The unpredictable threat of lightning surge is ever increasing in today's low-voltage power supplies. Thus Surge protection devices for AC mains are more widely used. The false-tripping of the earth leakage breaker (ELB) can be caused by the installation of surge protection devices with MOV. In order to examine the cause of malfunction, the malfunction characteristics of ELBs applied by lightning surge were investigated experimentally. As a result, all of them brought about malfunctions under 7 kV of the impulse voltage. The suitable position of MOV and use of zener diode were suggested to eliminate the problems.

By using personal health devices, a type of bio-censor at home and building, for telemedicine, this paper proposes a new method to protect more robust patient's privacy than before scheme [1] by ensuring the integrity and the secure transmission further when it communicates with gateway which collecting bio-information from them. As the suggested method is designed to conform with ISO/IEEE 11073-20601 [2], which is international standard, it considered interoperability with various health devices.

A program for the protection coordination of distribution systems is reported. The developed program nailed DISCO, consisting of two modules has a capability of selling the overcurrent relays, reclosers, sectionalizers, fuses which are commonly used in the primary feeder systems. Setting is performed in a downstream fashion starting from the substation, and coordination rules are applied identifying the pattern of the primary-backup devices based on the depth-first search. T/C curves of various devices are handled by digitization for accuracy and various graphics and windows are adopted for user-friendly interface.

A novel Triple-Well P-type Triggered Silicon Controlled Rectifier (TWPTSCR) for on-chip ESD protection implemented with a triple-well CMOS technology is presented. Unlike conventional SCR devices, the proposed TWPTSCR offers a reduced triggering voltage level as well as the enhanced ESD performance of the SCR devices. From the experimental results, the TWPTSCR with a device width of 20um has the triggering voltage of 1.1V.

A method to control the speed or the torque of a permanent-magnet direct current motor is presented. The rotor speed and the external torque estimation are simultaneously provided by appropriate observers. The sensorless control scheme is based on current measurement and switching states of power devices. The observers performances are dependent on the accurate machine parameters knowledge. Sliding mode control approach was adopted for drive control, providing the suitable switching states to the chopper power devices. Despite the predictable chattering, a convenient first order switching function was considered enough to define the sliding surface and to correspond with the desired control specifications and drive performance. The experimental implementation was supported on a single dsPIC and the controller includes a logic overcurrent protection.

This paper was proposed 900 V Power MOSFET with ESD protection circuits using zener diodes. And we were carried out and analyzed its electrical characteristics. As a result of designing 900 V power MOSFET, we obtained 1,000 V breakdown voltage, 3.49 V threshold voltage and $0.249{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$. And we designed ESD circuits using 2 series zener diode and 4 series zener diodes. After analyzing electrical characteristics, we obtained 26 V forward voltage drop and 47 V breakdown voltage. Therefore, This devices can enoughly use power module, SMPS and Automotive.

Generally, in nuclear plants, distance relay (21R) has adapting to protect and to operate main protective of transmission lines and backup protective of main generator. Operation of 21R was required and based on exactly accurate calculation and criteria. But presently method of 21R setting has applied according to protection devices operation guide of KPX, excepting IEEE and ISA standards, which have a difference review directions, consider parameters and devices, also consideration factors were affected to relay operations by uncertain guides. therefore this paper proposed new protection relay setting method and unvague criteria from IEEE 741 and ANSI/ISA 67.04.01, and reviewed a different results through numerical calculation results for methods and criteria including previous and established 21r setting by IEEE, ANSI/ISA Technical standards.

Lithium-ion batteries used for IT, automobiles, and industrial energy-storage devices have battery management systems (BMS) to protect the battery from abnormal voltage, current, and temperature environments, as well as safety devices like, current interruption device (CID), fuse, and vent to obtain positive temperature coefficient (PTC). Nonetheless, there are harmful to human health and property and damage the brand image of the manufacturer because of smoke, fire, and explosion of lithium battery packs. In this paper, we propose a systematic protection algorithm combining battery temperature, over-current, and interconnection between protection elements to prevent copper deposition, internal short circuit, and separator shrinkage due to frequent and instantaneous over-current discharges. The parameters of the proposed algorithm are suggested to utilize the experimental data in consideration of battery pack operating conditions and malicious conditions.

With the rapid development of the portable devices such as laptops, cell phones, digital devices, the important of the secondary battery is increasing. In recent years, semiconductor industries, display technologies, and secondary batteries are believed to be three core business. In particular, smart phones have higher performances, but secondary batteries are not follow the trends. Recently, the stability problem by battery heat is raised. In this paper, we survey technology trends of the secondary battery and protection circuit.

Protection against lightning surge is an essential part of almost any electrical and electronic equipment today. Metal Oxide Varistor(MOV) is the single most important component in the overwhelming majority of the Surge Protective Devices(SPD) designated to provide such protection. In this paperr various types of MOV based SPD are inspected and experiments are carried out on the side effects of the low Measured Limiting Voltage(MLV) characteristics. Experiment results show that a lower MLV could cause a higher Temporary Overvoltage(TOV)-induced SPD failure rate in the field, and SPD are more likely to be victims rather than protectors in a TOV scenario. This means that from a safety perspective, the SPD should be specified with higher TOV withstand capability(UT) and faster SPD disconnector.
