본 연구에서는 옥내 조명 설비의 전원을 ON/OFF 하기 위해 사용되는 저압용 스위치의 구조 및 발열 메커니즘을 제시하고, 에너지원의 종류에 따라 스위치의 고정금구 및 가동 접점 등의 소손패턴을 제시함으로써 향후 예상되는 PL 분쟁의 판단 근거를 확보하는데 있다. 스위치에 인가된 일반 화염은 한국산업규격(KS)의 난연성 시험 방법을 적용하였다. 또한 스위치에 공급된 전류는 대전류공급장치(PCITS)를 이용하였다. 실험이 진행될 때 주위의 온도는 $22{\pm}2^{\circ}C$, 습도는 40~60%를 유지시켰다. 스위치의 발열은 배선과 클립의 접속 불량, 가동 접점의 절연 열화 및 접촉 불량 등에 의해서 생성되는 것으로 판단된다. 일반 화염에 의해 소손된 스위치는 표면이 균일하게 탄화되었으며, 화원을 제거하면 자연 소화되었다. 일반화염에 의해 탄화된 스위치를 분해한 결과 고정금구 및 가동 접점 등은 비교적 양호한 형태를 보였으나 외함, 클립 지지대, 가동 접점, 표시램프 등에서 탄화 및 변색을 확인할 수 있었다. 과전류에 의해 소손된 스위치는 배선을 연결하는 클립 및 클립 지지대 등은 소손의 흔적이 거의 없으나 고정금구, 가동 접점, 표시 램프 등은 심하게 탄화되었다. 즉 접촉 저항이 큰 부분에서 집중적으로 소손되었고 내부에서 외부로 탄화가 진행되는 패턴을 나타냈다. 따라서 소손된 스위치의 탄화 패턴 및 금속 금구류의 특성을 분석하면 최초의 에너지원 판정이 가능하다.

A high-step-up DC/DC converter for renewable energy systems is proposed. The proposed structure provides high voltage gain by using a coupled inductor without the need for high duty cycles and high turn ratios. The voltage gain is increased through capacitor-charging techniques. In the proposed converter, the energy of the leakage inductors of the coupled inductor is reused. This feature reduces the stress on the switch. Therefore, a switch with low ON-state resistance can be used in the proposed converter to reduce losses and increase efficiency. The main switch is placed in series with the source. Therefore, the converter can control the energy flow from the source to the load. The operating principle is discussed in detail, and a steady state analysis of the proposed converter is conducted. The performance of the proposed converter is verified by experimental results.

This paper presents the equivalent circuit modelling and eigenfrequency analysis of a wideband robust capacitive radio frequency (RF) microelectromechanical system (MEMS) switch that was designed using Poly-Si and Au layer membrane for highly reliable switching operation. The circuit characterization includes the extraction of resistance, inductance, on and off state capacitance, and Q-factor. The first six eigenfrequencies are analyzed using a finite element modeler, and the equivalent modes are demonstrated. The switch is optimized for millimeter wave frequencies, which indicate excellent RF performance with isolation of more than 55 dB and a low insertion loss of 0.1 dB in the V-band. The designed switch actuates at 13.2 V. The R, L, C and Q-factor are simulated using Y-matrix data over a frequency sweep of 20-100 GHz. The proposed switch has various applications in satellite communication networks and can also be used for devices that will incorporate the upcoming IEEE Wi-Fi 802.11ad protocol.

Resistance switching memory cells were fabricated using atomically dispersed Pt-$SiO_2$ thin film prepared via RF co-sputtering. The memory cell can switch between a low-resistance-state and a high-resistance-state reversibly and reproducibly through applying alternate voltage polarities. Percolated conducting paths are the origin of the low-resistance-state, while trapping electrons in the negative U-center in the Pt-$SiO_2$ interface cause the high-resistance-state. Intermediate resistance-states are obtained through controlling the compliance current, which can be applied to multi-level operation for high memory density. It is found that the resistance value is related to the capacitance of the memory cell: a 265-fold increase in resistance induces a 2.68-fold increase in capacitance. The exponential growth model of the conducting paths can explain the quantitative relationship of resistance-capacitance. The model states that the conducting path generated in the early stage requires a larger area than that generated in the last stage, which results in a larger decrease in the capacitance.

An induction heating (IH) resonant converter, as well as its coil design method, is proposed in this study to improve the heat capability of low- and high-resistance IH vessels. Conventional IH resonant converters have been designed only for heating high-resistance containers designed for IH application. Thus, the primary current in the resonant tank becomes extremely high to transfer the rated power when the converter heats the low-resistance vessel. As a result, the rated power cannot be transferred due to overcurrent flows against the rated switch current. Hence, the optimal number of coil turns and proper operating frequency to heat high- and low-resistance vessels are proposed in this study by analyzing an IH load model. Simulation and experimental results using a 2.4 kW prototype resonant converter and its IH coil validate the proposed design.

Purpose - In recent times, the international trade environment has been changing rapidly, centering on the online market. In the post-COVID-19 era, small and medium-sized trading companies are facing the problem of not being properly provided with overseas market research, market trend analysis, and trade-related information. Cloud-based digital trade is being sought as an alternative to solve these problems; however, there is a lack of research on the intention to switch to digital trade among small and medium-sized trading companies. Therefore, this study empirically analyzes the intention to switch to digital trade based on the migration theory, and through this, attempts to identify each factor that affects the intention to switch to digital trade. Design/methodology - In this study, in order to identify factors influencing intention to switch to digital trade and innovation resistance of small and medium-sized trading companies, through previous research on migration theory and the PPM (Push, Pull, Mooring) model, each variable was selected for the purpose of the study. Based on this, a research model was established for the factors affecting switching to digital trade of small and medium-sized trading companies and empirically analyzed. In addition, considering the differences in the innovation propensity and maturity of information infrastructure of trading companies as the recipients of innovation, this study analyzes the moderating effect of the mooring effect and seeks ways to establish specific strategies according to the degree. Findings - As a result of empirical analysis, the pull effect was found to have the greatest influence on intention to switch to digital trade. However, the pull factor was found to have an effect on user resistance, and it was confirmed that it was a factor simultaneously inducing positive and negative consumption behaviors among users. In addition, it was found that the higher the company's innovation propensity, the higher the pull effect's influence on the intention to switch, and analysis showed that the push effect had no influence. In addition, companies with high information infrastructure maturity were expected to have a relatively high level of intention to switch compared to companies with low information infrastructure maturity, and the difference between the two groups was found not to be statistically significant. Originality/value - This study is a timely study in that it demonstrated the effect on the switching to cloud-based digital trade for small and medium-sized trading companies and that the cloud system related to digital trade is in full swing. There are academic implications in that it revealed that the pull effect is an important factor in the intention to switch to cloud service. Practical implications were presented in that small and medium-sized trading companies suggested ways to increase the value of the cloud system for switching to digital trade and a way to increase the switching ratio by minimizing the mooring effect. In addition, the study argues that active institutional support from the government is needed to activate cloud service.

This study proposes an improved cell balancing circuit for fast equalization among lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. A simple voltage sensorless charge balancing circuit has been proposed in the past. This cell balancing circuit automatically transfers energy from high-to low-voltage battery cells. However, the circuit requires a switch with low on-resistance because the balancing speed is limited by the on-resistance of the switch. Balancing speed decreases as the voltage difference among the battery cells decrease. In this study, the balancing speed of the cell balancing circuit is enhanced by using the auxiliary circuit, which boosts the balancing current. The charging current is determined by the nominal battery cell voltage and thus, the balancing speed is almost constant despite the very small voltage differences among the batteries. Simulation results are provided to verify the validity of the proposed cell balancing circuit.

본 연구에서는 임계온도스위치를 이용하여 저전력 단독경보형 정온식 감지기를 개발하였다. 임계온도스위치는 70 ℃에서 저항이 급격하게 감소하는 특성을 나타내는 소자로, 금속-절연체 전이 현상을 이용함으로써 온도 측정에 대한 높은 신뢰성을 보장한다. 또한 임계온도스위치의 금속에서 절연체로 변하는 디지털적인 특성을 이용하여 마이크로컨트롤러 사용 없이 화재를 감지함으로써 단독경보형 정온식 감지기의 소비 전력을 최소화하였다. 시험결과 임계온도스위치를 이용한 단독경보형 정온식 감지기는 소방청 고시 단독경보형 정온식 감지기 시험 조건을 만족했으며, 소비 전력을 측정한 결과 기존 제품 대비 70%의 전력만으로 화재를 감지함을 확인하였다.
