The AMBA(Advanced Microcontroller Bus Architecture) system is one of the most important elements having an influence upon system performance in ARM-based SoC environments. The system guarantees easy connection and good performance as a 32-bit bus system for ARM processors. In this paper, we analyze arbitration algorithms for the AHB bus of the AMBA system and propose an efficient algorithm to improve the performance of the bus system.

This paper introduces and develops an efficient method for measuring power factor (PF) and its nature under nonlinear load current situations. The method is based on generating a pulse width modulated signal whose width correlates to the value of PF. This signal can then be employed as a feedback signal for controlling PF related power quantities in a system. This method has the advantages of its simple implementation, less computational complexity, and its allowable error of less than 4[%], which is justified by the computer simulation results.

This paper presents a method for the performance improvement of a shunt active power filter (SAPF) using the indirect current control (ICC) scheme. Compared to the conventional direct current control (DCC) scheme, the ICC gives better performance with a lower number of sensors. A simplified and efficient control algorithm using a low cost Intel 80C196KC microcontroller is implemented using only two current sensors for the source current and one voltage sensor for the DC-link voltage of the SAPF circuit. The objective is to eliminate harmonics and to compensate the reactive power produced by non-linear loads such as an uncontrolled rectifier feeding an inductive load. The APF is realized using a three phase voltage source inverter (VSI) with a dc bus capacitor. Experimental results are presented to prove the better performance of the ICC method over the DCC one.

If the speed measurement of resolver and the generation of PWM signals are implemented with single microcontroller, it is easy to reduce the system cost and to avoid the switching noise of inverters. To avoid the switching noise and to improve the accuracy of measurement, PWM switching and A/D sampling of the resolver should be synchronized. Phase angle of the resolver excitation signal is increased in stepwise manner, then, the output signal of the resolver is measured in each step. From the measured data, the optimal phase angle of resolver excitation signal is estimated using the least square approximation method.

본 논문은 필드버스 인터페이스를 위한 이중구조의 결함내성형 마이크로콘트롤러 구조를 제시하고, 테스트 환경을 구축하여 고장허용 기능을 검증한다. 이중구조의 결함내성형 마이트로 콘트롤러는 두 개의 프로세서 모듈의 출력을 비교하여 고장을 발견하고, 고장을 발견한 경우 버스 출력을 차단함으로써 전체 시스템의 오동작을 방지한다. 일단 고장을 발견하면 자체 진단을 통해 고장 상태를 판다하여, 영구적인 고장일 경우 정지하고 일시적인 고장일 경우에는 재시작을 통해 정상동작으로 복귀함으로써, 고장정지 및 일시적인 고장으로부터의 회복기능을 제공한다. 이중구조의 결함내성형 마이크로 콘트롤러에 필드버스 인터페이스 기능을 추가하여 자체적인 응용 노드로서의 기능을 수행할 수 있도록 한다. 그리고 이러한 노드를 MC68360프로세서를 이용하여 구현하고, 인위적인 고장주입을 통하여 그 기능을 검증한다.

The use of HDL(Hardware Description Language) is now central to the ASIC(Application Specific Integrated Circuit). HDL-based ASIC can simplify the process of development and has a competition in market because it reduce the consuming time for the design of IC(Integrated circuit) in system level. Therefore, the development of power electronics system on chip (SOC), to design microcontroller and switching logic as one chip, is required extremely for the purpose of having reliability and low cost in power electronics which is based on switching elements. The major application of SOC is variable converter, active filter inverter for induction motor. UPS and power supply with a view to reducing electro-magnetic pollution.

The multi-layer advanced high-performance bus (ML-AHB) BusMatrix proposed by ARM is an excellent architecture for applying embedded systems with low power. However, there is one clock cycle delay for each master in the ML-AHB BusMatrix of the advanced microcontroller bus architecture (AMBA) design kit (ADK) whenever a master starts new transactions or changes the slave layers. In this letter, we propose an improved design method to remove the one clock cycle delay in the ML-AHB BusMatrix of an ADK. We also remarkably reduce the total area and power consumption of the ML-AHB BusMatrix of an ADK with the elimination of the heavy input stages.

This letter describes an efficient technique for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) of an energy harvesting device. It is based on controlling the device voltage at the point of maximum power. Using a microcontroller with a power saving technique, the MPPT algorithm maintains the maximum power with low power consumption. An experiment shows that the algorithm maximizes the energy transfer power using an energy management IC fabricated in a 0.18-${\mu}m$ process. Compared to direct energy transfer to a battery, the proposed technique is more efficient for low-energy harvesting under variable conditions.

This paper presents the design and implementation of an embedded image stabilization control system for a mobile phone with a built-in camera. Image stabilization is a family of techniques for reducing image blur resulting from minute camera shake due to hand-held shooting, thereby allowing the use of shutter speeds slower than values normally required to obtain sharp images. A mechanical image stabilizer mechanism developed for a camera mobile phone is introduced and a digital control system as a part of the image stabilization system is designed and implemented on an 8-bit microcontroller with integer arithmetic in C. This paper focuses primarily on issues that need to be taken into consideration for fixed-point implementation of the digital controller. Several experimental results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the implemented image stabilization control system.
