In this paper, Green Mode Power IC is designed to reduce the standby power. The proposed and designed IC works for the Switch Mode Power Supply(SMPS) and has the function of PWM. To reduce the unnecessary electric power, burst mode and skip mode section are introduced and controlled by external power MOSFET to diminish the standby power. The proposed IC is designed and simulated by KEC 30V-High Voltage 0.5um CMOS Process. The structure of proposed IC is composed of voltage regulator circuit, voltage reference circuit, UVLO(Under Voltage Lock out) circuit, Ibias circuit, green circuit, PWM circuit, OSC circuit, protection circuit, control circuit, and level & driver circuit. Measuring the current consumption of each block from the simulation results, 1.2942 mA of the summing consumption current from each block is calculated and ot proved that it is within the our design target of 1.3 mA. The current consumption of the proposed IC in this paper is less than a half of conventional ICs, and power consumption is reduced to the extent of 1W in standby mode.

저전력에 사용되는 Flyback 컨버터에서는 일반적으로 트랜스포머의 보조권선을 통하여 구동 IC에 필요로 하는 전력을 공급한다. 하지만, USB PD와 같이 5~20V의 넓은 출력전압을 가지는 경우 IC Vcc 정격 전압을 위하여 Linear regulator 사용이 필수적이나, 이는 소자발열 및 시스템 효율을 저하시킨다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 출력전압 변동에 따라 변압기의 보조권선을 변환 시키는 회로를 제안하고자 한다.

Plant growth regulator is an essential pesticide to date while the available active ingredient is not well understood unlike fungicide, insecticide and herbicide. This study was aimed to evaluate a new chemical class of plant growth regulator, and the total of 92 benzene derivatives were screened for their germination and early stage of the root growth regulation on Brassica campestris. Thirty benzaldehydes, nine acids, one amide, and one ester showed potent root growth inhibitory activity (>70 % inhibition) while only salicylaldehyde showed potent germination inhibition ($IC_{50}=81.2mg/L$) suggesting that benzaldehyde was a key module candidate for the growth inhibition. Benzaldehydes were further evaluated for root growth inhibition. 2,3-Dihydroxybenzaldehyde and salicylaldehyde showed $IC_{50}$ values of 8.0 and 83.9 mg/L, respectively. On the other hand, salicylaldehyde, and 2,4,5-trihydroxybenzaldehyde were found to have root growth promotion effects less than 10 mg/L. This result suggests that the benzaldehyde is a new class candidate for plant growth regulator.

Due to the enormous progress achieved in light emitting diodes (LEDs) LEDs have been become a good solution for lightings. In LED driver for lighting applications, it is required high input voltage to drive more LEDs. Therefore, high-voltage should be changed to low-voltage to supply power for drive IC. In this paper, LED drive IC using voltage clamp bias circuit, it use a hysteretic-buck converter topology was proposed and verified through experiments.

This paper presents an LED backlight driver IC consisting of three linear current regulators and an output-voltage regulation loop with a self-adjustable reference voltage. In the proposed LED driver, the output voltage is controlled by dual feedback loops. The first loop senses and controls the output voltage, and the second loop senses the voltage drop of the linear current regulator and adjusts the reference voltage. With these feedback loops, the voltage drop of the linear current regulator is maintained at a minimum value, at which the driver efficiency is maximized. The output of the driver is a three-channel LED setup with four LEDs in each channel. The luminance is adjusted by the PWM dimming signal. The proposed driver is designed by a $0.35-{\mu}m$ 60-V high-voltage process, resulting in an experimental maximum efficiency of approximately 85%.

LDO(Low Drop-Out) regulators have become an essential building block in modern PMIC(Power Managment IC) to extend battery life of electronic devices. In this paper, we optimize capacitor-less LDO regulator via Geometric Programming(GP) designed using Dongbu HiTek $0.5{\mu}m$ BCDMOS process. GP-compatible models for stability and PSR of LDO regulators are derived based on monomial formulation of transistor characteristics. Average errors between simulation and the proposed model are 9.3 % and 13.1 %, for phase margin and PSR, respectively. Based on the proposed models, the capacitor-less LDO optimization can be performed by changing the PSR constraint of the design. The GP-compatible performance models developed in this work enables the design automation of capacitor-less LDO regulator for different design target specification.

In this paper, one of the core components of a mobile communication system, VCO(Voltage Controlled Oscillator) IC is designed. The VCO IC was designed, have realized as LC turned oscillator using varicap. LC sinusoidal tuned oscillator generally requires external inductors and thus remainding circuit is implemneted in monolithic IC. The circuit is fabricated using an 15 mask IC process and has a die size of 1150um${\times}$780um. The tests showed that VCO was operated at frequencies in the regions between 880MHz-915MHz in the control voltage range of 1V to 3V at 5V supply voltage and as the power supply was varied from 4.5V to 5.5V, the frequency varied 425KHz/V. The VCO IC has frequency shift of 1.97MHz/T, carrier level of -7dBm and power consumption of 16.7mA. Also it has phase noise of -80dBc/Hz, offset at 50KHz and harmonic response of center frequency is -41dBm. For the future development of the transceiver 1 chip, the previously mentioned external devices need to be incorporated into Si MMIC.

In this paper, a light-emitting diode (LED) backlight driver integrated circuit (IC) for medium-sized liquid crystal displays (LCDs) is proposed. In the proposed IC, a linear current regulator with matched internal resistors and an adaptive phase-shifted pulse-width modulation (PWM) dimming controller are also proposed to improve LED current uniformity and reliability. The double feedback loop control boost converter is used to achieve high power efficiency, fast transient characteristic, and high dimming frequency and resolution. The proposed IC was fabricated using the 0.35 ${\mu}m$ bipolar-CMOS-DMOS (BCD) process. The LED current uniformity and LED fault immunity of the proposed IC were verified through experiments. The measured power efficiency was 90%; the measured LED current uniformity, 97%; and the measured rising and falling times of the LED current, 86 and 7 ns, respectively. Due to the fast rising and falling characteristics, the proposed IC operates up to 39 kHz PWM dimming frequency, with an 8-bit dimming resolution. It was verified that the phase difference between the PWM dimming signals is changed adaptively when LED fault occurs. The experiment results showed that the proposed IC meets the requirements for the LED backlight driver IC for medium-sized LCDs.
