The RFID tag IC has been presently abstracting great attention in the world because it can be one of the important sensor elements in the ubiquitous sense network in the future. The 125 kHz and 13.56 MHz RFID tag IC's have already been developed and now widely used in the world and the UHF band tag IC is under development. Domestically, the development of the 125 kHz tag IC was reported before, but there has been no report about the development of the 13.56 MHz tag IC up to now. In this paper, the results of the design, fabrication and measurement of a 13.56 MHz tag IC are discussed. The digital and the analog circuits for the chip were designed and the chip was fabricated using 0.35 ㎛ standard CMOS technology and measured with a separately prepared reader. It was found from the measurement results that it operated properly within 8 cm range of the reader.

In general, Power SCR(Silicon Controlled Rectifier) is most widely used in Power Plant as well as Industrial field. It has been controlled and operated according to its own control method. Especially, in case of Power plant, it plays a major role in AVR(Automatic Voltage Regulator) or electro chlorination control circuits. Generally, they used in Analog control system at above field. But each SCR current value is different because of load unbalance or switching characteristic variations, it may cause power plant unit trip or system disorder according to SCR element burn out or bad operating condition. Therefore, in this paper a development of 3 phase current balance control unit is described, it gets over the past analog control system limit, uses DSP(Digital signal processor) had high speed response, controls SCR gate firing angle for 3 phase current balance.

조합회로에 대한 ATPG 알고리듬이 효율적으로 100%의 고장 검출율을 달성할 수 있게 되어 감에 따라서 고장 검출율을 그대로 유지한 상태에서 테스트 패턴을 줄이는 압축 기법의 중요성이 점차로 부각되고 있다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 알고리듬은 고장들간의 독립과 양립 관계에 기초해서, 압축된 테스트 패턴을 위해서는 양립할 수 있는 고장 집합의 크기를 크게 해야 하므로, 고장-패턴 쌍과 고장들간의 독립과 양립 관계를 이용해서 고장-패턴 쌍의 트리 구조를 생성하였다. 이 고장-패턴 트리를 바탕으로 해서 효율적으로 압축된 테스트 패턴을 생성할 수 있었고, ISCAS 85와 ISCAS 89 측정 기준 회로에 대한 결과로 제시된 알고리듬의 우수성을 검증하였다.

We present an efficient hardware prime generator that generates a prime p by combining trial division and Fermat test in parallel. Since the execution time of this parallel combination is greatly influenced by the number k of the smallest odd primes used in the trial division, it is important to determine the optimal k to create the fastest parallel combination. We present probabilistic analysis to determine the optimal k and to estimate the expected running time for the parallel combination. Our analysis is conducted in two stages. First, we roughly narrow the range of optimal k by using the expected values for the random variables used in the analysis. Second, we precisely determine the optimal k by using the exact probability distribution of the random variables. Our experiments show that the optimal k and the expected running time determined by our analysis are precise and accurate. Furthermore, we generalize our analysis and propose a guideline for a designer of a hardware prime generator to determine the optimal k by simply calculating the ratio of M to D, where M and D are the measured running times of a modular multiplication and an integer division, respectively.

본 논문에서는 pHEMT의 게이트 전압을 제어하여 저 위상잡음과 고 안정 특성을 나타내는 Ku-band위상 동기유전체공진 발진기를 설계하였다. 발진기를 설계에서 위상잡음에 영향을 주는 P-HEMT의 비선형소자를 선정하고 게이트 전압에 따라 최소 위상잡음을 나타내도록 최적화 시켰으며 바이어스에 따른 산란계수를 이용하여 전압제어 마이크로파 발진기를 설계한 후 안정특성을 위하여 위상동기회로를 적용하였다. 디지털마이크로파 통신시스템에 이용되는 10.75GHz의 주파수에서 동작되는 고안정 위상동기발진기는 전치분주기 형태로 제작하였으며 설계된 마이크로파 발진기는 9.17dBm 출력전력과 -88 dBc/Hz @10KHz의 위상잡음 특성을 나타내었다.

Low-temperature polysilicon (LTPS) technology has continued to mature with the passing of each year since LTPS mass production began. The integration of complex circuits has become possible with advances in microprocessing, leading to the realization of panels with highly advanced functions. At the same time, efforts have been made to meet market demands for lower costs, thereby boosting competitive strength. Today, LTPS-TFT LCDs have become standard equipment for the monitors of digital still cameras, and inroads are being made into the massive cellular phone market. Micro displays such as electronic viewfinders, which were previously only possible with high-temperature polysilicon technology, can now also be made with LTPS, thus expanding the scope of the technology. AMOLED displays using the LTPS-TFT as a back plane are also approaching the stage of industrialization. The hidden potential for the OLED to replace the familiar LCD has prompted Widespread anticipation for this emerging technology. This paper reflects on the history of LTPS technology, then looks forward to its future prospects and suggests a variety of potential fields of application.

In this paper a K-band harmonic oscillator competitive to ordinary Push-Push type oscillators is introduced. This oscillator is composed of two-X-band dielectric resonance circuits. To favor its harmonic generation, the load effect and the bias effect are studied to allow the maximum harmonic distortion. As results, the dielectric resonated load and the class A bias are used for the 2nd harmonic generation. analytical study for modelling of voltage controlled dielectric resonator is carried out with theoretical background. The performance of the circuit is evaluated by simulation using harmonic balanced method. The novel structure has ont only a voltage tuning circuit but also an output port at fundamental frequency as the function of prescaler for phase lockede loop application on the just single oscillation structure. In experimentation, the output freqneyc of the 2nd harmonic signal is 20.5GHz and the maximum power level of output is +5.5dBm without additional post amplifiers. the harmonic oscillator exhibits -30dBc of high fundamental frequency rejection without added extra filters. The phase noise of -90dBc/Hz at 100kHz off-carrier has been achieved under free running condition, that satisfies phase noise requirement of IESS 308. The proposed oscillator may be utilized as the clean and stable fixed local oscillator in Transmit Block Upconvertor(TBU) or Low oise Block downconvertor(LNB) for K/Ka-band digital communications and satellite broadcastings.

Wearable and ubiquitous micro systems will be greatly growing and their related devices should be self-powered in order to avoid the replacement of finite power sources, for example, by scavenging energy from the environment. With ever reducing power requirements of both analog and digital circuits, power scavenging approaches are becoming increasingly realistic. One approach is to drive an electromechanical converter from ambient motion or vibration. Vibration-driven generators based on electromagnetic, electrostatic and piezoelectric technologies have been demonstrated. Among various generator types proposed so far, piezoelectric generator possesses considerable potential in micro system. To overcome low mechanical-to-electric energy conversion, the piezoelectric device should activate in resonance mode in response to external vibration. Normally, the external vibration excretes at low frequency ranging 0.1 to 200 Hz, whereas the resonant frequencies of the devices are fixed as constant. Therefore, keeping their resonant mode in varying external vibration can be one of important points in enhancing the conversion efficiency. We investigated the possibility of use of multi-bender type piezoelectric devices. To match the external vibration frequency with the device resonant frequency, the various devices with different resonant frequency were chosen.

Flexible tactile sensors can provide valuable feedback to intelligent robots about the environment. This is especially important when the robots, e.g., service robots, are sharing the workspace with human. This paper presents a flexible tactile sensor that was manufactured by direct writing technique, which is one of 3D printing method with multi-walled carbon nano-tubes. The signal processing system consists of two parts: analog circuits to amplify and filter the sensor output and digital signal processing algorithms to reduce undesired noise. Finally, experimental setup is implemented and evaluated to identify the characteristics of the flexible tactile sensor system. This paper showed that this type of sensors can detect the initiation and termination of contacts with appropriate signal processing.
