The bulk current injection (BCI) and direct power injection (DPI) method have been established as the standards for the electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) test. Because the BCI test uses a probe to inject magnetically coupled electromagnetic (EM) noise, there is a significant difference between the power supplied by the radio frequency (RF) generator and that transferred to the integrated circuit (IC). Thus, the immunity estimated by the forward power cannot show the susceptibility of the IC itself. This paper derives the real injected power at the failure point of the IC using the power transfer efficiency of the BCI method. We propose and mathematically derive the power transfer efficiency based on equivalent circuit models representing the BCI test setup. The BCI test is performed on I/O buffers with and without decoupling capacitors, and their immunities are evaluated based on the traditional forward power and the real injected power proposed in this work. The real injected power shows the actual noise power level that the IC can tolerate. Using the real injected power as an indicator for the EMS test, we show that the on-chip decoupling capacitor enhances the EM noise immunity.

An equivalent model has been developed to estimate the electromagnetic immunity for integrated circuits under a complex electromagnetic environment. The complete model is based on the characteristics of the equipment and physical configuration of the device under test (DUT) and describes the measurement setup as well as the target integrated circuits under test, the corresponding package, and a specially designed printed circuit board. The advantage of the proposed model is that it can be applied to a SPICE-like simulator and the immunity of the integrated circuits can be easily achieved without costly and time-consuming measurements. After simulation, measurements were performed to verify the accuracy of the equivalent model for immunity prediction. The improvement of measurement accuracy due to the added effect of a bi-directional coupler in the test setup is also addressed.

무선기기의 간헐적인 신호 또는 높고 낮은 진폭의 주기적인 신호 전송은 오디오 주파수에 간섭 신호를 발생시켜 근접 거리에 설치된 음향 기기에 잡음을 발생시킨다. 최근 이와 관련하여 Global system for Mobile Communication(GSM) 폰과 유사하게 간헐적인 신호 전송을 하는 Long Term Evolution(LTE) 폰에 의한 오디오 잡음현상이 보고되었다. 현재 국내 KN20 규격에서는 잡음에 대한 내성 능력을 확보하기 위하여 음향 및 TV 방송수신기의 내성 시험 기준 신호로 변조 주파수 1 kHz Amplitude Modulation(AM) 80 %와 Code Division Multiple Access(CDMA) 신호를 이용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 LTE 폰의 출시에 따라 기존의 내성 기준 신호 AM과 CDMA를 GSM과 LTE 폰이 발생시키는 오디오 잡음의 수준과 비교한 후, 국내 음향 기기에 대한 내성 기준 신호의 개선을 제안한다. CDMA 신호는 음향 기기에 간섭을 거의 일으키지 않는 것으로 여겨지므로 시험 항목에서 삭제해도 무방할 것으로 판단된다. 반면, LTE는 많은 사용자가 이용하고 있으며, 음향 기기 등에 무시할 수 없는 간섭을 발생시킬 것으로 분석되므로 CDMA 신호를 대신하여 음향 기기 및 TV 방송 수신기의 내성 시험을 위한 시험 기준 신호로 규정하는 것이 바람직할 것으로 사료된다.

The immunity testing in this study was performed to examine the conducted immunity and radiated immunity in medical instrumentation. Experiments were performed to assess the conducted emission and radiated emission of medical instrumentation such as MRI, ultrasound system, and electro surgical unit etc. The emission testing revolves around conducted emissions (high-frequency currents) on power lines and signal cables. Emission testing also looks at the output of energy through the air (called radiated emissions) and analyzes the strength of those radio-frequency signals generated unintentionally by the electrical medical device that is under test. Finally, this study would provide significant data for furture research or electromagnetic interference and compatibility test in medical instrumentation.

Electrostatic discharge(ESD) phenomenon is a serious reliability concern. It causes approximately most of all field failures of IC. To quality the ESD immunity of IC product, there are some test methods and standards developed. ESD events have been classified into 3 models, which are HBM, MM and CDM. All the test methods are designed to evaluate the ESD immunity of IC products. This study provides an overview among ESD test methods on ICs and an efficient ESD stress method. We have estimated on all pin combination about the positive and negative ESD stress. We make out the weakest stress mode. This mode called a worst-case mode. We proposed that positive supply voltage pin and I/O pin combination is efficient because it is a worst-case mode.

슈미트 트리거 로직(Schmitt Trigger Logic)은 디지털 회로의 노이즈에 대한 내성을 향상시키기 위해 히스테리시스 특성을 보이는 게이트를 제안한 설계 방법이다. 슈미트 트리거 특성을 보이는 설계 방법 중 최근에 제안된 substrate bias를 조정하여 구현하는 Dynamic Threshold voltage MOS(DTMOS) 방법을 사용할 경우, 게이트 수를 늘이지 않고 내성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 설계방법이나, 범용 CMOS 공정에서 구현하여 시뮬레이션으로 예상하는 성능을 얻을 수 있는지는 검증되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS 공정에서 DTMOS 설계 방법을 구현하여 히스테리시스 특성을 측정하여 검증하였다. DTMOS 슈미트 트리거 버퍼, 인버터, 낸드, 노어 게이트 및 간단한 디지털 로직 회로를 제작하였으며, 히스테리시스 특성, 전력 소모, 딜레이 등의 특성들을 관찰하고, 일반적인 CMOS 게이트로 구현된 회로와 비교하였다. 노이즈에 대한 내성이 향상되는 것을 Direct Power Injection(DPI) 실험을 통해 확인하였다. 본 논문을 통해 제작된 DTMOS 슈미트 트리거 로직은 10 M~1 GHz 영역에서 전자파 내성이 향상된 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Electricity meters using in Korea are about 1.8 million units. From among these, electronic meters for high voltage, about 170 thousand units were installed to the digital type meter and ones for low voltage installed hundreds of thou-sands of meters through a model project. Recently, low voltage meter are expected to complete the installation within several years. Domestic power metering technology is being beyond a simple framework with an electronic type and is rapidly evolving to intelligent smart metering systems in conjunction with promotion of a national smart grid project. Accordingly, it is important to ensure an immunity of meter for electromagnetic field and environmental noise at the installation site. In this paper, we are going to check the validity of international standard that focusing on RF electromagnetic field immunity of meter to secure the quality and improve the reliability in field operation of meter. And we will verify the validity of test specification focused on actual installation environment and are going to offer the improvement plan of test standard.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to verify the effect of aromatherapy hand massage on stress responses and serum Immunity of RN's before the night duty. Method: The data were collected during the period from Oct. 10 to Nov. 15, 2005 at S-Hospital in Seoul. There were forty-eight subjects, 24 for the experimental and 24 for the control group. A Pre & post test were conducted to measure pulse rate, perceived stress(level and score) and a blood sample for cortisol and IgA. In the experimental group, lavender and geranium were used. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics, $x^2$-test and t-test with SPSS program. Result: The pulse rate was reduced but there were no significant differences between the two groups. Scores of subjective stress(VAS) decreased significantly after aromatherapy hand massage and the level of serum Cortisol was reduced significantly. The level of serum IgA was elevated significantly. Conclusion: Aromatherapy hand massage could be a useful intervention to reduce stress and elevate the immunity of nurses during the night duty.
