A screw driver is widely used in assembling machine parts or electronic products such as the printed circuit board with a housing. As the parts to be assembled becomes small and precise, the higher precision of the controlling screw driver torque is required. However, because the operator controls the fastening torque based on experience, it must be inexact and the setting procedure will be time consuming job. Thus the screw driver which can exactly control the fastening torque is developed utilizing a bellows in this paper. The bellows is expanded by the inner air pressure and contracted by the spring operation. The bellows type driver is composed of a clutch mechanism with two solenoid valves and a pressure sensor. Those valves are controlled using the detected bellows pressure by the sensor. When the pressure reaches the setting value, the exit solenoid valve is opened to release the air pressure from the bellows so as not to deliver further torque. Through a series of experiments, the performance is examined and verified.

In this paper. we propose an architecture of IEEE1394 device driver for RTLinux. The device driver has two interfaces for applications running on the RTLinux kernel and Linux kernel. With the interfaces, the device driver simultaneously supports RT-Thread of RTLinux kernel and user level process of Linux kernel. This architecture could be a reference for designing other device driver on the dual kernel platform.

This paper reports the aging driver traffic accident severity modeling results. For the modeling, Poisson regression approach is applied using the data set obtained from the Korea Transportation Safety Authority's simulator-based driver aptitude test results. The test items include the estimations of moving objects' speed and stopping distance, drivers' multi-task capability, and kinetic depth perception and so on. The resulting model with the response variable of equivalent property damage only(EPDO) indicated that EPDO is significantly influenced by moving objects' speed estimation and drivers' multi-task capabilities. More interestingly, a comparison with the younger driver model revealed that the degradation of such capabilities may result in severer crashes for older drivers as suggested by the higher estimated parameters for the older driver model.

In this paper, we propose a current-driven synchronous rectifier driver circuit for LLC resonant half-bridge converters. The proposed driver circuit detects a relatively low current in the primary side of the transformer although a large current is flowing in the secondary side. Due to this feature, the driver circuit has a simple circuit structure and stabilizes the switching operation with a logic-level switching voltages for the synchronous rectifier. The operation and performance of the proposed driver circuit are confirmed with a prototype of 1kW class LLC resonant half-bridge converter. The experimental results proved that the proposed synchronous rectifier driver method improves the power conversion efficiency by around 1% and reduces the internal power loss by 17W.

In this paper, development of laser diode driver with 2.5kW rating is presented. The driver is configured with interleaved PFC converter, high frequency full bridge DC-DC converter, two laser diode drivers and ${\mu}$-processor based controller. The system has two laser diode drivers for providing high current and low current. High current driver delivers normal output power of diode; low current driver is for providing critical current of diode for long lifetime. Computer simulation and experiment was performed for verification, as the results, developed driver performs well.

This paper discusses Gate-driver circuit for improved switching characteristics. This resonant gate-driver recycles the energy stored in the gate capacitance to reduce the turn-off switching loss associated with a conventional gate-driver. Reducing the loss reduces the power consumption and hence the subsequent power dissipation in the resonant gate-driver. The design considerations of implementing a practical MOSFET gate-driver using this topology are discussed.

The vibration reduction process for the driver comfort of a forklift truck is studied in this study since the related driver comfort is a primary design target in the vehicle design recently. However, the underlying study for a vibration analysis regarding to the driver comfort is still an element stage. Thus, a preceding large work has to be needed to apply the CAE technology for the detail vehicle design, and it prevents the vehicle optimal design. To reduce the proceeding large works, the evaluated process and required data are comply with the accumulated trouble shooting experiences in this study. Since the driver comfort is a human related problem, the human vibration index associated with analysis vibration result is additionally introduced as a driver comfort judgement value.

Large-size, organic light-emitting device (OLED) panels based on highly reliable gate driver circuits integrated using InGaZnO thin film transistors (TFTs) were developed to achieve ultra-high resolution TVs. These large-size OLED panels were driven by using a novel gate driver circuit not only for displaying images but also for sensing TFT characteristics for external compensation. Regardless of the negative threshold voltage of the TFTs, the proposed gate driver circuit in OLED panels functioned precisely, resulting from a decrease in the leakage current. The falling time of the circuit is approximately 0.9 ㎲, which is fast enough to drive 8K resolution OLED displays at 120 Hz. 120 Hz is most commonly used as the operating voltage because images consisting of 120 frames per second can be quickly shown on the display panel without any image sticking. The reliability tests showed that the lifetime of the proposed integrated gate driver is at least 100,000 h.

PE(Passive Entry) is an automotive technology which allows a driver to lock and unlock door of vehicle without using smart key buttons personally. PG(Pssive Go) is an automotive technology which offers the ability to start and stop the engine when there is a driver in vehicle with smart key. When these two functions are unified, we call it PEG(Passive Entry/Go). LF(Low Frequency) antenna driver which is one of core technologies in PEG is composed of a digital part which processes commands and an analog part which generates sine waveform. The digital part of antenna driver receives commands from MCU(or ECU), and processes requested commands by MCU, and stores antenna-related driver commands and data on an internal FIFO block. The digital part takes corresponding actions for commands read from FIFO and then transfers modulated LF data to analog part. The analog part generates sine waveform and transmits outside through antenna. The designed digital part for LF antenna driver can acomplish faster LF data transmission than that of conventional product. LF antenna driver can be applicable to the areas such as PEG for automotive and gate opening and closing of building.

The Fabric Electrode was proposed for the effective production of the display based on electrowetting in this paper and designed the source driver of flexible display which could be driven by the electrowetting cell. The electrowetting cell matrix was implemented on the substrate(PET) by imprinting. The driver fabric, wetting electrode fabric and conductive fabric was placed horizontally and vertically in the groove between cell matrix and the electrowetting cell matrix can be driven by the cross-point as electric connection. The integration density of driver module is decreased because using the R/2R DAC module per channel in the conventional method. The proposed method could utilize the effective production process and reduce the production price of a display panel. The source driver which consume lower power and can increase the integration density because of reducing the number of driver device per channel was designed and evaluate the driver operation by the simulation using the VHDL programming in this paper.
