This paper describes a 10-bit 75-MHz CMOS current-mode DAC designed for 0.8${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ double-poly double-metal CMOS technology. This D/A converter is implemented using a current cell matrix that can drive a resistive load without output buffer. In the DAC. a current source is proposed to reduce the linearity error caused by the threshold-voltage variations over a wafer and the glitch energy caused by the time lagging, The integral and differential linearity error are founded to be within $\pm$0.35 LSB and $\pm$0.31 LSB respectively. The maximum conversion rate is about 80 MS/s. The total power dissipation is 160 ㎽ at 75 MS/s conversion rate.

PRAM(Phase change access memory) has desirable characteristics including high speed, low cost, low power, and simple process. PRAM is based on the reversible phase transition between resistive amorphous and conductive crystalline states of chalcogenide. However, PRAM needs high reset current for operation. PRAM have to reduce reset current for high density and competitiveness. Therefore, we have investigated the reset current of PRAM with top electrode contact hole size using 3-D finite element analysis tool in this paper.

This paper describes the electrical characteristics of the ZnO surge arrester according to the variation of surrounding conditions. To investigate the characteristics of degraded ZnO surge arrester, 8/20 [${\mu$s], 2.5 [kA] impulse currents were applied to the ZnO surge arrester to be test. To present the effect of the surrounding con야tions, the leakage currents of ZnO surge arrester were measured to the surrounding temperature and wet conditions. As a result, the increase of ambient temperature causes the increase of resistive leakage current of ZnO surge arrester. Also, in the wet test, the outside leakage current through the ZnO surge arrester housing is much larger than the intrinsic leakage current.

Surge arrestor is used for protection of facilities and lines. Recently lots of arresters fatted prematurely In the distribution lines. It is important to know that what the cause of the failures is. This paper presents characteristics of the aged and new 18kV surge arrester. In order to analyse characteristics, we measured leakage current using specialty made leakage current measurement system and also investigated Tan $\delta$ of the arrester and microstructure of the elements. Through the investigation we found that the characteristics among the ZnO elements in an arrester were a little different, It means that the surge arreste can have non-uniform electric field due to the characteristic difference of The each element. Owing to this concentration of the electric field, the localized aging might be proceeded.

The quench characteristics of flux-lock type high-Tc superconducting fault current limiters(SFCL) was investigated. $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$(YBCO) thin film was used as the current limiting elements of the flux-lock type SFCL. The quench characteristics of current limiting elements consisting of the flux-lock type SFCL was more improved than that of the resistive type SFCL.

Small impedances in the superconducting parallel circuits cause unequal distribution of the currents in the circuits. This results in quenches or losses in some superconducting parts and decrease of total transport current. This paper presents the fabrication and test results of a superconducting multi- interphase transformers (SIPT) for equal current distribution in superconducting parallel circuits. The secondary loop configuration with air core SIPT seems to be the most efficient one for the SFCL. Test results show that the SIPT can effectively make the current distribution uniform in Parallel circuits that have unequal resistances.

This paper presents a new accelerating aging test facility for distribution lightning arresters. Aging parameters of lightning arrester are moisture ingress, electrical stress and surge absorption and so on. In this system, we applied 13.2kV to 6 samples and controled temperature and humidity of chamber and measured leakage currents of the all samples. Also we developed accelerating aging cycle which consists of -35$^{\circ}C$∼90$^{\circ}C$ temperature and 40%∼90% humidity. Through the aging test we found out the leakage current of aged sample increases rapidly according to the temperature rising. Hereafter we can determine the replacement guide of leakage current for field operating arresters and condition assessment of aged samples through this aging test.

In the distribution networks, it is required to develop compact and smart current and voltage sensors for compact and digital switchgears. The sensor developed newly adopt the priciple of rogowski coil for current sensing and resistive voltage divider for voltage sensing. The sensing characteristics and reliabilities were improved compared to conventional ones. In the near future, these voltage and current sensing apparatus will be widely used with electronic protection units for the distribution switchgear.

In this paper, a new detection method of series arc-fault signals occurring at the wiring of home appliances is proposed. The discrete wavelet transform was used for the numerical analysis of the variation rate in peak, RMS, noise energy, shoulder of the arc-fault current wave. As a results, the arc distinction threshold value of these variation rates was about 0.1 in most cases. The arc-fault current of the loads with the active PFC circuit showed a high rate of variation in noise energy and shoulder, but arc-fault current of the loads without the active PFC circuit showed a high rate of variation in peak and RMS. The arc fault current in resistive loads showed a high rate of variation in shoulder.

We studied YBCO films for current limiting of the resistive type which utilizes a transition from superconducting to normal state caused by exceeding critical current. The films were deposited on sapphire substrates and covered by gold top layer. The current limiting element consists of 2 mm wide YBCO stripes connected in series. A serious problem in using YBCO films for current limiting is inhomogeneities caused by imperfect manufacturing. Therefore simultaneous quench is a difficult problem when elements for current limiting are connected in series. So some researchers have recently proposed using magnetic field and heating for simultaneous quench. We have measured extended exec trim field-current density(E-J) characteristics for current limiting elements of YBCO films in applied magnetic field of 0 - 130 mT. And we have investigated quench characteristics in current limiting elements and between elements of YBCO films in applied magnetic field. The result of the experiments show that the presence of applied magnetic fields induces uniform quench distribution fur the stripes in element at $50V_{rms}$, otherwise non-uniform quenches were observed. And simultaneous quenches between elements were investigated at $150V_{rms}$. We suggest that suppressing the critical current by increased fields due to fault current effectively forced the stripes of higher $J_{c}$(0) to quench, resulting in equalizing quench times.s.s.s.
