디지털 앰프, 흑은 D급 앰프에서는 기존의 앰프와 달리 펄스 폭 변조(PWM) 방식을 사용한 스위칭을 이용하므로 $90\%$를 상회하는 고효율을 달성한다고 알려져 있다. 하지만, 입력 레벨이 작은 신호가 많은 일반적인 경우에도 전원 전압에 해당하는 큰 전압으로 스위칭하게 되므로 작은 입력 시의 효율은 상당히 떨어진다. 본 논문에서는 기존 앰프보다 효율을 높일 수 있는 4, 5-State PWM 방법을 제시하였으며, 시뮬레이션 결과 기존 PWM 사용 앰프에 비하여 대략 효율이 $40\%$ 상승하여 방열판과 앰프의 크기를 줄일 수 있다. 또한 스위칭 주파수가 기폰 방법 대비 1/2로 감소하므로 디지털 앰프의 실용화에 가장 큰 걸림돌이었던 전자파 방출의 양도 크게 감소한다.

The pulse width modulation(PWM) method has been generally used as conventional method controlling luminance of LED(light emitting diode). PWM method as analog method with a relation that duty ratio of LED be proportional to luminance has weak point that it is not compatible with digital method of communication etc. In this paper, a experiment is conducted which the luminance of RGB LED be controlled by digital method. For this, the LED digital control system is developed which consist of LED driving circuits and digital logic circuits. By controlling the number of pluses on RGB LED versus digital input, various lighting colors is implemented and digital codes are optimized in order that measured x, y chromaticity coordinates of lighting colors are comprised in the CIE chromaticity coordinates area of targeted lighting colors. The result of this study can be utilized usefully in research on implementing full color by using remote control of LED lamp with digital communication.

A CMOS band-pass delta-sigma modulator(BPDSM) and cascode class-E power amplifier have been developed CMOS for Class-S power amplifier applications. The BPDSM is operating at 1-GHz sampling frequency, which converts a 250-MHz sinusoidal signal to a pulse-width modulated digital signal without the quantization noise. The BPDSM shows a 25-dB SQNR(Signal to Quantization Noise Ratio) and consumes a power of 24 mW at an 1.2-V supply voltage. The class-E power amplifier exhibits an 18.1 dBm of the maximum output power with a 25% drain efficiency at a 3.3-V supply voltage. The BPDSM and class-E PA were fabricated in the Dongbu's 110-nm CMOS process.

In this paper, we propose a DFD (Digital Frequency Discriminator) design that has better frequency discrimination and a smaller size. Electronic warfare equipment can analyze different types of radar signal such as those based on Frequency, Pulse Width, Time Of Arrival, Pulse Amplitude, Angle Of Arrival and Modulation On Pulse. In order for electronic warfare equipment to analyze radar signals with a narrow pulse width (less than 100ns), they need to have a special receiver structure called IFM (Instantaneous Frequency Measurement). The DFD (Digital Frequency Discriminator) is usually used for the IFM. Because the existing DFDs are composed of separate circuit devices, they are bulky, heavy, and expensive. To remedy these shortcomings, we use a three delay line ($1{\lambda}$, $4{\lambda}$, $16{\lambda}$) in the DFD, instead of the four delay line ($1{\lambda}$, $4{\lambda}$, $16{\lambda}$, $64{\lambda}$) generally used in the existing DFDs, and apply the microwave integrated circuit method. To enhance the frequency discrimination, we detect the pulse amplitude and perform temperature correction. The proposed DFD has a frequency discrimination error of less than 1.5MHz, affording it better performance than imported DFDs.

In this paper, proportional modulator which controls the second pressure of the pneumatic system was studied and proportional operating of modulator was gotten by two digital valves that have a fast dynamic characteristics and were controlled by PWM operating method. In order to more precision pressure control, this modulator consist of not only high speed two digital valves but also pressure sensor, measurement equipment and controller having a microprocessing function. In this study, for the development of the new proportional modulator, various research such as PWM control method, test equipment manufacturing, testing and evaluation were accomplished.

In this research, We derived Recursive Least Squares(RLS) algorithm with adaptive maximum-likelihood channel estimate for digital pulse amplitude modulated sequence in the presence of intersymbol interference and additive white Gaussian noise. RLS algorithms have better convergence characteristics than conventional algorithms, LMS (Least Mean Squares) algorithms.

This study deals with the application of high speed on-off valves to an electro-hydraulic servo indexing system incorporated electro-hydraulic servo valces. Comparing with the electro-hydraulic servo valve the high speed on-off valve has some merits. Which included low price robustness to the oil contamination and dircect control without D/A converter. The considered sys-tem of this study is controlled by pulse width modulation(PWM) of the control law which is pro-duced by a PID controller which is used broadly in industrial equipments. The dynamic character-istics corresponding to variations of system parameters such as inertia moment system gain and supply pressure are investigated by computer simulation and experiment. Consequently the availability of the application of high speed on-off valve to servo indexing system instead of electro-hydraulic servo valve is confirmed.

In this paper, we present the design of delta-sigma modulation-based class-D amplifier for driving headphones in portable audio applications. The presented class-D amplifier generates PWM(pulse width modulation) signals using a single-bit fourth-order high-performance delta-sigma modulator. To achieve a high SNR(signal-to-noise ratio) and ensure system stability, the locations of the modulator loop filter poles and zeros are optimized and thoroughly simulated. The test chip is fabricated using a standard $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS process. The active area of the chip is $1.6mm^2$. It operates for the signal bandwidth from 20Hz to 20kHz. The measured THD+N(total harmonic distortion plus noise) at the $32{\Omega}$ load terminal is less than 0.03% from a 3V power supply.

In this study, to reduce vibration of step motor we use Microstep control. Microstep control of stepmotor is usually thought of as an extension of conventional stepmotor control technology. The essence ofmicro stepping is that we divide the full step of a stepmotor into a number of substep called microstep and cause the stepmotor to move through a substep per input pulse. In ideal case, bycontrolling the individual phase currents of a two-phase step motor sinusoidally we can get uniform torque and step angles. But due to the monlinear characteristics of the step motor, we need to compensate current waveform to improve the overall smoothness of the conventional micro stepping system. We implement digital Pulse Width Modulation(PWM) driver to drive step motor and microphone was used for detecting vibration. Driver enables speed change automatically byincreasing or decreasing micro stepping ratio which we call Automatic Switching on the Fly. To compensate the torque harmonics, Neural Networks is applied to the system and we foundcompensated optimal input current waveform. Finally we can get smooth motion of step motor in a wide range of motor speed.

This paper shows the results of the development of a small size of digital type continuous and intermittent welding auto-carriage based on microprocessor (Intel 80196KC) for welding process with long welding line. The developed welding auto-carriage loads welding torch and tracks welding line. It is an automaton largely used for welding process with a lot of long welding lines such as shipbuilding and structure. Most traditional auto-carriages have been developed based on analog circuit for open loop control. So this analog circuit welding auto-carriage cannon control welding speed. Specially welding auto-carriage for intermittent welding condition is so complicated and has the low precision of control performance in welding distance and non-welding distance. The auto-carriage developed in this paper has the following characteristics: It has not only functions of traditional carriage but also functions such as pseudo-welding process of big iron structures, intermittent welding in order to limit heat for welding thin plates, crater treatment of the final step of welding, acceleration at the initial step of welding and deceleration in the final step of welding. The main control board of auto-carriage, power supply system and DC motor drive wee developed and manufactured. The welding speed and the welding distance of the developed auto-carriage are controlled accurately by feedback control using photo-sensor. Hardware and software robust against the heat and noise produced on the welding process are developed.
