This paper was studied electromagnetic field distribution and damping of PD(Partial Discharge) signal in GIS(Gas Insulated Switchgear). Cut-off frequency of electromagnetic wave propagation modes were computed, electromagnetic field distribution of propagation modes in GIS by FEM(Finite Element Method) were simulated and simulated damping characteristic of electromagnetic waves in GIS by EMTP(Electromagnetic Transient Program) when generated PD pulse. Frequency band of $TE_{mn}/TM_{mn}$ modes were determinated by simulation results of electromagnetic field distribution and were discussed optimal position of UHF sensor from this results. Equivalent circuit was used to simulate signal damping of PD pulse in GIS by EMTP and compared with measured results in laboratory of KERI.

An increasing number of power electronic applications require high power density. Therefore, the switching frequency and switching speed have to be raised considerably. However, the very fast switching transients induce a strong voltage and current ringing. In this work, a novel damping concept is introduced where the parasitic wiring inductances are advantageously magnetically coupled with a damping layer for attenuating these unwanted oscillations. The proposed damping layer can be implemented using standard materials and printed circuit board manufacturing processes. The system behavior is analyzed in detail and design guidelines for a damping layer with optimized RC termination network are given. The effectiveness of the introduced layer is determined by layout parasitics which are calculated by application of the Partial Element Equivalent Circuit (PEEC) simulation method. Finally, simulations and measurements on a laboratory prototype demonstrate the good performance of the proposed damping approach.

With the advances on wireless internet technology, many research on minimization of wireless LAN is on the progress. To apply passive components in MCM, characteristic analysis of passive components is essential. In this paper, three square spiral inductors were modeled by HSPICE using PEEC (Partial Element Equivalent Circuit) method. Afterwards, Monte-Carlo analysis was performed to evaluate the optimized parameters. This work will give an idea on PEEC modeling of spiral inductor, and enable researchers with predictive data before large scale manufacturing.

Exact simulation of conducted EMI in switched mode power supplies is proposed. In order to achieve exact simulation, PSPICE active component ABM model and modified transformer model are proposed. Each model parameter is extracted from measurements and data-books. PSPICE simulation results with high frequency PCB pattern model are accordant with EMI measurements for a 50[W] isolated flyback converter. EMI relations of each component and EMI patterns are analyzed.

In this paper, a ZVS-PWM high-frequency inverter with a PWM control function is applied to commercial system 220[Vrms], and a resonator type ZVS-PWM high-frequency inverter circuit with a fixed-two methods were proposed. The parameters of the transformer model equivalent circuit of a copier fixing device, which is an essential element in the parameter optimization of the proposed circuit, are obtained by using a high-frequency amplifier and its frequency characteristics are described. The proposed method compared to the existing single-ended ZVS-PFM high frequency inverter can suppress the voltage and current peak value of the power semiconductor switching device and reduce the switching loss. The efficiency of the proposed method itself is 98[%] at rated power output. Also, the efficiency of 96[%] can be obtained even at low output, so that the proposed high frequency inverter is very efficient inverter. The total efficiency from the commercial AC input to the inverter output is 93[%] at rated, which is considered efficient for use in copying machines. In addition, the diode bridge loss accounts for the largest portion of the overall system efficiency distribution. On the other hand, the nonparallel filter has a very low loss.

For high frequency microstrip line modelling, a fast inductance extraction technique using an adaptive PEEC(partial element equivalent circuit) grid is proposed. The grid refinement technique is based on the current distribution depend on the excitation frequencies and the geometry of the microstrip lines. The adaptive ids are refined mainly in the area where heavy currents reside. This technique is applied to the inductance extraction of the microstrip lines. The results show fast convergence, and this adaptive technique is efficient to reduce computing time and the number of grids.

A systematic design approach for Power distribution network (PDN) is presented aiming at applications to DRAM module designs. Three main stages are comprised in this design approach: modeling and simulation of a PDN based on a two-dimensional transmission line structure employing a partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC); verification of the simulation results through comparison to measured values; and design space scanning with PDN parameters. Impedance characteristics for do-coupling capacitors are analyzed to devise an effective way to stabilize power and ground plane Performance within a target level of disturbances. Self-impedance and transfer-impedance are studied in terms of distance between circuit features and the size of do-coupling capacitors. A simple equation has been derived to find the do-coupling capacitance values yielding impedance lower than design target, and thereby reducing the overall computation time. The effectiveness of the design methodology has been demonstrated using a DRAM module with discrete do-coupling capacitors and a strip structure.

With the lower supply voltage and the higher operating frequency in integrated circuits, the analysis of the power distribution network (PDN) including on-chip inductances becomes more important. In this paper, an effective inductance extraction method for a regular on-chip power grid structure is proposed. The loop inductance model applicable to chip layout is proposed and the inductance extraction tool using the proposed inductance model based on post layout RC circuits is developed. The accuracy of the proposed loop model and the developed tool is verified by comparing the test circuit simulation results with those from the partial element equivalent circuit (PEEC) model. The voltage fluctuation from the RLC circuits extracted by the developed tool was examined for the analysis of on-chip inductance effects. The significance of on-chip power grid inductance was investigated by the co-simulation of chip-package-PCB.

Inductive sensors are versatile and economical devices that are widely used to measure a wide variety of physical variables, such as displacement, force, and pressure. In this paper, we propose a simple inductive sensor consisting of a thin partial ring and a coil set. The self-inductance of the sensor was estimated using magnetic circuit analysis and validated through finite element analysis (FEA). The natural frequency of the ring was estimated using Castigliano's theorem and the method of equivalent mass. The estimation was validated through experiments and FEA. A prototype sensor with a signal processing circuit is built and applied to noninvasively sense the pressure inside a flexible tube. The obtained sensor outputs show quadratic behavior with respect to the pressure. When fitted to a quadratic equation, the least-square measurement error was less than 2%. The results confirm the feasibility of pressure sensing using the proposed inductive sensor.
