Depending on an external power source's capability, the charger selects proper charging-mode automatically. The charger IC designed and fabricated on Dongbu HITEC's $0.35{\mu}m$ BCD process with layers of one poly and three metals.

This paper describes RF front-end transceiver chipset for the dual-mode operation of PCS-Korea and IMT-2000. The transceiver chipset has been implemented in a $0.25\mutextrm{m}$ single-poly five-metal CMOS technology. The receiver IC consists of a LNA and a down-mixer, and the transmitter IC integrates an up-mixer. Measurements show that the transceiver chipset covers the wide RF range from 1.8GHz for PCS-Korea to 2.1GHz for IMT-2000. The LNA has 2.8~3.1dB NF, 14~13dB gain and 5~4dBm IIP3. The down mixer has 15.5~16.0dB NF, 15~13dB power conversion gain and 2~0dBm IIP3. The up mixer has 0~2dB power conversion gain and 6~3dBm OIP3. With a single 3.0V power supply, the LNA, down-mixer, and up-mixer consume 6mA, 30mA, and 25mA, respectively.

In this work, the effects of maleic anhydride (MA) content on mechanical properties of chopped carbon fibers (CFs)-reinforced MA-grafted-polypropylene (MAPP) matrix composites. A direct oxyfluorination on CF surfaces was applied to increase the interfacial strength between the CFs and MAPP matrix. The mechanical properties of the CFs/MAPP composites are likely to be different in terms of MA content. Surface characteristics were observed by scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and single fiber contact angle method. The mechanical properties of the composites were also measured by a critical stress intensity factor (K_IC). From the K_IC test results, the K_IC values were increased to a maximum value of 3.4 MPa with the 0.1 % of MA in the PP, and then decreased with higher MA content.

This study proceeded an experiment that can increase such physiological properties of heated radish extract. During the extraction of radish, including the byproduct, an increase in antioxidant properties of radish according the heating temperature was performed. Upon the extracts of radish bark and radish green extract(mucheong), the physiological functionalities and antioxidant activity were investigated. As a result, the color of radish ethanol extract in dependence of heating temperature, showed light brown color at low heating temperature and black color from $150^{\circ}C$. The total polyphenol content significantly increased as a result of heat treatment; 6.7 times and 22 times higher than the control at $110^{\circ}C$ and $150^{\circ}C$, respectively. DPPH radical scavenging ability and antioxidant property increased with increasing heating temperature; in comparison to heat-treated radish at $110^{\circ}C$ and $150^{\circ}C$, $IC_{50}$ decreased by 1/22 times. $IC_{50}$ of the control was 23times higher than $150^{\circ}C$ heat treated radish (Control $IC_{50}$:130.305). According to the graph that represents ABTS activity, antioxidant activity increased in dependence of heat treatment likewise to the total polyphenol content and DDPH radical scavenging activity. Upon heat treatment at $150^{\circ}C$, antioxidant activity in consequence of ABTS assay increased 23 times higher than the control.

This paper describes a COMS IF transceiver IC for 10-MHz bandwidth wireless local loops. It interfaces between the RF section and the digital MODEM section and performs the IF-to-baseband (Rx) and baseband-to-IF (Tx) frequency conversions. The chip incorporates variable gain amplifiers, phase-locked loops, low pass filters, analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters. It has been implemented in a 0.6 -${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ 2-poly 3-metal CMOS process. The phase-locked loops include voltage-controlled oscillators, dividers, phase detectors, and charge pumps on chip. The only external complonents are the filter and the varactor-tuned LC tank circuit. The chip size is 4 mm $\times$ 4 mm and the total supply current is about 57 mA at 3.3 V.

This paper describes a auto focus piezo actuator driver IC for portable digital camera. The 80[V] DC voltage is generated by a DC-DC converter and supplied to power of piezo moving control circuit. The voltage of piezo actuator needs range -20[V] to 80[V] proportional to 1[Vp-p] input control voltages. The dimensions and number of external parts are minimized in order to get a smaller hardware size. IIC(Inter-IC) interface logic is designed for data interface and it makes debugging easy, test for mass productions. The power consumption is around 40[mW] with supply voltage of 3.6[V]. This device has been fabricated in a 0.6[um] double poly, triple metal 100[V] BCD MOS process and whole chip size is 1600*1500 [$um^2$].

This paper presents a design of LLC resonant converter IC for LED backlight unit based on PFM/PWM dual-mode feedback. Dual output LLC resonant architecture with a single inductor is proposed, where the master output is controlled by the PFM and slave output is controlled by the PWM. To regulate the master output PFM is used as feedback to control the frequency of the power switch. On the other hand, PWM feedback is used to control the pulse width of the power switch and to regulate the slave output. This chip is fabricated in 0.35um 2P3M BC(Bipolar-CMOS-DMOS) Process and the die area is $2.3mm{\times}2.2mm$. Current consumptions is 26mA from 5V supply.

The objective of this study was to develop a polymeric drug delivery system for camptothecin (CPT), capable of improving its therapeutic index and reducing its side effects. A monomeric conjugate, 3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalimidoethanoylcamptothecin in (ETECPT) between CPT and 3,6-endo-methylene-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalimidoethanoic acid was synthesized. Its homo-and copolymer with acrylic acid (AA) were prepared by photopolymerization using 2,2-dimethoxy-2-phenylacetophenone (DMP) as a photoinitiator. The monomer and its polymers were characterized by IR, $^1$H- and $^{13}$ C-NMR spectra. The ETECPT content in poly(ETECPT-co-AA) obtained by elemental analysis was 82 wt%. The number-average molecular weights of the polymers determined by gel permeation chromatography were as follows: M$_{n}$ = 11,400 for poly(ETECPT), M$_{n}$ = 17,900 for poly(ETECPT-co-AA). The $IC_{50}$/ values of ETECPT and its polymers against cancer cells were much larger than that of CPT. Our results from the in vivo antitumor activity indicated that all polymers show high antitumor activity than CPT at a dose of 100 mg/kg./kg.

This paper presents development of a 4-inch WVCA OCB (Optical Compensated Bend)-mode display panel. The developed panel has a built-in circuit of the LTPS (low temperature poly-Si)-integrated gate driver circuit with the function of black data insertion. The function of black data insertion makes it possible to realize rapid response time of 4ms and wide viewing angle of $160^{\circ}$. We also applied the RGBW pixel structure for the brighter image with relatively low power consumption. The developed panel showed improved optical efficiency and driving capability of stable image quality for OCB mode. We developed high efficiency OCB-mode panel with built-in integrated gate driver circuit using LTPS on panel without any external driver IC.
