A energy efficient $V_{pp}$ generator using a variable pumping frequency for mobile DRAM is presented in this paper. The proposed $V_{pp}$ generator exploits 3 stages of a cross-coupled charge pump for energy efficiency. Instead of using a fixed pumping frequency in the conventional $V_{pp}$ generator, our proposed $V_{pp}$ generator adopts a voltage-controlled oscillator and uses variable frequencies to reduce the ramp-up time. As a result, our $V_{pp}$ generator generates 3.0 V output voltage with 24.0-${\mu}s$ ramp-up time at 2 mA current load and 1 nF capacitor load with 1.2 V supply voltage. Experimental results show that the proposed $V_{pp}$ generator consumes around 26% less energy (1573 nJ $\rightarrow$ 1162 nJ) and reduces 29% less ramp-up time (33.7-${\mu}s$ $\rightarrow$ 24.0-${\mu}s$) compared to the conventional approach.

무선급전 시스템에서 대기 모드 시에도 전력을 소모하는 비중이 큰 수신부 통신 모듈을 OFF 시켜서 대기전력을 낮출 수 있다. 이때 대기모드 시 PFC 동작을 OFF 시키게 되면 추가로 대기전력을 더 낮출 수 있지만 PFC가 OFF된 상태에서는 AC 입력전압 크기에 따라 인버터 입력 전압 범위가 크게 변동하게 된다. 하지만 수신 통신 모듈 OFF시에는 무선통신을 통한 출력전압제어를 할 수 없기 때문에 안정적인 전력전달이 힘들다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 대기모드 시 출력전압을 일정 수준으로 제어하기 위해, 입력전압 크기에 따른 Feed-forward 구조를 통하여 동작 주파수를 가변 하는 무선전력전송 시스템을 구현하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 P-HEMT Gate-바이어스 튜닝에 의한 위상동기 마이크로파 발진기를 설계하였다. 설계된 유전체 발진기는 병렬궤환공진 형태로서 P-HEMT의 게이트단에서 전압을 제어하여 전압제어발진기 형태로 주파수를 가변시키므로서 안정된 위상동기신호를 나타나도록 하였다. 위상동기방식은 외부에서 제공되는 125㎒의 기준주파수를 SRD로 체배시켜 하모닉 신호를 이용한 마이크로파 샘플링 위상검파 방식으로 설계하였으며, 유전체 발진기의 자유발진신호와 샘플링 신호사이의 위상비교에 의하여 ±1㎒ 범위의 고안정 특성을 갖는 13.25㎓대역의 위상고정 발진기의 동기화와 저 위상잡음을 나타내었다.

The direct torque control(DTC) of induction machines has the advantages of a simple control scheme and a very quick and robust torque response and its application is extended in the traction field. However, some drawbacks of the conventional DTC strategy using a hysteresis controller are the relatively large torque ripple in the steady state and the variation of switching frequency according to the amplitude of hysteresis bands and the motor operating conditions. In this paper, a navel direct t()roue control scheme of induction machines based on stator flux control and Space Vector Modulation Is proposed to acquire the advantage of a fixed switching period and the minimization of the torque and stator current ripple in a wide speed range. The effect of proposed method has been proven by simulations and experiments.

This paper proposes a low-voltage current-mode integrator for a continuous-time current-mode baseband channel selection filter. The low-voltage current-mode linear cascode integrator is introduced to offer advantages of high current gain and improved unity-gain frequency. The proposed current-mode integrator has fully differential input and output structure consisting of CMOS complementary circuit. Additional cascode transistors which are operated in linear region are inserted for bias to achieve the low-voltage feature. Frequency range is also controllable by selecting proper bias voltage. From simulation results, it can be noticed that the implemented integrator achieves design specification such as low-voltage operation, current gain, and unity gain frequency.

In a fixed AC power source the PWM techniques were used to vary the voltage and the fundamental frequency. The conventional PWM techniques due to the problem of commutation number and filter size have been studied the PWM output waveforms which applied the motor drive. However in this paper, the carrier frequency with sinusoidal PWM waveform is modulated from 10(KHz) to 45(KHz) using termination devices with high - speed switching capacity and applying LPF(Low Pass Filter) with small capacity to output of inverter and the PAM(Pulse Amplitude Modulation)is obtained. Considering the property of the speed and the control, the sinusoidal PWM control circuit was composed of the microprocessor and analog circuit. In experment result, the system properties are study on the sinusoidal voltage waveform with modulation index changing from 0.6 to 1.0.

In this paper, a new Open and Closed Loop Alternation(OCLA) frequency synthesizer is developed to eliminate a frequency error occurring in the transition state of a frequency hopping. This frequency synthesizer consists of a phase comparator(PC), two low pass filters(LPF), two voltage controlled oscillators(VCO), switching elements, a programmable divider and frequency hopping controller, and the stabilized output frequency can be obtained by switching performance. In addigion, it can be found that the characteristic of its circuit construction makes it easy to attach an external circuitry to the open loop.

In this paper, a half wave-length microstrip antenna was proposed to be able to continuously tune the resonant frequency in the stated area of UHF ISM band. By loading varactor diodes at both edges of the half wavelength antenna, where the electric field is the strongest, and varying the voltage in order to tune the electrical resonance length continuously, it is possible to automatically recover the resonant frequency and input impedance shifted by surrounding environment. When the microstrip antenna(center resonant frequency: 425 MHB) was tested, by adjusting the each voltages of varactor diodes from DC 0.6 to BC 3.0 volts, the resonant frequency under 20 dB return loss was varied 385 to 465 MHz. The peak gain was -0.2 dBd and return loss -10 dB bandwidth was 3.3 MHz(0.8 %).
