휴대용 전자기기들의 소비전력 증가에 따라 2차전지에 비해 에너지 밀도가 높은 연료전지를 이용한 충전기의 필요성이 부각되고 있다. 대다수의 충전기는 On-Grid 방식으로 벅타입 컨버터를 이용한 감압 방식이었으나, 연료전지를 이용할 경우 승압식 컨버터를 통한 배터리의 충전이 요구된다. 또한 배터리는 일반 저항부하와 달리 큰 커패시턴스 성분을 가지고 있기 때문에 컨버터의 출력단에 인덕터가 없는 경우 큰 출력 리플전류를 유도하게 되어 시스템의 효율과 배터리의 수명에 좋지 않은 영향을 끼치게 된다. 또한 이를 해결하기 위해 절연형 감압 컨버터를 사용하는 경우 변압기 사용에 의한 부피 증가와 부가 소자의 사용에 따른 가격 상승을 피하기 어렵다. Cuk 컨버터는 주스위치의 ON/OFF 동작에 관계없이 출력으로 에너지가 항상 전달되며, 이상적으로 리플이 거의 존재하지 않아 충전용으로 적합하다. 또한, 승압 및 감압이 자유롭기 때문에 배터리의 정격전압에 상관없는 범용 충전기의 설계도 가능하다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Cuk 컨버터를 이용하여 배터리 충전기를 설계하고, 그의 상태공간 모델링, 주파수 특성 해석 및 제어기 설계에 대해 기술한다. 제안된 제어 방식은 소형 연료전지 스택을 이용하여 실제 배터리를 대상으로 한 정전류 및 정전압 제어를 실행하여 그 성능 및 안정성을 검증한다.

This research presents an approach to simultaneously detect the faults and measure the length of the electric cables. This approach is easy to use and inexpensive. Moreover, it can be applied to any kinds and sizes of the electric cable. This paper uses 750V $4{\times}4$ Sq.mm. cables. The concept is to send the 2 kHz pulse into the electric cable. When the pulse bumps into the fault, it bounces back. Then, the total time the pulse travels back and forth and the shape of the pulse after bumping are inspected using the pulse detector and pulse converter. Next, the signal obtained is modulated with 10 MHz carrier pulse to segregate into several small pulses before sending to 8-bit counter. The length of the electric cable can be obtained using microcontroller and the location of the faults can be seen on the LCD screen. This approach can be used to inspect the electric cables with the length of at least 15 m.

기존 자가발전 운동기구용 컨버터의 경우, 운동레벨을 조절하기 위한 입력임피던스 조절기능이 없거나, 조절기능을 추가하는 경우 복잡한 topology를 동반되는 경우가 일반적이다. 또한 복잡한 회로를 추가하게 되면 회로의 전체적인 부피가 증가하고, 원가가 상승할 뿐만 아니라, 회로의 신뢰성도 현저하게 저하시키는 등 회로 상용화를 어렵게 만든다. 본 논문에서는 입력 전압 및 전류 제어 방식을 이용하지 않고, 컨버터 구조 자체로 입력 임피던스를 제어하는 방식을 제안한다. 제안 방식은 입력전압, 입력전류 두 가지의 제어를 실행하지 않음으로써 복잡한 피드백 제어 단의 삭제가 가능하며, 이를 통해 회로의 높은 신뢰성 및 부피, 원가 감소 효과를 얻을 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 Flyback 컨버터를 이용하여, 이론적 특성 분석과 200W급 시작품을 통한 실험적 분석을 통해 그 타당성을 검증한다.

In the dissertation, a power conversion system for fuel cell is composed of a PWM inverter with LC filter in order to convert fuel cell voltage to a single phase 220[V], In addition, new insulated DC-DC converters are proposed in order that fuel cell voltage is boosted to 380[V]. In this paper, it requires smaller components than existing converters, which makes easy control. The proposed DC-DC converter controls output power by the adjustment of phase-shift width using switch S5 and S6 in the secondary switch, which provides 93-97[%] efficiency in the wide range of output voltage. Fuel cell simulator is implemented to show similar output characteristics to actual fuel cell. Appropriate dead time td enables soft switching to the range where the peak value of excitation current in a high frequency transformer is in accordance with current in the primary circuit. Moreover, appropriate setting to serial inductance La reduces communication loss arisen at light-load generator and serge voltage arisen at a secondary switch and serial diode. Finally, TMS320C31 board and EPLD using PWM switching technique to act a single phase full-bridge inverter which is planed to make alternating current suitable for household.

The InGaP/GaAs hetero-junction bipolar transistor(HBT) monolithic voltage-controlled dielectric resonator oscillator(VCDRO) is first demonstrated for a Ku-band low noise block down-converter(LNB) system. The on-chip voltage control oscillator core employing base-collector(B-C) junction diodes is proposed for simpler frequency tuning and easy fabrication instead of the general off-chip varactor diodes. The fabricated VCDRO achieves a high output power of 6.45 to 5.31 dBm and a wide frequency tuning range of ]65 MHz( 1.53 $\%$) with a low phase noise of below -95dBc/Hz at 100 kHz offset and -115 dBc/Hz at ] MHz offset. A]so, the InGaP/GaAs HBT monolithic DRO with the same topology as the proposed VCDRO is fabricated to verify that the intrinsic low l/f noise of the HBT and the high Q of the DR contribute to the low phase noise performance. The fabricated DRO exhibits an output power of 1.33 dBm, and an extremely low phase noise of -109 dBc/Hz at 100 kHz and -131 dBc/Hz at ] MHz offset from the 10.75 GHz oscillation frequency.

Scribing the transparent conductive oxide(TCO) is an essential technology for the large scaled dye-sensitized solar cell(DSC) and the commercialization of the DSC. Laser systems are most used for scribing technology due to their precision. However, it is difficult to generalize systems because most systems are large and heavy. In this study, we tried to simplificate the Nd:YAG laser system for scribing TCO of the DSC by using switched mode power supply(SMPS) technique. The continuous conduction mode booster converter topology is applied and MC34262 power factor controller is used for the variable frequency control. Finally, SMPS circuit which specifications are 400W of capacity, 400V DC output and 98% of efficiency is fabricated. And it is demonstrated that the scribing TCO is completed by the Nd:YAG laser using this SMPS circuit.

As the developing of industry, the nonlinear equipments as inverter, converter, SMPS(Switching Mode Power Supply) and motor have been increased. But the sensitive electronic loads to the power quality, such as computers and other electronic equipments, have been spreaded out very fast. Thus, the power quality(PQ) problems and the real time power quality monitering(PQM) are one of the important issues in industry and building area for the intelligent control of the systems. One of them, PQM using PLC(Power Line Communication) have good merits that can send and receive the PQ information without any new network line. This paper presents the PQM hardware and software to monitor the PQ information by using PLC that meets the categories of IEEE Std. 1159.

A new active LED driver with high power factor (PF) and low total harmonic distortion (THD) compatible with a rapid-start ballast is proposed. An LC input filter is attached to the ballast to increase PF and reduce THD. A boost converter is then installed to regulate the LED current, where an unstable operating region has been newly identified. The unstable region is successfully stabilized by feedback control with two zeroes. The extremely high overall system of the 10th order is completely analyzed by the newly introduced phasor transformed circuits in static and dynamic analyses. Although a small DC capacitor is utilized, the flicker percentage of the LED is drastically mitigated to 1% by the fast controller. The proposed LED driver that employs a simple controller with a start-up circuit is verified by extensive experiments whose results are in good agreement with the design.
