본 논문에서는 각각의 스위치 시비율(Duty ratio)의 변화를 이용한 기존의 풀-브릿지 방식과 두 쌍의 스위치 신호 위상 변화를 이용한 위상천이 풀-브리지(Phase-shift Full-bridge) 방식의 차이점을 서술하였다. 위상천이 컨버터의 안정성을 연구하기 위하여, 출력 전류의 맥동(ripple)을 작게 하는 배전류(Current Doubler) 정류회로와 효율을 높이기 위한 동기 정류기(Synchronous Rectifier)를 포함한 평균화 된 스위치 모델을 제안한다. 이 모델을 이용하여 PSPICE 시뮬레이션을 통해 안정성을 고찰하였으며 1.2kW급 170-14V DC-DC 컨버터의 시작품을 제작 후 시뮬레이션 결과와 시작품 결과를 비교하였다. 시뮬레이션의 경우 위상여유는 $58^{\circ}$ 시작품의 위상여유는 $68^{\circ}$로 나타났으며 교차주파수는 12kHz로 동일하게 나오는 것을 확인하였다. 따라서 제안한 시뮬레이션 모델을 이용하여 실제 회로의 안정성을 예측할 수 있으며 이를 실제 회로 제작에 활용 할 수 있다.

The redundant operation of a parallel AC to DC converter via a serial communication bus is presented. The proposed system consists of three isolated CUK power factor correction modules. The controller for each converter is a dsPIC30F6010 microcontroller while a RS485 communication bus and the clock signal are used for synchronizing the data communication. The control strategy of the redundant operation relies on the communication of information among each of the modules, which communicate via a RS485 serial bus. This information is received from the communication checks of the converter module connected to the system to share the load current. Performance evaluations were conducted through experimentation on a three-module parallel-connected prototype, with a 578W load and a -48V dc output voltage. The proposed system has achieved the following: the current sharing is quite good, both the transient response and the steady state. The converter modules can perform the current sharing immediately, when a fault is found in another converter module. In addition, the transient response occurs in the system, and the output voltages are at their minimum overshoot and undershoot. Finally, the proposed system has a relatively simple implementation for the redundant operation.

This paper presents an AC-DC power module design and evaluates its efficiency and reliability when used for electronics appliances. This power module consists of a PWM control IC, power MOSFETs, a transformer and several passive devices. The module was tested at an input voltage of 220V (RMS) (frequency 60 Hz). A test was conducted in order to evaluate the operation and power efficiency of the module, as well as the reliability of its protection functions, such as its over-current protection (OVP), overvoltage protection (OVP) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) properties. Especially, we evaluated the thermal shut-down protection (TSP) function in order to assure the operation of the module under high temperature conditions. The efficiency and reliability measurement results showed that at an output voltage of 5 V, the module had a ripple voltage of 200 mV, power efficiency of 73 % and maximum temperature of $80^{\circ}C$ and it had the ability to withstand a stimulus of high input voltage of 4.2 kV during 60 seconds.

The power management integrated circuit(PMIC) for CCD image sensor is presented in this study. A CCD image sensor is very sensitive against temperature. The temperature, that is heat, is generally generated by the PMIC with low efficiency. Since the generated heat influences performance of CCD image sensor, it should be minimized by using a PMIC which has a high efficiency. In order to develop the PMIC with high efficiency, the input stage is designed with synchronous type step down DC-DC converter. The operating range of the converter is from 5V to 15V and the converter is controlled using PWM method. The PWM control circuit consists of a saw-tooth generator, a band-gap reference circuit, an error amplifier and a comparator circuit. The saw-tooth generator is designed with 1.2MHz oscillation frequency. The comparator is designed with the two stages OP Amp. And the error amplifier has 40dB DC gain and $77^{\circ}$ phase margin. The output of the step down converter is connected to input stage of the charge pump. The output of the charge pump is connected to input of the LDO which is the output stage of the PMIC. Finally, the PMIC, based on the PWM control circuit and the charge pump and the LDO, has output voltage of 15V, -7.5V, 3.3V and 5V. The PMIC is designed with a 0.35um process.

This is a thesis that 100W class open frame type power module of a quarter-brick size appropriate for telecommunication is reported. The input voltage is established between 36 and 75 in range in order for power module to be utilized for the telecommunication, and output were set at 3.3V and 30A. A number of parts used for transformer, inductor, and hit sink are composed of PCB in order for DC-DC converter to be lowered below 8 mm. A constant current control circuit was annexed to the system as well as basic protection prototypes such as over-voltage, over-current, and over-temperature were well considered to enhance more credibility, and were tested. As a result, high circuit performance and credibility turned out to be significant.

In this paper, a novel multi voltage inverter system is proposed for reductions of harmonics, which can compensate reactive power. At first, we remove capacitor at input side for reactive power compensation. Secondly, by adding DC voltage to the filter capacitor, it can control power factors as lead-phase according to alterations of loads at power reception. Thirdly, if winding and single phase-bridge inverter(auxiliary circuit) is installed to DC power for reduction of harmonic, waveform of output voltages become to 36-steps. Thus, SVC(static var compensator) systems which can reduce harmonics are designed.

In this paper, a single-phase to three-phase PWM converter topology using six switches only for low cost induction motor drive is proposed. The converter topology is of lower cost than the conventional one, which gives sinusoidal input current, unity power factor, dc output voltage control and bidirectional power flow In addition, the source voltage sensor is eliminated by controlling the deviation between the model current and the system current to be zero. The performance of the proposed converter has been demonstrated through the computer simulation.

This paper presents a simplified modulation strategy for the three-leg VSI fed two-winding induction motor. The strategy provides independent unbalanced voltage control for the main and auxiliary windings. This make the motor can be reversed rotation through the range of motor speed operation without limitation of voltage boost of the auxiliary winding. To study the advantages of the proposed drive, the experimental results such as voltage stresses, hysteresis band of the currents in locus, and also acoustic noise levels of the three-leg VSI are compared with those of the conventional two-leg topology. The results obviously show that the proposed technique achieves superior performance compared with the traditional scheme in case of dramatic increase of DC bus utilization, effective reduction of harmonic voltages content, and also significant enhancement of motor efficiency.
