Magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) don't get very public face on the field of non-volatile memory. Because recording capacity of MRAM is smaller than other non-volatile memory and structurally, magnetic efficiency of MRAM is very bad. We diminish a size of one cell in order to make MRAM of high recording capacity. But It don't make high recording field in general structures consisting of two current wire. Accordingly, We make a cell of small size is impossible. In this paper, we suggest new MRAM that it have two pole of high permeability on both ends of recording layer. Because magnetic efficiency of new MRAM is higher than exiting MRAM, it can make high recording field. And we can diminish the size of one cell due to recording layer of high coercivity. We used three-dimension finite element method to prove the reliability.

In this paper, GPS / GLONASS receiving a small active antenna is proposed. A microstrip patch antenna which supports dual-band (GPS and GLONASS) was optimized. The antenna size is $13{\times}13{\times}3.6mm$. The jig was changed to confirm the proposed antenna characteristic size, was adjusted to feed gap of the patch antenna, it was confirmed by change in LNA shield case or not. The antenna jig size is $65.6{\times}13{\times}0.8mm$. The maximum gain of the GPS band is 3.78dBi, the maximum gain of the GLONASS bands is 4dBi. To amplify the Satellite reception signal level, one-stage low noise amplifier(LNA) was designed. The LNA chip was using the BGA715 N7, the LNA gain is 19.9dB.

This paper presents a micro air pump based on the synthetic jet to supply reactant at the cathode side for micro fuel cells. The synthetic jet is a zero mass flux device that converts electrical energy into the momentum. The synthetic jet actuation is usually generated by a traditional PZT-driven actuator, which consists of a small cylindrical cavity, orifices and PZT diaphragms. Therefore, it is very important that the design parameters are optimized because of the simple configuration. To design the synthetic jet micro air pump, a numerical analysis has been conducted for flow characteristics with respect to various geometries. From results of numerical analysis, the micro air pump has been fabricated by the PDMS replication process. The most important design factors of the micro air pump in micro fuel cells are the small size and low power consumption. To satisfy the design targets, we used SP4423 micro chip that is high voltage output DC-AC converter to control the PZT. The SP4423 micro chips can operate from $2.2{\sim}6V$ power supply(or battery) and is capable of supplying up to 200V signals. So it is possible to make small size controller and low power consumption under 0.1W. The size of micro air pump was $16{\times}13{\times}3mm^3$ and the performance test was conducted. With a voltage of 3V at 800Hz, the air pump's flow rate was 2.4cc/min and its power consumption was only 0.15W.

This paper presents the transient-response improved LDO regulator based on parallel error amplifiers. The proposed LDO regulator consists of an error amplifier (E/A1) which has a high gain and narrow bandwidth and a second amplifier (E/A2) which has low gain and wide bandwidth. These amplifiers are in parallel structure. Also, to improve the transient-response properties and slew-rate, some circuit block is added. Using pole-splitting technique, an external capacitor is reduced in a small on-chip size which is suitable for mobile devices. The proposed LDO has been designed and simulated using a Megna/Hynix $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS parameters. Chip layout size is $500{\mu}m{\times}150{\mu}m$. Simulation results show 2.5 V output voltage and 100 mA load current in an input condition of 2.7 V ~ 3.3 V. Regulation Characteristic presents voltage variation of 26.1 mV and settling time of 510 ns from 100mA to 0 mA. Also, the proposed circuit has been shown voltage variation of 42.8 mV and settling time of 408 ns from 0 mA to 100 mA.

Currently, so many approaching methods are being developed to optimize the antenna size. In this paper, We fabricated Inverted-F type antenna attaching lumped components to solve the limitation of antenna size. Through experiments, a basic Inverted-F type antenna was fabricated and satisfied the adequate radiation pattern. After this, we researched the effect of antenna varied by matching circuit consist of chip type resistor, inductor, and capacitor. Using that elements, the antenna was matched at aim frequency. The proposed antenna's size is $7\;{\times}\;24\;mm$ that is very small size against the resonance frequence. Measuring the developed antenna, Its return loss was -18dB. Thus, this antenna can be used for Z-wave systems.

In this paper, a 64b small-area MTP memory IP is designed. A VPPL (=VPP/3) regulator and a VNN (=VNN/3) charge pump are removed since the inhibit voltages of an MTP memory cell are all 0V instead of the conventional voltages of VPP/3 and VNN/3. Also, a VPP charge pump is removed since the VPP program voltage is supplied from an external pad. Furthermore, a VNN charge pump is designed to provide its voltage of -VPP as a one-stage negative charge pump using the VPP voltage. The layout size of the designed 64b MTP memory IP with MagnaChip's $0.18{\mu}m$ BCD process is $377.585{\mu}m{\times}328.265{\mu}m$ (=0.124mm2). Its DC-DC converter related layout size is 76.4 percent smaller than its conventional counterpart.

In this paper, we designed and implemented a dual band chip antenna for WLAN, which contains within the small LAN card contrary to the enternal AP(Access Point) antenna. Limiting about the antenna size, we used dielectrics of high permittivity. Totally considering problems of demand-supply, price and characteristics, we used that relative dielectrics of ceramic is 9.8 and the thickness is 3.5mm and 5mm. Ceramic antenna can be used not only triple mode of IEEE 802.11.a,g and b but also broadband. The frequency bands have wideband characteristics of 2.4~2.5GHz and 4.9~5.85GHz and relatively constant performance.

The needs of ultra-precisely machined parts are increasing more and more. But the experimental data required to ultra precision machining of nonferrous metal is insufficient. The behavior of cutting in micro cutting area is different from that of traditional cutting because of the size effect. Copper is widely used as optical parts such as LASER reflector's mirror and multimedia instrument. In experimental, after oxygen-free copper is machined by ultra precision machine with natural mono crystal diamond tool (NCD) and synthetic poly crystal diamond tool (PCD), we compared chip formation and tool's wear according to used tool. Also, we researched optimized cutting condition with the results measured according to cutting condition such as spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut. As a result, the optimal working condition that makes good surface roughness is obtained. The surface roughness is good when spindle speed is above 80 m/min, and feed rate is small and depth of cut is above 0.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. In cutting of klystron anode and cavity 3.2 nmRa of surface roughness is obtained.
