The purpose of this study is to solve the problems of radio frequency bandwidth frequency depletion, confusion possibilities, and security that are in current wireless communications systems, and to confirm the possibility of applying those solutions for the next generation network. To solve the problems of the current wireless communications system, a visible light communications system for power line communication (PLC) via 8-bit microcontroller is created and the capacity is analyzed. The exclusive PLC chip APLC-485MA, an 8-bit ATmega16 microcontroller, high brightness 5pi light emitting diodes (LEDs), and the LLS08-A1 visible light-receiving sensor were used for the transmitter and receiver. The performance was analyzed using a designed program and an oscilloscope. The voltage change was measured as a function of distance from 10-50 cm. Blue LEDs showed the best performance among the measured LED types, with 0.47 V of voltage loss, but for a distance over 50 cm, precise data was not easy to obtain due to the weak light. To overcome these types of problems, specific values such as the changing conditions and efficiency value relevant to the light emitting parts and the visible light-receiving sensor should be calculated, and continuous study and improvements should also be realized for better communication conditions.

This paper presents a digital LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) backlight inverter control using an 8-bit microcontroller. The backlight uses cold cathode fluorescent lamps(CCFLs) that have the negative resistance characteristics, so it requires the ballast function. For this, the proposed LCD backlight inverter uses an 8-bit microcontroller, ATmega128. Therefore, the controller circuit is simplified and cost-minimized. It shows through the experimental results that the proposed inverter has good performance for the LCD backlight inverter.

A quasi-resonant flyback converter using a simple 8-bit microcontroller for a LED lighting is proposed in this paper. The proposed converter is easily and precisely controlled by the simple controller using a low-cost 8-bit microcontroller. Also, in order to operate the 8-bit microcontroller, the proposed converter system does not require any additional power supply for the controller. A prototype power supply is developed to supply a 270[W] LED lighting with the wide input voltage ranges ($175[V_{ac}]-265[V_{ac}]$). Experimental results will be show the practicality and validity of the proposed circuit.

In this paper, we propose and implement a method to optimize Rainbow for 8 bit MCU(Microcontroller Unit). As quantum computers have been developed, the security of existing cryptography, especially the signature algorithms, has been threatened, so it is necessary to apply a signature scheme with a quantum-resistance to IoT devices. Currently, the proposed PQC(Post Quantum Cryptography) are lattice-based, hash-based, code-based, and MQ(Multivariate Quadratic)-based cryptographic algorithms and signature schemes. In particular, MQ-based signature schemes are faster than conventional signature schemes and are suitable for IoT devices Do. However, it is difficult to apply 8-bit MCU, which has a large key length and large number of computations, to the memory and performance of IoT devices. In this paper, we propose a method of storing Rainbow, which is a MQ-based signing scheme, in 8-bit MCU by dividing the key and optimizing the computation method. By reducing the memory consumption and improving the algorithm speedily, Compare performance.

In this paper, we first define a total of 64 instructions that are considered to be essential and frequently used, construct a datapath diagram, determine the control sequence using a finite state machine, and implement an 8-bit microcontroller using FPGA in VHDL. In the past, only functional simulation results of a rudimentary microcontroller were reported, the microcontroller lacked interrupt handling capability, or it was not implemented in hardware. We have designed a self-contained 8-bit microcontroller such that it can perform data transfer, addition, and logical operations, as well as stack and external interrupt operations. Following timing simulation of the designed microcontroller, we implemented it in an FPGA and verified its operation successfully. The design and implementation has been done under the Altera MAX+PLUS II integrated development environment using the EP1K50TC144-3 chip. The maximum operating frequency, the total number of logic elements used, and the logic utilization were found to be 9.39 MHz, 2813, and 97%, respectively. The result can be used as a microcontroller IP, and as needs arise, the VHDL code can be modified accordingly.

A low frequency square wave electronic ballast for the high intensity discharge(HID) lamps using fuzzy logic controller is developed. This electronic ballast consists a buck converter, a low frequency square wave full bridge inverter, a high voltage pulse generator for the HID lamp ignition, an over current protection circuit and an 8-bit microcontroller. The ballast system is operated on the constant current mode during the HID lamp start-up process and the system is operated on the constant power mode during steady state. Experimental results show that the fuzzy logic control operation is carried out successfully by the 8-bit microcontroller PIC16F877 In this electronic ballast system, in spite of the limited control bandwidth caused by low operating speed of the microcontroller, the good performance in the constant lamp current characteristic is obtained. Acoustic resonance of the HID lamps can be effectively avoided because the instantaneous In lamp power is fully constant due to the low frequency square wave drive.

This paper suggests a 8-bit RISC microcontroller, which has a 4-stage pipeline architecture. Many low-power design techniques that have been proposed by previous works are adopted into it. The proposed microcontroller consumes only 600㎼ per MIPS for 0.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS process and even lower power of 70㎼ per MIPS for 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ process. The RTL level design of this microcontroller is carried out using VHDL. The functional verification is thoroughly done at the gate level using 0.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ CMOS IDEC standard cell library. This microcontroller contains 7000 NAND gates on a 0.36$\textrm{mm}^2$ die using 0.25${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ process. Finally the comparison of power consumption with other conventional microcontrollers is provided.

Studying the effects of gamma radiation on the instrumentation and control (I&C) system of a nuclear power plant is critical to the successful and reliable operation of the plant. In the accidental scenario, the adverse environment of ionizing radiation affects the performance of the I&C system and it leads to inaccurate and incomprehensible results. This paper reports the effects of gamma radiation on the AT89C51RD2, a commercial-off-the-shelf 8-bit high-performance flash microcontroller. The microcontroller, selected for the device under test for this study is used in the remote terminal unit for a nuclear power plant. The custom circuits were made to test the microcontroller under different gamma doses using a ⁶⁰Co gamma source in both ex-situ and in-situ modes. The device was exposed to a maximum dose of 1.5 kGy. Under this hostile environment, the performance of the microcontroller was studied in terms of device current and voltage changes. It was observed that the microcontroller device can operate up to a total absorbed dose of approximately 0.6 kGy without any failure or degradation in its performance.
