SMC(Soft Magnetic Composite) materials which we have newly developed were studied for their applying effects. It shows almost the same motor output power as the laminated Si-steels of 0.35mm in thickness, although core loss of SMC is about 1.5 times that of the laminations. As shown in the results, the SMC motor core is sufficient for real use as a motor core. Furthermore, a 3-D shaped motor core made of SMC can improve approximately 20% of the output compared with the same size motor made of laminations.

Two axial flux permanent magnet (AFPM) machines using soft magnetic composite (SMC) and lamination steel are studied. Generally stator cores of AFPM machines are manufactured using SMC because AFPM machines need 3 dimensional core structures. However, SMC cores have very disadvantages in magnetic properties. Especially permeability value is much lower than that of lamination steel, so magnetic field density is also lower. In terms of core losses, SMC cores have much larger loss values than lamination steel cores because SMC core can't be laminated. In this study, AFPM machine was designed using laminated steel, and iron losses in two machines using SMC and laminated steel were studied. Simulations were carried out by a commercial 3-D FEM tool.

In this paper, we present a soft IP compiler for the Reed-Solomon decoder that generates a fully synthesizable VHDL core exploiting characteristic parameters and design constraints that we newly classify for the soft IP. It produces a structural design with an estimable regular architecture based on a finite state machine with a datapath (FSMD). Since characteristic parameters provide different design points on the design space, using one of two simple procedures called the constructive search with area increment (CSAI) and constructive search with speed decrement (CSSD) for design space exploration, the core compiler makes it possible for an IP user to create the Reed-Solomon decoder with appropriate sub-architectures without synthesizing many models. Experimental results show that the IP compiler can apply to several industry standards.

In this letter, we propose a new soft decoding method for a Core-Layer(CL) signal in ATSC3.0 Layered-Division-Multiplexing Multiple-Inputs-Multiple-Outputs broadcasting systems. Unlike a conventional Gaussian-Approximation(GA) method, the proposed method decodes the CL signal by reducing a Enhanced-Layer signal simply to a QPSK signal, and thus exhibits greatly improved performance compared to the GA method especially for a lower CL injection-level.

The use of soft magnetic materials have been increasing in the various industrial fields according to the increasing demand for high performance, automatic, miniaturing equipments in the recent our life. In this study, we investigated the effect of factors on the core loss and magnetic properties of electrical steel and soft magnetic composites. Furthermore, we reviewed the major efforts to reduce the core loss and improve the soft magnetic properties in the two main soft magnetic materials. Domain purification which results from reduced density of defects in cleaner electrical steels is combined with large grains to reduce hysteresis loss. The reduced thickness and the high electrical conductivity reduce the eddy current component of loss. Furthermore, the coating applied to the surface of electrical steel and texture control lead to improve high permeability and low core loss. There is an increasing interest in soft magnetic composite materials because of the demand for miniaturization of cores for power electronic applications. The SMC materials have a broad range of potential applications due to the possibility of true 3-D electromagnetic design and higher frequency operation. Grain size, sintering temperature, and the degree of porosity need to be carefully controlled in order to optimize structure-sensitive properties such as maximum permeability and low coercive force. The insulating coating on the powder particles in SMCs eliminates particle-to-particle eddy current paths hence minimizing eddy current losses, but it reduces the permeability and to a small extent the saturation magnetization. The combination of new chemical composition with optimum powder manufacturing processes will be able to result in improving the magnetic properties in soft magnetic composite materials, too.

In this paper, we designed a Delayed Dual Core Lock-Step (D-DCLS) processor where two cores operate same instructions with delay and the result is compared to mitigate soft errors and common mode failures in automotive electronic systems. Because D-DCLS does not know which core an error occurred in, each core must be recovered to the point before the error occurred, but complex hardware modifications are required to return all intermediate values on the pipeline stage. In this paper, in order for easy hardware implementation, all register values are saved to a buffer whenever a branch instruction is executed. When an error is detected, the saved register values are automatically restored, and then 'BX LR' instruction is executed to return to the last branch point. The proposed D-DCLS processor was designed using Verilog HDL and was confirmed to continue normal operation after automatically recovering error.

Co-based amorphous powder was produced by a new atomization process "Spinning Water Atomization Process (SWAP)", having rapid super-cooling rate. The composition of the alloys was ($(Co_{0.95}Fe_{0.05})_{1-x}Cr_x$)$_{75}Si_{15}B_{10}$ (x=0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075). The powders became the amorphous state even if particle size was up to about $500{\mu}m$. The coercive force of powders was about 0.35 - 0.7 Oe. Furthermore, Co-based amorphous powder cores with glass binders were made by cold-pressing and sintering methods. The initial permeability of the core in the frequency range up to 100 kHz was about 110, and the core loss at 100 kHz for Bm = 0.1 T was $350kW/m^3$.

The amorphous $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_3Cu_1$ alloy strip was pulverized to get a flake-shaped powder after annealing at $425^{\circ}C$ for 90 min and subsequently ground to obtain finer flake-shaped powder by using a ball mill. The powder was mixed with polyimide-based binder of $0.5{\sim}3wt%$, and then the mixture was cold compacted to make a toroidal powder core. After crystallization treatment for 1 hour at $380{\sim}600^{\circ}C$, the powder was transformed from amorphous to nanocrystalline with the grain size of $10{\sim}15nm$. Soft magnetic characteristics of the powder core was optimized at $550{\sim}600^{\circ}C$ with the insulating binder of 3wt%. As a result, the powder core showed the outstanding magnetic properties in terms of core loss and permeability, which were originated from the optimization of the grain size and distribution of the insulating binder.
