  • Non-grid and grid method are used for modeling the routing region of the automatic routing system. In this study, we develop the automatic routing system by mixing the methods of non-grid and grid to improve the speed of routing. Grid method has a demerit which decreases the automatic routing speed because it is required a lot of memory by the limitation of the size of board and grid, although the electrical and physical elements are insufficient on the PCB, But non-grid is spent gurite less memory than grid method by using a shape-based patterns. Therefore, we used the methods of non-grid and grid altogether in this paper, In the former method, it is attributed to the improvement of speed, the latter one is applied only the connection of the failed routing in the former one, and it performs the complete automatic routing. This system was developed with C++language under the Windows NT environment of IBM 486DX2-66 Computer.

  • In this paper, we propose a new short-circuit detecting method which can detect bad short-circuits, one of bad types occurring in PCB(Printed Circuit Board), by using SURF(Speeded-Up Robust Features) algorithm. The basic procedure in the proposed method sequentially consists of extracting features from both sample and inputted images by SURF, performing perspective transform by feature matching and matching results, extracting check areas of interest, binary coding and extracting short-circuits, and verifying results. The proposed method focuses on the robustness which can detect bad short-circuits even though the position and angle of PCB are not uniform and arbitrarily placed. Experimental results show that our method enables to detect bad short-circuits regardless of the location and angle of PCB placed variously and validate that the proposed method outperforms the conventional methods detecting bad short-circuits manually on the aspect of both the detection rate and time.

  • This paper describes a 5-dof ground testbed which emulates micro-gravity environment for developing Rendezvous/docking algorithm of a nano-satellite. The testbed consists of two parts, the low part which eliminates friction force with ground and the upper part which has 3-dof rotational motion with respect to the low part. For Vison-based autonomous navigation algorithm, we use camera, LIDAR and AHRS as sensors and eight cold gas thrusters and three axis directional reaction wheels as actuators. All system software are implemented with C++ based on on-board computer and Linux OS.

  • The PMU (Payload Management Unit) in MSC (Multi-Spectral Camera) is the main subsystem for the management, control and power supply of the MSC payload operation. The PMU shall handle the communication with the BUS (Spacecraft) OBC (On Board Computer) for the command, the telemetry and the communications with the various MSC units. The PMU will perform that distributes power to the various MSC units, collects the telemetry reports from MSC units, performs thermal control of the EOS (Electro-Optical Subsystem), performs the NUC (Non-Uniformity Correction) function of the raw imagery data, and rearranges the pixel data and output it to the DCSU (Data Compression and Storage Unit). The BUS provides high voltage to the MSC. The PMU is connected to primary and redundant BUS power and distributes the high unregulated primary voltages for all MSC sub-units. The PSM (Power Supply Module) is an assembly in the PMU implements the interface between several channels on the input. The bus switches are used to prevent a single point system failure. Such a failure could need the PSS (Power Supply System) requirement to combine the two PSM boards' bus outputs in a wired-OR configuration. In such a configuration if one of the boards' output gets shorted to ground then the entire bus could fail thereby causing the entire MSC to fail. To prevent such a short from pulling down the system, the switch could be opened and disconnect the short from the bus. This switch operation is controlled by the BUS.

  • HSMS communication system using low-cost micro controller units(MCUs) is an essential technique for online semiconductor equipment system developments. It is intended as an alternative to SEMI E4 (SECS-I) for applications where higher speed communication is needed and the facilitated hardware setup is convenient. In this paper, an HSMS communication system using low-cost MCUS is designed and implemented. Using a MCU with a low price but high-performance as a main board, a module which processes HSMS communication is designed, and a circuit is designed to process BCR independently with a microminiature MCU. To convert tag data which is recognized from BCR into data based on HSMS communication protocol, SECS-II message is designed. Lastly, an HSMS communication system is implemented based on these designs. A low-cost HSMS communication module developed in this study can be applied in realtime monitoring and controlling system for semiconductor processes.

  • The modeling methods of routing region used in the automatic placement/routing system are a grid and non-grid. Because the gird method is curbed by its size and a board if the electrical and physical elements on PCB are of small quantity, it has many memories. Therefore, it has demerit which decreases the speed of automatic placement/routing. The Shape-based type, non-grid method, makes the shapes exist as an in dividual element in a memory by using a region-processing method. Each individual element needs very small memory since it has its unique data size. Therefore, this paper aimed to develope the automatic placement/routing system which can automatically place and route the PCB without dissipation of memory at a high speed. To this aim, the auction algorithm method was applied which can make the memories be most rapidly reached from the original point to various destinations. Also, this system was developed by the Visual C++ in the Widows environment of IBM Pentium computer in order to use it in an individual PC system.

  • This paper describes the design and performance of a hovering AUV 'NOAH' constructed at Jeju National University. We analyse the dynamic performance of NOAH using simulation program and carry out depth control test at small basin. The main purpose of NOAH is to carry out fundamental tests on its attitude control and position control. Its configuration is similar to general ROV appearance for underwater works and dimension is $0.75m{\times}0.5m{\times}0.5m$. It has 4 thrusters of 450watt for longitudinal/lateral/vertical propulsion and is equipped with a pressure sensor for measuring water depth and a magnetic compass for measuring heading angle. The navigation of the vehicle is controlled by an on-board Pentium III-class computer, which runs with the help of the Windows XP operating system. These give us an ideal environment for developing various algorithm which are needed for developing and advanced hovering AUV.

  • Currently developing the OBC of the next-generation LEO satellite by Korea Aerospace Research Institute adopts the LEON2-FT/AT697F processor to achieve high performance. And various communication devices such as SpaceWire, MIL-STD-1553B, DMAUART and CAN Master are integrated to the separated standard communication FPGAs within the OBC, where they can be controlled by the processor and flight software (FSW) through PCI interface. The Actel 1553BRM IP core is used for the 1553B in the next-generation LEO OBC and the B1553BRM wrapper from Aeroflex Gaisler is used for connecting it to the AMBA bus in FPGA. This paper presents the design and development of PCI-based 1553B communication software, and describes the handling mechanism of 1553B operation in FSW task level. Also it shows the test results on real-hardware and simulator.

  • In this paper, we proposed the hardware architecture of wavelet transform digital filter for an image processing. Filter bank pyramid algorithm is used for wavelet transform and each fillet is implemented by the FIR filter. For DWT computation, because the memory controller is implemented by hardware, we can efficiently process the multisolution decomposition of the image data only input the parameter. As a result of the image Processing in this paper, 33㏈ PSNR has been obtained on 512$\times$512 B/W image due to 11-bit mantissa processing in FPGA Implementation. And because of using QMF( Quadrature Mirror Filter) properties, it reduces half number of the multiplier needed DWT(Discrete Wavelet Transform) computation so the hardware size is reduced largely. The proposed scheme can increase the efficiency of an image Processing as well as hardware size reduced. The hardware design proposed of DWT fillet bank is synthesized by VHDL coding and then the test board is manufactured, the operating Program and the application Program are implemented using MFC++ and C++ language each other.
