In this paper, a wide-input range CMOS multi-mode rectifier for wireless power transfer system is presented. The output voltage of multi-mode rectifier is sensed by comparator and switches are controlled based on it. The mode of multi-mode rectifier is automatically selected by the switches among full-wave rectifier, 1-stage voltage multiplier and 2-stage voltage multiplier. In full-wave rectifier mode, the rectified output DC voltage ranges from 9 V to 19 V for a input AC voltage from 10 V to 20 V. However, the input-range of the multi-mode rectifier is more improved than that of the conventional full-wave rectifier by 5V, so the rectified output DC voltage ranges from 7.5 V to 19 V for a input AC voltage from 5 V to 20 V. The power conversion efficiency of the multi-mode rectifier is 94 % in full-wave rectifier mode. The proposed multi-mode rectifier is fabricated in a $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS process with an active area of $2500{\mu}m{\times}1750{\mu}m$.

This paper presents the performance comparison of three types of full-wave rectifiers for vibration energy harvesting. The first rectifier is consisted of two active diodes and two MOSFETs, and the comparators of the active diodes are powered from the output of the rectifier. The second one is a 2-stage full-wave rectifier. It comprises the basic rectifier consisted of four MOSFETs and an active diode. The comparator is also powered from the output of the rectifier. The third one is an input powered rectifier. It has the same structure as the second rectifier, but the comparator is powered from the input of the rectifier. These rectifiers have been designed using a 0.35um CMOS process and their performances have been compared through simulations. In terms of efficiency, the first rectifier shows the best performance at heavy loads, but the second one is suitable at light loads. When the power consumption during absence of vibration is more important than efficiency, the input-powered rectifier is proper.

Diagnosis X-ray equipment localized at 1950's but it is developed suddenly at 1960's with demand together. Manufacture of Diagnostic X-ray equipment is controled by the KS regulation and the Ministry of Health and Welfare because of hazardous element etc. exposure by radiation. Most of diagnostic X-ray equipment ware single phase and three phase full-wave rectification but from 1980's it transforms it was exchanged in inverter type X-ray equipment. Inverter type X-ray equipment produces approximately 50~80% more average photon intensity then single phase full-wave rectification and the accuracy is high. But from a clinic it dose not use because expensive therefor the efficiency improvement of single phase full-wave rectification is necessary. We produced single phase full-wave rectification X-ray equipment control unit, high tension transformer, filament heating transformer, rectification circuit, high tension cable and others and evaluated efficiency, in result which is excellent compare with Rule of Safety Management and KS regulation.

Recently, miniaturization and low power consumption of electronic products and improved efficiency and power factor improvement have become a matter of great interest. In this paper, an AC-DC converter based on PWM control was designed and made. The AC-DC converter is designed with a structure in which one rectifier circuit and one output voltage control circuit are connected in series. The rectifier circuit is a diode-based single phase full-wave current circuit and the output voltage control circuit is a DC-DC conversion circuit based on PWM control. Arduino was used as the main control device for PWM control, and LCD was configured at the output stage so that the control result could be checked. The error between the output voltage displayed on the oscilloscope and LCD and the target output voltage was confirmed through repeated experiments with the test circuit, and the validity of the proposed design methodology was confirmed by showing an error rate of about 5% based on the oscilloscope measurement value.

I본 연구에서는 마이크로프로세서에 의한 3상 전파 제어정류기의 점호각 제어회로를 설계하였다. 제어회로는 8비트 마이크로프로세서, 점호신호 발생 ROM, Presettable카운터, N분주 카운터와 PLL IC 등으로 구성되어 있다. PLL 원리를 이용하여 주파수 체배회로를 구성하였기 때문에 점호각이 넓은 범위의 전원 주파수에서 제어될 수 있고 간단한 제어알고리즘으로 인해 처리시간이 줄어들므로 빠른 응답특성을 가질 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 기본 동작원리와 회로의 동작 특성에 대하여 설명하였고 좋은 동작 특성을 실험을 통해서 확인하였다. 이러한 동작원리는 싸이클로컨버터, 3상 교류 전압 조정기, dc 서보제어기와 다른 제어 시스템 등에도 적용이 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

본 논문에서는 가동물체형 AFPM 파력 발전기용 시뮬레이터 구현 및 실험을 수행하였다. 파력 발전기는 파도의 에너지를 이용하여 부이의 움직임에 따라 발전하는 방식이다. 기존의 소형 파력 발전 시스템의 경우 단순히 전파 정류하여 축전지에 충전하는 방식을 사용한다. 그러나 전파 정류기를 사용하는 경우 파도에 속도에 따른 최적의 발전량을 제어하지 못해 발전 효율이 떨어지는 단점이 있지만, 인버터를 사용하는 경우 속도에 따른 발전량을 순시 적으로 제어할 수 있어 발전 효율을 높일 수 있다. AFPM 파력 발전기의 제어를 위하여 전류제어기와 센서리스 알고리즘을 구성하였으며 구현된 제어기는 파력 발전 시뮬레이터 실험을 통하여 회전자 위치 추정 및 속도에 따른 제어 성능을 확인하였다.

This paper proposes a rectifier using bootstrapping and active body biasing in $0.11{\mu}m$ RF CMOS process. The proposed rectifier employs the full-wave rectifying structure with cross coupling and increases the power conversion efficiency by reducing the threshold voltage and leakage current using bootstrapping and active bias biasing. Also, it has been designed to be applied to a wide range of applications from 13.56 MHz used in wireless power transmission to 915 MHz used in RFID. As a measured result, 80 % of power conversion efficiency is obtained when the input power is 0 dBm at $10k{\Omega}$ load resistance and 13.56 MHz. Also 40 % of power conversion efficiency is shown in 915 MHz.

In this paper, a rectifier for WPC / A4WP wireless power transmission is designed. The proposed rectifier supports both WPC (Wireless Power Consortium) and A4WP (Alliance For Wireless Power) and is designed with full-bridge rectifier. WPC transmits power at the frequency of 100kHz to 205kHz and A4WP at the frequency of 6.75MHz. Since the bridge rectifier uses a MOSFET instead of a diode, the reverse current flows and the efficiency is affected if the output voltage is higher than the input voltage. Therefore, we added the reverse current detector that detects the current flowing through the MOSFET and shut off the reverse current. The frequency discriminator is used because the rectifier has different frequency band. The proposed rectifier was designed using $0.35{\mu}m$ CMOS high voltage process. The input voltage is up to 18V and the rectifier operates at 100kH to 205kHz, 6.78MHz frequency. The maximum efficiency is 94.8% and the maximum power transfer is 5.78W.
