FLL 회로는 측정된 신호를 voltage to current converter를 거쳐 feedbak coil에 인가함으로써 외부 자장을 상쇄하여 SQUID의 동작점을 원점으로 회귀시켜 선형 구간을 유지하도록 하는 역할을 한다. FLL회로의 동자 범위와 특성을 분석하기 위해서는 일반적인 time-delayed feedback 회로와 사용된 OP amp의 slew rate, filter 의 amplitude 및 위상 특성, SQUID의 critical current, pickup coil 및 SQUID의 inductance 등 다양한 파라미터를 고려하여야 한다. 이러한 SQUID 회로의 복합적인 특성을 SQUID 에뮬레이터를 사용함으로써 FLL 회로를 손쉽게 설계할 수 있고, 또한 회로의 최적화도 쉽게 이를 수 있다. 또한 초전도에서 동작하는 SQUID 나 자기 차폐실이 없어도 FLL 회로 등을 개발할 수 있기 때문에 생체자기시스템의 개발 초기 단계에 널리 활용될 수 있다. 따라서 이 논문의 목적은 FLL을 포함한 SQUID 제어 회로를 SQUID 센서와 분리하기 위한 방법을 제안하는 것으로 자기적으로 coupling되어 있는 feedback 회로를 회로적으로 addition을 수행하게 함으로써 SQUID와 분리하여 회로의 동작 및 특성을 측정할 수 있다.

Generally, due to the strong coherence between embedded software and hardware or peripheral software, embedded software is tested by using black-box test based on user scenario for the whole system. This paper suggests the method to coordinate between testing and debugging under consideration for difficulties on solving out the defects detected from black-box test. First of all, from test result analysis, it builds up the debugging strategies enable to trace the locations of the defect's causes. And along with the strategies, it implements the generator of test scripts to be performed on the emulator environment. Through these steps, it can coordinate embedded software testing and debugging activities.

Embedded system is tightly coupled with heterogeneous layers such as application, as kernel, device driver, HAL and hardware. Embedded system is customized for the specific purpose and hardware. In addition, the product cycle is so fast that software and hardware, which are developed by several vendors, are integrated together under unstable status. Therefore, there are lots of possibilities of faults in all layers. Because embedded software developers test their codes integrated with faulty layers, they cannot confirm 'whether testing of every aspects was completed, their code was failed, or integrated software/hardware has some problems'. In this paper, we propose an embedded software interface test method and a test tool called Justitia for detecting faults and tracing causes in the interface among heterogeneous layers. The proposed technique is an automated method which improves debugging upto professional testing using an emulator for helping developer.
