In the charge system, a contact type-convenient-charging method is insufficient because of the contact failure around moist environment and troublesome question to put in and pull out. For the solution of this problem, an electromagnetically coupled non-contact charger for the rechargeable cell is proposed using ZVS multi-resonant forward converter with synchronous rectifier. In this paper coupling coefficient(k), leaking inductance, coupling inductance and resonant frequency are observed for the air gap. By using the observed value, this circuit is designed and implemented. This proposed circuit is simulated by the PSPICE and experimented. The stress of a main switch and the output power are measured.

This paper proposes a harmonics reducing circuit for fluorescent lamp inverters using hybrid type smoothing circuit with pumping and smoothing capacitors. A waveform of full-wave rectification used as a direct current power supply at fluorescent lamp inverters contains a lot of harmonic wave from inrush current which is generated near the maximum of input voltage with purse shape when voltage smoothing capacitor is charged. Therefore, in order to suppress inrush current which will result in harmonic wave. this paper proposes a method to control abrupt charging current by use of charging voltage at pumping capacitor. The suppression of harmonics generation at lamp current is confirmed through simulations.

This study proposes a receiving pad identification coil for wireless charging of electric vehicles. The proposed coil identifies the shape of the receiving pad through magnetic coupling with the receiving pad. Therefore, the shape of the coil is designed to show the different magnetic properties of each receiving pad. The accuracy of this design is verified through finite element method simulation. Furthermore, the operation method of the secondary pad identification circuit is described, and the appropriate magnitude and length of the pulse voltage applied to this circuit for receiving pad identification are derived through simulation. The performance of the proposed identification coil set is verified by the experimental results.

This paper proposes a new circuit for the CDI system to have a constant ignition power at the engine speed range of 500 to 7500 rpm and the battery voltage range of 12 to 16 volts in the 4-cylinder automobile. The proposed CDI system has a closed-loop with a PWM DC-DC converter controlled by the error signal between capacitor voltage and reference voltage. In order to decrease the capacitor charging time, the primary winding of ignition coil is made to be shorted during capacitor charging. An experimental suystem is fabricated and the results obtained thereof are found to be satisfactory.

Recently, the seriousness of high blood pressure was appeared as the most frequent disease of a the whole sickness in the world. However, the treatment of this disease is uncertain and produces an adverse reaction of a medicine therapy. Also, the patients are burdened with a fee for medical treatment. Therefore, in this paper, we studied effectively and financially to execute the treatment of high blood pressure using the Chinese medicine theorem that is recently arousing the great interest of the people. The main theories in this paper are blood vessel theory and acupuncture, respectively. Especially, the composed circuit systems are classified the blood pressure depressor part and the meridian points discrimination part, respectively. The blood pressure depressor part is composed generally of low-frequency generation circuit, charging-discharging circuit, and micro-computer circuit. Finally, this research have the advantage of discrimination parts such as regular voltage generating circuit, stimulus circuit, amplifying circuit, and alarm circuit.

As the battery ages, the internal resistance of the battery increases, so the loss due to the internal resistance increases at the same charging current, causing the battery temperature to rise, which further accelerates battery aging. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the charging conditions according to the aging of the battery or the current charge amount, and to accurately estimate this, estimation of the parameters of the equivalent circuit is most important. This paper proposes a new measurement technique that can measure the internal resistance of a battery by analyzing a specific high frequency voltage and current applied to the battery. In addition, in order to test the validity of the proposed measurement technique, the current charging amount was estimated based on the measured internal resistance, and the terminal voltage of the constant current charging mode was automatically set and operated. As a result, good results were obtained regardless of the battery voltage. If this equipment is installed in the charging device, it is believed that it will be of great help in the stability management of the aging reusable battery.

A prototype semiconductor switch for the command resonant charging system has been developed for a line type modulator, which charges parallel pulse forming network(PFN) up to voltage of 5 kV at repetition rates of 60 Hz. A phase controlled power supply provides charging of the 4.7 ${\mu}s$ filter capacitor bank to voltage up to 5 kV. A solid state module of series stack array of sixe matched SCRs(1.6 kV, 50 A) is used as a command charging switch to initiate the resonant charging cycle. Both resistive and RC snubber network are used across each stage of the switch assembly in order to ensure proper voltage division during both steady state and transient condition. A master trigger signal is generated to trigger circuits which are transmitted through pulse transformer to each of the 6 series switch stages. A pulse transformer is required for high voltage trigger or power isolation. This paper will discuss trigger method, protection scheme, circuit simulation, and test result.

The effect of electrode charging on the ion energy distribution (IED) was investigated in the dual-frequency capacitively coupled plasma source which was powered of 100 MHz RF at the top electrode and 400 kHz bias on the bottom electrode. The charging property was analyzed with the distortion of the measured current and voltage waveforms. The capacitance and the resistance of electrode sheath can change the property of ion and electron charging on the electrode so it is sensitive to the plasma density which is controlled by the main power. The ion energy distribution was estimated by equivalent circuit model, being compared with the measured distribution obtained from the ion energy analyzer. Results show that the low frequency bias power changes effectively the low energy population of ion in the energy distribution.

In this paper, we show that, in case of piezoelectric micropower generator, just replacing Schottky diodes in the bridge rectifier with ultra-low reverse leakage current diodes improves the mechanical-to-electrical energy conversion efficiency by more than 100%. Experimental and PSPICE simulation results show that, due to the ultra-low leakage current, the charging speed of the circuit employing PAD1 is higher than that of the circuit employing Schottky diodes and the saturation voltage of the circuit employing PAD1 is also higher. This study suggests that , when the internal impedance of source is very large (a few tens of $M{\Omega}$) such that maximum charging current is a few microamperes or less, in order to realize literally the energy scavenging system, ultra-low reverse leakage current diodes should be used for efficient energy conversion. Since low-level vibration is ubiquitous in the environment ranging from human movement to large infrastructures and the mechanical-to-electrical energy conversion efficiency is much more critical for use of these vibrations, we believe that the improvement in the efficiency using ultra-low leakage diodes, as found in this work, will widen greatly the application of piezoelectric micropower generator.
