This paper proposed a new amplitude width modulation for OLED data driver IC. The data driver controls brightness of OLED by adjusting amplitude and width of the data drive current pulse. There were two conventional methods; pulse amplitude modulation(PAM) and pulse width modulation(PWM). The PWM method suffered from lower light emitting time efficiency at low luminance signal. The PAM method suffered from large chip area using DACs for each column. The proposed method was aiming at accurately controlling of the current level by MSB data and light emitting efficiency by LSB data to improve the inefficiencies of the PAM and a PWM. The proposed AWM driver circuit implemented using $0.35-{\mu}m$ 3-poly 4-metal CMOS high voltage process. The simulation result shows the improvement in the accuracy of the gray level control even though the driver circuit is smaller than the PAM.

본 논문은 LED 조명 환경에서 Zigbee를 이용해서 Dimming 제어 모듈을 구성 하였다. 현재 사용되고 있는 LED 제어 모듈는 일반적으로 단일 출력을 사용하여 LED 조명의 일정한 밝기를 고정 출력이 되도록 사용되어지고 있다. 본 논문에서 구성된 무선 통신 모듈은 Zigbee를 이용하여 실내 환경에서 측정된 조도값을 무선으로 전송하도록 조도 센서 모듈을 구성 하였으며, 무선으로 전송된 조도값에 대한 출력을 제어하도록 구성하였다. MCU는 LED Driver IC를 이용하여 PWM 신호에 따라서 LED Driver IC에서 출력 전압을 변화하도록 하여 6단계의 밝기로 LED조명을 Dimming하도록 구성하였으며, 무선조도 센서는 10~15m의 거리에서 안정적으로 동작된다.

일반적으로 버크/부스트용 양방향 컨버터의 구현은 단 전원을 사용하는 각각의 PWM IC, 전류제어 PW 방식을 사용하게 된다. 이 경우 한쪽 모드로 동작시 다른 모드 제어기의 에러 앰프는 포화되기 때문에 모드 절환 동작시 마다 일정 시간 스위칭 동작을 멈추게 하는 회로가 필요하게 되어 원활한 방향 절환을 이룰 수 없게 된다. 본 연구에서는 양전원을 사용하는 하나의 제어기를 설계하여 방향 절환시의 문제점을 해결하고자 한다.

In this paper, we have space vector PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) circuits on the FPGA(Field Programmable Gate Arry) chip designed by VHDL(Very high speed integrated circuit Hardware Description Language). This circuit parts was required at controlling the AC servo motor system and should have been designed with many discrete digital logics. In the result of this study, peripheral circuits are to be simple and the designed logic terms are robust and precise. Because of it's easy verification and implementation, we could deduced that the customize FPGA chip show better performance than that of circuit modules parts constituted of discrete IC.

High power density and power conversion efficiency have been required in the power converters according to the rapid growth of industry. In this context, the next generation High Speed Train(HST) requires power converter which has high-efficiency, high-performance and high-density. In this paper, the new control technique for battery charger used for the next generation HST is proposed. The phase shift ZVZCS converter is classified according to a resonant circuit which is located in the primary or secondary side. In this paper, The PWM switching technique using all-pass filter is proposed to control ZVZCS converter which has resonant circuit in the secondary side. ATmega_128 micro controller based in all-pass filter in substitute for phase shift IC is presented to have digital control. To verify the proposed topology, the simulation and experiment are performed by using PSIM software and 1[kW] experimental set-up.

DC/DC switching power converters are commonly used to generate a regulated DC output voltage with high efficiency. The DC/DC converter is composed of a MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor), a PWM-IC (pulse width modulation-integrated circuit) controller, inductor, capacitor, etc. It is shown that the variation of threshold voltage and the breakdown voltage in the electrical characteristics of MOSFET occurs by radiation effects in TID (Total Ionizing Dose) testing at the low energy ${\gamma}$ rays using $^{60}Co$, and 5 heavy ions make the gate of MOSFET broken in SEGR (Single Event Gate Rupture) testing. TID testing on MOSFET is accomplished up to the total dose of 40 krad, and the cross section($cm^2$) versus LET(MeV/mg/$cm^2$) in the MOSFET operation is studied at SEGR testing after implementation of the controller board.

This paper proposes the new type LED driver modularization for illumination LED driver. The proposed LED driver circuit insulates a hot GND of AC input power and a cold GND of LED driver part by using a fly-back converter. In order to control easily the current of the LED, the fly-back converter is operated in the discontinuous mode with excellent dynamic characteristics, and the characteristics of the LED are verified after the closed loop control is performed using a KIA2431. The LED driver module allows the wide AC power input ranges and realizes the burst dimming function which directly regulates a PWM control IC. This paper describes the operation principle of the LED driver module and it is proved the usefulness through the real model with experimentation. Besides, this paper proposes the multi-channel LED driver which the miniaturized and modularized LED driver module are connected by parallel, and verified its propriety by experiments.

PMIC is controlled with PWM control method in order to have high power efficiency at high current level. DTMOS with low on-resistance is designed to decrease conduction loss. The control parts in Buck converter, that is, PWM control circuits consist of a saw-tooth generator, a band-gap reference circuit, an error amplifier and a comparator circuit as a block. The Saw-tooth generator is made to have 1.2 MHz oscillation frequency and full range of output swing from ground to supply voltage(VDD:3.3V). The comparator is designed with two stage OP amplifier. And the error amplifier has 70dB DC gain and $64^{\circ}$ phase margin. DC-DC converter, based on Voltage-mode PWM control circuits and low on-resistance switching device, achieved the high efficiency near 95% at 100mA output current. And DC-DC converter is designed with LDO in stand-by mode which fewer than 1mA for high efficiency.
