of korotkoff sounds.

A 120kV/70A high voltage switch has been installed at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute(KAERI) in Taejon to supply power with Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research(KSTAR) Neutral Beam Injection(NBI) system. NBI system requires fast cutoff of the flower supply voltage for protection of the grid when arc detected and fast turn-on the voltage for sustaining the beam current. Therefore the high voltage switch and arc current detection circuit are important part of the NBI power supply. There are much need for high voltage solid state switches in NBI system and a broad area of applications. This switch consisted of 100 series connected MOSFETs and adopted the proposed simple and reliable gate drive circuit without bias supply. Various results taken during the commissioning phase with a 100kW resistive load and NBI source arc shown. This paper presents the detailed design of 120kV/70A high voltage MOSFETs switch and simple gate drive circuit. Problems with the high voltage switch and gate driver during thefabrication and test and solutions are also presented.
