In this study, we introduce a polymer(polyimide) based pressure sensor to measure real-time heart beat and blood pressure. The sensor have been designed with consideration of skin compatibility of material, cost effectiveness, manufacturability and wireless detection. The designed sensor was composed of inductor coils and an air-gap capacitor which generate self-resonant frequency when electrical source is applied on the system. The sensor was obtained with metalization, etching, photolithography, polymer adhesive bonding and laser cutting. The fabricated sensor was shaped in circular type with 10mm diameter and 0.45 mm thickness to fit radial artery. Resonant frequencies of the fabricated sensors were in the range of 91~96 MHz on 760 mmHg pressurized environment. Also the sensor has good linearity without any pressure-frequency hysteresis. Sensitivity of the sensor was 145.5 kHz/mmHg and accuracy was less than 2 mmHg. Real-time heart beat measurement was executed with a developed hand-held measurement system. Possibility of real-time blood pressure measurement was showed with simulated artery system. After installation of the sensor on skin above radial artery, simple real blood pressure measurement was performed with 64 mmHg blood pressure variation.

This paper describes design, fabrication, and performance of an ultra-high-speed and low-noise MMIC (Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit) preamplifier for a 10 Gb/s optical receiver. The transimpedance type 3-stage MMIC preamplifier for ultra-high-speed and low-noise was designed using an AlGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs P-HEMTs(Pseudomorphic High Electron Mobility Transistors) with 0.15${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ length T-shaped gate. To obtain broadband characteristics, we used the inductor peaking technique, and the gate width was optimized for low noise performance. Measurements reveal that the fabricated preamplifier has the high transimpedance gain of 60 ㏈Ω and 9.15 ㎓ bandwidth with the noise figure of less than 3.9 ㏈.

An efficient fast response hysteretic buck converter suitable for mobile application is propoesed. The problems of large output ripple and difficulty in using of small power inductor that conventional hysteretic converter has are improved by adding ramp generator. and the changeable switching frequency with load current is fixed by adding a delay time control circuit composed of PLL structure resulting in decrease of EMI noise. The circuits are implemented by using BCDMOS 0.35um 2-polt 4-metal process. Measurement results show that the converter operates with a switching frequency of 1.85MHz when drives 80mA load current. As the converter drives over 170mA load current, the switching frequency is fixed on 2MHz. The converter has output ripple voltage of less 20mV and more than efficiency 85% with 50~500mA laod current condition.

In this paper, the Interleaved AC/DC boost converter using two inductor with voltage-doubler characteristic when it operates with a duty cycle greater than 0.5 is proposed. Generally, the low-line(Input AC 110[V]) operation of the AC/DC boost converter is much less efficient than high-line (Input AC 220[V]) operation. The proposed Interleaved AC/DC boost converter operates as a voltage doubler at low-line. Its low-line range have higher power factor and improved efficiency compared with that of conventional converter. This research proposed the Interleaved AC/DC boost converter for voltage-doubler characteristic. The principle of operation, feature and design considerations is illustrated and the validity of verified through the experiment with a 300[W] based experimental circuit.

Recently, the use of transformer-less UPS has increased to improve the efficiency of UPS. However, transformer-less UPS is required in three-phase four-wire input IGBT PWM rectifier and the existing three-phase three-wire PFC algorithm cannot be applied in the three-phase four-wire system due to the neutral current problem of UPS input. To control the three-phase four-wire input IGBT PWM rectifier, there are two existing algorithms: 3D SVM and single phase control method. These two algorithms have advantages/disadvantages in controlling the rectifier. The single phase control method is unstable for controlling the rectifier and the 3D SVM method has a problem that must increase the L value of the input-side inductor considerably. Therefore, this paper proposes digital single phase control technology and another new algorithm considering the d-q control, to improve the characteristics of the existing control algorithm. In addition, this paper performed a simulation and experiment based on the proposed control algorithm. The simulation results showed that the proposed technology can control three-phase four-wire IGBT PWM rectifier in a stable manner and can also reduce the neutral current. The proposed algorithm is a useful tool for controlling the three-phase four-wire IGBT PWM rectifier.

This paper presents a wideband doubly balanced resistive mixer fabricated using $0.5{\mu}m$ GaAs p-HEMT process. Three baluns are employed in the mixer. LO and RF baluns operating over an 8 to 20 GHz range were implemented with Marchand baluns. In order to reduce chip size, the Marchand baluns were realized by the meandering multicoupled line and inductor lines were inserted to compensate for the meandering effect. IF balun was implemented through a DC-coupled differential amplifier. The size of IF balun is $0.3{\times}0.5\;mm^2$ and the measured amplitude and phase unbalances were less than 1 dB and $5^{\circ}$, respectively from DC to 7 GHz. The mixer is $1.7{\times}1.8\;mm^2$ in size, has a conversion loss of 5 to 11 dB, and an output third order intercept(OIP3) of +10 to +15 dBm at 16 dBm LO power for the operating bandwidth.

In this paper, a compact RF Front-end module for Wireless Fidelity(Wi-Fi) and Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access(WiMAX) applications is realized by low temperature co-fired ceramic(LTCC) technology. The RF Front-end module is composed of three LTCC band-pass filters, a Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator(FBAR) filter, fully embedded matching circuits, an SPDT switch for mode selection, an SPDT switch for Tx/Rx selection, and an SP4T switch for band selection. The parasitic elements of 0.2~0.3 pF are generated by the structure of stacking in the top pad pattern for DC block capacitor of SPDT switch for mode selection. These kinds of parasitic elements break the matching characteristic, and thus, the overall electrical performance of the module is degraded. In order to compensate it, we insert a parallel lumped-element inductor on capacitor pad pattern for DC block, so that we obtain the optimized performance of the RF Front-end module. The fabricated RF front-end module has 12 layers including three inner grounds and it occupies less than $6.0mm{\times}6.0mm{\times}0.728mm$.
