This paper presents an advanced approach to simulate AC electric railway system in steady-state. The algorithm consists of two parts. One is circuit modeling of elements of electric railway system, the other is an analysis on electric circuit. The modeling procedure has two steps, in the first step, proposed is the modeling method which is considered to be an internal impedance of the autotransformers and mutual impedances between the feeding systems. For the load(locomotives) modeling which is the second step, improved results are obtained as application to the proposed constant power model compared with constant impedance model. In the analysis on electric circuit, a generalized analysis method using the loop equation has been proposed and there is no limit in the number of trains between the ATs. In addition, the computer simulation by the proposed model was practiced. Simulation result seems very reasonable. It is therefore concluded that techniques for the electric circuit modeling and analysis have been established. Accuracy of the techniques will be further investigated.

PDP driving circuit requires switching devices and capacitors to stand up high voltages over 160V. This is the main cause that the power consumption and the cost of a PDP driving circuit increase. Conventional PDP driving circuits consist of 3 voltage sources and 16 switching devices. In this paper, we propose a PDP driving circuit using 2 voltage sources and 12 switching devices that can be operated with a lower supply voltage than conventional driving circuit. The operation of the proposed driving circuit is verified by the computer simulation. Simulation results show that the output signal can drive PDP cell when the supply voltage is higher than 45V in the input frequency range 70kHz to 100kHz.

In this paper, we analyzed the short circuit current of a low voltage direct current distribution system. For the analysis, we performed the modeling of the low voltage direct current distribution system with a 6-pulse three-phase thyristor rectifier using the PSCAD/EMTDC, surveyed impedance of sources, transformers and distribution lines to run a simulation. A result of the simulation is that short circuit currents of the direct current distribution system with the rectifier decreased due to a thyristor-ON-resistance(Ron). But in case of the low thyristor-ON resistance, output fault current of the rectifier increased over three-phase short circuit current of an AC power system without a rectifier by regular ratio of the rectifier. Because the output fault current of the rectifier can increase over interrupting the capacity of circuit breakers, studying short circuit currents of a low voltage direct current distribution system with a rectifier is necessary for introducing the direct current distribution systems.

The main switch of high-frequency boost converter may be failed because the high switching current or voltage can damage this switch. The high switching stress can be reduced by snubber circuit. In this paper, a new passive snubber circuit which can recover trapped snubber energy without added control is proposed for boost converter. The control of boost converter with proposed snubber is the same as the conventional one. In addition, the energy recovery circuit can be implemented with a few passive components. The analysis for proposed circuit is presented, and the validity of the circuit is verified through simulation and experiment.

A readout circuit for Dual band IR detector was proposed and designed. Designed circuit provide to detector a stable diode bias and high injection efficiency using Buffered Direct Injection (BDI) input circuit. Then, amplifier in the unit cell is operated when cell is selected in order to minimize the power consumption. We could confirm through the simulation that designed circuit integrate and output simultaneously the signal generating from the dual band IR detector.

A new frequency-variant equivalent circuit model of power/ground plane is presented. The equivalent circuit is modeled with grid cells. The circuit parameters of each cell were extracted by using Fasthenry. To verify the developed circuit model, its s-parameters are compared with the measured s-parameters 〔2〕 and the full-wave simulation-based s-parameters. Consequently, it is shown that our frequency-variant equivalent circuit model can accurately predict imperfect ground effects under the high frequency operation of electronic package.

A concrete disign of memory circuit is presented aiming at the application of sliding diagonal test patterns. A modification of sliding diagonal test pattern includes the complexity reduction from O(n$^{32}$) to O(n) using parallel test memory concept. The control circuit design was based on delay-element, and verified via logic and circuit simulation. Area overhead was evaluated based on physical layout using a 0.7 micron design rule resulting in about 1% area increase for a typical 16Mbit DRAM.

In this study, we aim to converge a technology for analyzing the hydraulic circuit of a loading arm with an- other one for analyzing multi-body dynamics by utilizing analysis software SimulationX. Further, this study intends to overcome the limitations of the existing technology for analyzing a hydraulic circuit with a variation at the rotation center of the moving mass and the difficulty of incorporating the behavior in a gravity field. First, the specifications of the hydraulic circuit components were reflected in an analysis model to secure reliability. Hydraulic circuit modeling was then performed using a single analysis model with a verified reliability. Subsequently, the multi-body system (MBS) model of the loading arm was formed. Finally, the analysis model of the hydraulic circuit and the MBS model were converged to check if the circuit analysis result was exactly reflected in the MBS model. The convergence analysis model has development cost-saving effect because it is capable of predicting the dynamic behavior of an object without the prototype.

A short distance laser range detector was developed on digital circuit. The circuit changed the analog circuit to digital circuit as possible as. The currently available laser range circuit one uses analog circuit mainly. But this ranger design targeted mass production with digital reporting function. So digital circuits replaced the analog circuit except amplifier and remained minor circuits those are hard to replace with digital circuit. The simulation shows that it is possible to make a reasonable distance measuring circuit on a digital circuit for very low price compare to analog circuit one.
