This paper proposes a synchronous switching technique for a Vienna rectifier that uses carrier-based pulse width modulation (CB-PWM). A three-phase Vienna rectifier, similar to a three-level T-type converter with three back-to-back switches, is used as a PWM rectifier. Conventional CB-PWM requires six independent gate signals to operate back-to-back switches. When internal switches are operated synchronously, only three independent gate signals are required, which simplifies the construction of gate driver circuits. However, with this method, total harmonic distortion of the input current is higher than that with conventional CB-PWM switching. A reactive current injection technique is proposed to improve current distortion. The performance of the proposed synchronous switching method and the effectiveness of the reactive current injection technique are verified using simulations and experiments performed with a set of Vienna rectifiers rated at 5 kW.

We utilize as a processor TMS320C25 (Texas Instrument) in making a driver for a 4 pole PM synchronous servo motor. TMS320C25 has a 32bit ALU and a 16 bit hardware multiplier, and the maximum instruction execution rate is 10MIPS at 40MHz. We adopted a space vector modulation PWM method. An interesting point of this work is that PWM wave is generated by utilizing timer interrupts. Hence, in the rest of time the processor can take care of the other routine such as Park's coordinate transformation and the computation required in the feedback loops. Thus, it mates the hardware circuit very simple. Due to the decrease in the number of components, the motor drive system becomes more fault-tolerant and cost-optimized. Also, more flexibility is gained in changing the control parameters.

The parer proposes a power factor correction high efficiency PWM single-phase rectifier. Its good characteristics such as simple PWM control, low switch stress, and low VAR rating of commutation circuits make the proposed rectifier very suitable for various unidirectional power applications. In addition, the proposed rectifier consists of three boost-converter-type IGBT modules with the switching devices located at the bottom leg of the rectifier scheme, which also enables the use of the same power supply in both control and gate driver, thus resulting in simple control and power circuit structure. The detailed principle of operation and experimental results are also included. In particular, the design guide line is also suggested to make the circuit design of the proposed rectifier easy and fast.

In this paper, we propose and implement the automated brightness control system using distance measuring sensor for reducing the power consumption of emotional lighting device. In order to reduce the power consumption of emotional lighting devices which express continuous color changes, the proposed device measures the distance continuously using ultrasonic sensor and by using this, it also performs PWM Dimming control. The lighting device is composed of micro controller, LED driver, ultrasonic sensor, communication module and so on. And the device performs the real time brightness control by adapting the measured distance information from ultrasonic sensor to PWM signals. From this experiment, we implement the active lighting system which minimizes unnecessary power consumption during user's absence by adapting existing energy reducing techniques.

Since the non-overlapping gate driver used in conventional DC-DC boost converters generates fixed dead-times, the converters suffer from the body-diode conduction loss or the charge-sharing loss. To reduce the efficiency degradation due to these losses, this paper presents a PWM DC-DC boost converter with adaptive dead-time control. In light loads, power switching is also employed to increase the efficiency. The designed DC-DC boost converter can thus achieve high efficiency at wide current range. The proposed DC-DC boost converter has 3.3V output from a 2.5V input with 0.18um technology. It operates at 500KHz and has a maximum power efficiency of 97.8%.
