Marine controlled-source electromagnetic transmitters (MCSETs) are important in marine electromagnetic exploration systems. They play a crucial role in the exploration of solid mineral resources, marine oil, and gas and in marine engineering evaluation. A DC-DC controlled-source circuit is typically used in traditional MCSETs, but using this circuit in MCSETs causes several problems, such as large voltage ringing of the high-frequency diode, heating of the insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) module, high temperature of the high-frequency transformer, loss of the duty cycle, and low transmission efficiency of the controlled-source circuit. This paper presents a clamping-diode circuit for MCSET (CDC-MCSET). Clamping diodes are added to the controlled-source circuit to reduce the loss of the duty ratio and the voltage peak of the high-frequency diode. The temperature of the high-frequency diode, IGBT module, and transformer is decreased, and the service life of these devices is prolonged. The power transmission efficiency of the controlled-source circuit is also improved. Saber simulation and a 20 KW MCSET are used to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed CDC-MCSET.

Semiconductor diode lasers that can generate one watt or more of optical energy for tens of milliseconds (quasi continuous wave) are now readily available. Several researchers have demonstrated that this power level, when properly coupled, can reliably initiate pyrotechnic mixtures. This means that the initiator containing the pyrotechnic can be protected against inadvertent initiation from electromagnetic radiation or electrostatic discharge by a conducting Faraday cage surrounding the explosive. Only a small dielectric window penetrates the housing of the initiator, thereby eliminating the conductors necessitated by a bridgewire electroexplosive device. The diode laser itself, however, functions at a low voltage (typically 3 volts) and hence is susceptible to inadvertent function from power supply short circuits, electrostatic discharge or induced RF energy. The rocket motor arm-fire device de-scribed in this paper uses a diode laser, but protects it from unintentional function with a Radio Frequency Attenuating Coupler (RFAC).The RFAC, invented by ML Aviation, a UK company, transfers power into a Faraday cage via magnetic flux, thereby protecting the diode, its drive circuit and the pyrotechnic from all electromagnetic and electrostatic hazards. The first production application of a diode laser and RFAC device was by the Korean Agency for Defense Development.

본 연구에서는 VHDL로 설계한 CPLD 제어기를 이용하여 3상 다이오드 정류기 입력전류에 포함된 고조파성분을 저감시켰다. 3상 다이오드는 매 순간 3상중에서 가장 높은 장에서 가장 낮은 장으로 전류가 흐르게 되므로 나머지 한 장의 전류가 불연속적이 된다. 개발된 CPID 제어기는 다어오드로 도통되지 않는 상의 전류를 부가적으로 설치한 스위치를 통하여 흐르게 하여 전류가 연속으로 도통되게 한다. CPLD 제어기는 기존의 디지털 프로세서를 이용한 제어기에 비해 고속의 처리능력과 소형화획 장점 등을 가점을 확인하였다. 시뮬레이션과 실험결과로 제안된 제어기의 성능을 검증하였다.

커패시터 필터를 갖는 3 상 다이오드 정류회로는 입력전압의 불평형에 매우 민감한 특성을 가지고 있다. 이러한 정류회로는 그 동작의 비선형성으로 인해 작은 전압의 불평형에도 입력전류에는 큰 불평형이 나타날 수 있으며 이로 인해 전원품질에 악영향을 미친다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 불평형 증폭특성을 이론적으로 규명하고 불평형 정도에 따른 정류회로의 동작모드에 따라 재반 입력전류의 특성에 대한 모델을 도출하였다. 본 논문의 결과는 각종 전력변환 장치의 입력부로서 널리 사용되는 커패시터 필터형 3상 다이오드 정류회로를 최적 설계하는 데에 중요한 해석적 기초를 제공하고 있다.

This paper presents an improved three-phase PFC power rectifier with a three-phase diode rectifier cascaded four-switch boost converter. Its operating principle contains the operating principle of two conventional three-phase PFC power rectifiers: one switch boost converter type and a two switch boost converter type. The operating characteristics of the four switch boost converter type three-phase PFC power rectifier are evaluated from a practical point of view, being compared with one switch boost converter type and two switch boost converter topologies.

This paper proposes a new lossless snubber circuit on power supply for welding machine's output rectification diode. To improve the common inverter control type power supplies' problems that energy loss and heating in the snubber circuit because the output capacity makes too big heat energy in the circuit when the output current of the inverter is rectified by the diode bridge circuit, which includes the snubber circuit. This paper suggested new snubber circuit have increased power factor and confidence of output by being regenerate thus lost energy to input node.

With the introduction of high-current 8-inch solar cells, conventional Schottky bypass diodes, usually adopted in photovoltaic (PV) panels to prevent the hot spot phenomenon, are becoming ineffective as they cause relatively high voltage drops with associated undue power consumption. In this paper, we present the architecture of an active circuit that reduces the aforementioned power dissipation by profitably replacing the bypass diode through a power MOS switch with its embedded driving circuitry. Experimental prototypes were fabricated and tested, showing that the proposed solution allows a reduction of the power dissipation by more than 70% compared to conventional Schottky diodes. The whole circuit does not require a dedicated DC power and is fully compatible with standard CMOS technologies. This enables its integration, even directly on the panel, thereby opening new scenarios for next generation PV systems.

We propose a diode-based RF pre-distorter with various gain and phase characteristics, for non-linearity compensation of RF power amplifiers. This pre-distorter results in the removal of the diode- and configuration-dependent characteristics in the conventional diode-based RF pre-distorters. We have analyzed the operation principle of the proposed pre-distorter. The results show that gain and phase characteristics of the pre-distorter in all four quadrants are achieved. Several power amplifiers and test signals are used for verifying the performance of the proposed diode-based RF pre-distorter.

A number of dust particles are intruded into ODD(Optical disk drive) due to the flow caused by disk rotation and are adhered to a lens or disk surface. The space between the disk and the lens is being reduced. Someone indicates the problems of this drive that are relatively small data storing capacity and slow access time. In recent, the problems of this optical disk drive mentioned above are being solved by adding the speed of the disk's revolution, making the actuator high-speed or light, and making the beam spot size smaller than making the space narrow between disk and lens. These particle contamination affects seriously RF Signal, readout signal in an ODD. Especially, the affected parts by a particle contamination in an ODD's readout signal are objective lens and media.
