For commercialized servo drives of the motion stage to include embedded controller, external terminal is provided for tracking command and encoder output, but internal terminal is not for control input. Thus, it is difficult to combine out signal of embedded controller with that of external compensator such as disturbance observer. In this study, for precise tracking control of motion stage without hardware change of the servo drive, tacking control system is composed of an inner loop of servo drive and an outer loop of disturbance observer. Then, the control system is designed so that the output response of actual plant corresponds with nominal model's in transient state as well as in steady state. Finally, the experiment results show that the designed control system is effective to reconcile actual plant behavior with nominal model under nonlinear friction and parameter perturbation.

A high power and high gain Doherty amplifier is designed by using embedded driver amplifiers in the final stage. The operational characteristics of a two-stage Doherty amplifier are analyzed, as a function of the two-stage peaking amplifier gate biases. The driver stages and final output stages are implemented using two single-ended MRF21045s and a single push-pull packaged MRF5P21180, respectively. This two-stage Doherty amplifier demonstrated 27 dB gain with a PAE of 23 % at 15 W average output power.
