We analysised the effect of harmonics on electric machines of substation power system barred on quantitatively measured harmonics and proposed the methods for prevention of harmonics through checking on transformer, rectifier and cable's capacities against harmonics with reference to KEPCO's electricity service standard. In order to analysis harmoninics of silicon rectifier that is power source in DC substation, computer simulations for a substation with TR of high voltage distribution switchboard are performed. Simulation results show that the total harmonic distortion factor becomes smaller for TR primary and receiving points in order rather than silicon rectifier which is harmonic generation source so that the harmonics generated frets each rectifier are outflowed to power supply and high voltage distribution switchboard The result of higher distortion factors of voltage and current for rectifier with 100% load than those with 50 % and 30% indicates that the waveform of voltage and current for the real substation power system at the office-going and the closing hours with heavy loads might be more distorted. As proposed methods for harmonic reduction, the conventional 6 pulse-type for substation is required to be replaced by 12 pulse-type for reduction of 5th and 7th harmonics. The active filter rather than the passive filter is more effective due to severe variance of rectifier loads, but the high cost is price to be paid. In view of installation area and costs, the use of 12 pulse-type transformer is desirable and then the parallel transformer and the rectifier within the substation must be replaced at the same time. Other substations with parallel feeder can use 6 pulse-type transformer.

A transcranial magnetic stimulation device is a complicated appliance that employs a switching power device designed for discharging and charging a capacitor to more than 1 kV. For a simple transcranial magnetic stimulation device, this study used commercial power and controlled the firing angle using a Triac power device. AC 220V 60 Hz, the power device was used directly on the tanscranial magnetic stimulation device. The power supply device does not require a current limiting resistance in the rectifying device, energy storage capacitor or discharge circuit. To control the output power of the tanscranial magnetic stimulation device, the pulse repetition rate was regulated at 60 Hz. The change trigger of the Triac gate could be varied from $45^{\circ}$ to $135^{\circ}$. The AVR 182 (Zero Cross Detector) Chip and AVR one chip microprocessor could control the gate signal of the Triac precisely. The stimulation frequency of 50 Hz could be implemented when the initial charging voltage Vi was 1,000 V. The amplitude, pulse duration, frequency stimulation, train duration and power consumption was 0.1-2.2T, $250{\sim}300{\mu}s$, 0.1-60 Hz, 1-100 Sec and < 1 kW, respectively. Based on the results of this study, TMS can be an effective method of treating dysfunction and improving function of brain cells in brain damage caused by ischemia.

This paper presents a balanced soft-chopping circuit and a modified PI controller for a high speed 4/2 Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) with a 16 pulse per revolution encoder. The proposed balanced soft-chopping circuit can supply double the switching frequency in the fixed switching frequency of power devices to reduce current ripple. The modified PI controller uses maximum voltage, back-emf voltage and PI control modes to overcome the over-shoot current due to the time delay effect of current sensing. The maximum voltage mode can supply a fast excitation current with consideration of the hardware time delay. Then the back-emf voltage mode can suppress the current over-shoot with consideration of the feedback signal delay. Finally, the PI control mode can adjust the phase current to a desired value with a fast switching frequency due to the proposed balanced soft-chopping technology.

Recently deep interests have been paid on the effective generation of ozone, which has been widely used for water treatment, deoderization, color removal and chemical processing of exhausted smoke. The silent discharge reaction has been proposed as the most effective in the many ozone generation methods by electric discharge, because silent discharge excel others in the condition of high ozone generation yield and low power consumption. In this paper, ozone water generated system measure with silent discharge characteristics and pulsed power supply.

LLC resonant converter has been widely used because of its high efficiency and high energy density. In this paper, we designed a LLC resonant converter as the main power supply of the Nd:YAG pulse laser. First harmonic approximation (FHA) is used to model the LLC resonant converter. FHA equivalent circuit model and the transfer function of the LLC resonant converter is proposed. Soft start technology is also used to suppress the surge current. The laser output simulation test result is identical with the practical test, the laser energy of every pulse can reach up to 2.5J, and the pulse per second (PPS) can be adjusted from 6 to 18. The power system is verified stable and reliable by both of the simulation and experiment results.

The pulsed amplifier which switches the main supply voltage of RF amplifier according to input pulse signal has good efficiency and low noise level between pulses. And it has simple structure because it doesn't need a pulse modulator at input port. The pulsed amplifier using the conventional switching circuit has slow fall time compared to rise time. We proposed the novel switching circuit for improving the fall time of pulsed amplifier The proposed switching circuit is implemented by replacing FET of conventional circuit with BJT. As a result of appling this circuit to RF pulsed amplifier, the rise and fall time are 5.7 ns and 21.9 ns at 27 dBm output power, respectively.

Electrical repair method which has replaced laser repair method can replace defective cell by redundancy’s in the redundancy scheme of conventional high density memory. This electrical repair circuit consists of the antifuse program/read/latch circuits, a clock generator a negative voltage generator a power-up pulse circuit a special address mux and etc. The measured program voltage of made antifuses was 7.2~7.5V and the resistance of programmed antifuses was below 500 Ω. The period of clock generator was about 30 ns. The output voltage of a negative voltage generator was about 4.3 V and the current capacity was maximum 825 $mutextrm{A}$. An antifuse was programmed using by the electric potential difference between supply-voltage (3.3 V) and output voltage generator. The output pulse width of a power-up pulse circuit was 30 ns ~ 1$mutextrm{s}$ with the variation of power-up time. The programmed antifuse resistance required below 44 ㏀ from the simulation of antifuse program/read/latch circuit. Therefore the electrical repair circuit behaved safely and the yield of high densitymemory will be increased by using the circuit.
