In this paper, we designed the electronic ballast for the 400[W] hight pressure sodium lamp using the half-bridge inverter Inductance and capacitance in the proposed equivalent LC series resonant circuit are calculated theoretically. We performed the simulation of the LC series half-bridge inverter circuit using the IsSPICE and the electronic ballast for the high pressure sodium lamp were implemented for verifing the simulation results. In the experimental results, the specification of the implemented electronic ballast are almost same with the simulated one. The experimental results show the good performance as PF 99.3[%], $A_{THD}$ 10.01[%], lamp efficiency 119[lm/W] at the output 400[W].].

It is very important to improve qualify, cost and the necessary period for production in software development project. In order to improve software quality, cost and period, final product as well as a project planning and process itself are concerned. In CMMI of SEI and ISO/IEC 15504 (SPICE), the process for the project management is specified. Recently, as a method of total management - including man power, budget, and schedule - PMBOK is introduced. The detailed and specific management method in PMBOK results in multiple experiments that apply PMBOK to enterprise environment. In this paper, hybrid method of CMMI and PMBOK is proposed to obey CMMI, at the same time, to apply the detailed and specific management method in PMBOK and develop metrics for the method.

Using transmission-line equivalent circuit based on cross-field model for an interdigital acoustic wave transducer, an efficient simulation technique of SAW filters by SPICE is proposed. Propagation of surface acoustic wave is modeled as transmission line so that frequency-dependent circuit elements are not needed in the equivalent circuit of an interdigital transducer. Because the equivalent circuits for frequency-dependent circuit elements are not derived approximately, and a small number of circuit elements are used in the equivalent circuit for filters, simulation time is much reduced. The utility of the proposed technique is demonstrated through simulation for the characteristics of SAW filters such as insertion loss, input admittance, passband ripple, and harmonic frequency response.

Cramped resonant DC link inverter is analyzed by widely available software such as SPICE. In this paper, the model of ACRDCL which is based on converter switch function rather than actual circuit configuration is used. Power circuit is modeled by functional transfer function and the controller is based on the macro-model. Computer memory and runtime are based reduced compared to micro-model. Overall performance including control strategy and harmonic characteristics in the steady state can be analyzed easily.

This paper proposes a PCB plane model for generic SPICE circuit simulators. The proposed model reflects two frequency-dependent losses, namely skin and dielectric losses. After power/ground plane pair is divided into arrays of unit-cells, each unit-cell is modeled using a transmission line and two loss models. The loss model is composed of a resistor for DC loss, series HL ladder circuit for skin loss and series RC ladder circuit for dielectric loss. To verify the validity of the proposed model, it is compared with SPICE ac analysis using frequency-dependent resistors. Also, we show that the estimation results using the proposed model have a good correlation with that of VNA measurement for the typical PCB stack-up structure of general desktop PCs. With the proposed model, not only ac analysis but also transient analysis can be easily done for circuits including various non-linear/linear devices since the model consists of passive elements onl.

Headspace micro solid phase extraction using mulberry paper bag (HS-MPB-$\mu$-SPE) has been developed and validated for the analysis of volatile flavor compounds from five spice by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS). HS-MPB-$\mu$-SPE was performed with adsorbent particles enclosed inside a mulberry paper bag. Four different kinds of adsorbents such as Tenax TA, Porapack Q, dimethylpolysiloxane and polyethylene glycol were tested. The extraction solvents compared were petroleum ether, methylene chloride, and chloroform. Better results were obtained when Tenax TA and petroleum ether were used. The limit of detection (LOD) and the limit of quantitation (LOQ) were in the range of 1.3 ng/mL and 4.3 ng/mL, respectively, for o-cymene as a model compound of monoterpene. Proposed method showed good reproducibility (3.3%, RSD) and good recoveries (94.0%). The HS-MPB- μ-SPE is very simple to use, inexpensive, rapid, requires small sample amounts and solvent consumption. Because the solvent for extraction is reduced to only a very small volume (0.6 mL), there is minimal waste or exposure to toxic organic solvent and no further concentration step. This method allows successful characterization of the headspace in contact with the five spice sample. Strong trans-anethole from star anise or fennel is a characteristic flavor of five spice powders. HS-MPB-$\mu$-SPE combined with GC/MS can be a promising technique for the broad spectrum measurement of volatile aroma compounds from solid spices.

Using accurate MOSFET substrate parameters obtained by a RF direct extraction method, it is demonstrated that a BSIM4 model with only substrate resistances is not physically valid to apply in the wide range of gate length because of scaling inaccuracy. In order to remove the unphysical problem of the BSIM4, a modified BSIM4 model with additional dielectric substrate capacitance is used and its physical validity is verified by observing excellent gate length scalability.

A dynamic analysis of an amorphous silicon (a-Si) thin film transistor liquid crystal display (TFT-LCD) pixel is presented using new a-Si TFT and liquid crystal (LC) capacitance models for a Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE) simulator. This dynamic analysis will be useful when predicting the performance of LCDs. The a-Si TFT model is developed to accurately estimate a-Si TFT characteristics of a bias-dependent gate to source and gate to drain capacitance. Moreover, the LC capacitance model is developed using a simplified diode circuit model. It is possible to accurately predict TFT-LCD characteristics such as flicker phenomena when implementing the proposed simulation model.

To develope Hanbang beef jerky as health food, six kinds of beef jerky were prepared by adding sugar (A), licorice (B) and three kinds of spice extracts (clove: C, fennel fruit: D and Chungyang green pepper extract: E) and mixture of all extracts (F). The effects of the drying method and added spice extracts on the quality characteristics of the beef jerky were evaluated. In general, the air-blast dried beef jerky contained $31{\sim}33%$ moisture, $50.0{\sim}51.2%$ crude protein, $7.2{\sim}7.8%$ crude lipid and $3.0{\sim}3.3%$ crude ash. For the mineral content of the air-blast dried jerky, the most prevalent mineral was Na $(1540.08{\sim}1838.17$ mg%), followed by K, P, Mg, and Ca. The Ca content of the beef jerky was highest in the mixed extract group (88.53 mg%), and the lowest content was in sugar-added group (53.12 mg%). For the color properties, the L-value (lightness), a-value (redness) and b-value (yellowness) were higher in the air-blast dried beef jerky than in the hot air dried samples. The drying methods showed their greatest affect on the redness (a) for all six jerkies (p<0.001). For the preference by sensory evaluation, the beef jerky samples with added sugar (A) and licorice extract (B) had significantly higher scores than the beef jerky samples with the added spice extracts, for both of air-blast drying and hot air drying (p<0.05). Preference for the air-blast dried beef jerkies with added clove (C) and fennel fruits (D) were significantly higher, in terms of taste, color, softness and aftertaste as compared to the respective hot air dried jerkies (p<0.01). Considering all the obtained results, we concluded that licorice and spice extracts can be used as natural preservatives in the development of health foods and the air-blast drying method is recommended to improve the quality characteristics of beef jerky.
