This paper presents a single phase high power factor PWM boost rectifier featuring soft commutat -ion of the active switches at zero current. It incorporates the most desirable properties of conventional PWM and soft switching resonant techniques. The input current shaping is achieved with average current mode control and continuous inductor current mode. This new PWM converter provides zero current turn on and turn off of the active switches, and it is suitable for high power applications employing IGBT's. The principle of operation, the theoretical analysis, a design example, and experi -mental results from a laboratory prototype rated at 1.6[kW] with 400[Vdc] output voltage are presented. The measured efficiency and the power factor were 96.2[%] and 0.99[%], respectively, with an input current THD equal to 3.94[%], for an input voltage with THD equal to 3.8[%], at rated load.

Modulators Installed in PLS(Pohang Light Source) Linac are composed of a DC high voltage section, a charging section and a discharging section. PFN is charged by a resonant charging mechanism, and discharged by a switching device through the primary of the pulse transformer connected to a load. Charged PFN voltage must be well regulated to obtain stable output pulse voltage at the load. For this purpose, DCHV is controlled by a SCR controller with feedback signal, and PFN voltage is regulated by a De-Q'ing circuit. The full power operation test shows the pulse voltage regulation within ${\pm}0.13%$ with SCR feedback control alone, and within ${\pm}0.08%$ together with De-Q'ing. This paper describes the design concept and operational characteristics of the De-Q'ing circuit.

In mechatronic systems using electric signals to drive control systems, driving signals including the frequency band of the unwanted signals, such as resonant frequencies and noise frequencies, can affect the accuracy of the controlled system and can cause serious damage to the system due to the resonance phenomenon of the mechatronic system. An LOS (Line of Sight) control unit is used to automatically rotate the gimbal system with a video imaging system generally mounted on modern aerial vehicles. However, it still suffers from natural frequency variation problems due to variations of operational temperature. To prevent degradation in performance, this paper proposes an adaptive filtering technique based on real-time noise analysis and adaptive notch-filtering for LOS control systems, and verifies how our proposed method maintains the LOS stabilization performance. Additionally, this filtering technique can be applied to the image noise filtering of the video imaging system. It is designed to reduce image noises generated by switching circuits or power sources. The details of design procedures of the proposed filtering technique and the experiments for the performance verification are described in this paper.

A triple-band (TB) oscillator was implemented in the TSMC $0.18{\mu}m$ 1P6M CMOS process, and it uses a cross-coupled nMOS pair and two shunt $4^{th}$ order LC resonators to form a $6^{th}$ order resonator with three resonant frequencies. The oscillator uses the varactors for band switching and frequency tuning. The core current and power consumption of the high (middle, low)- band core oscillator are 3.59(3.42, 3.4) mA and 2.4(2.29, 2.28) mW, respectively at the dc drain-source bias of 0.67V. The oscillator can generate differential signals in the frequency range of 8.04-8.68 GHz, 5.82-6.15 GHz, and 3.68-4.08 GHz. The die area of the triple-band oscillator is $0.835{\times}1.103mm^2$.

최근 휴대용 어댑터의 동향은 고주파수 전력 컨버터 설계를 통한 어댑터의 고효율화 및 소형화의 중요성을 강조하고 있다. 그러나 기존 준공진형(Quasi Resonant, QR) 플라이백 컨버터는 하드 스위칭 동작으로 고주파수 구동에 한계가 있으며, 누설 인덕턴스 에너지에 의한 손실로 인해 고효율을 달성하기가 어렵다. 반면, 능동 클램프 플라이백(Active Clamp Flyback, ACF) 컨버터는 ZVS(Zero Voltage Switching) 동작을 하여 고주파수 구동에 유리하고, 누설 인덕턴스 에너지를 입력으로 회기 시킴으로써 손실을 저감할 수 있다. 또한, 경계전류모드(Boundary Conduction Mode, BCM) 동작에서의 손실분석을 기반으로, 반도체 특성이 우수하여 고주파수 동작에 유리한 GaN-FET를 적용하고 최적 설계를 진행함으로써 고효율 및 고전력밀도를 달성하였다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 GaN-FET를 기반으로 하는 고효율 및 고전력밀도 BCM ACF 컨버터의 최적 설계 방안을 제시하고 65W급 시작품의 실험결과를 통해 이를 검증한다.

기술이 발전함에 따라 전력변환기의 소형화 고효율화가 요구되어지고, 이를 위해 고주파 스위칭 전력변환기가 필요로 하게 된다. 하지만 스위칭 주파수와 비례적으로 스위칭 손실이 증가하기 때문에 시스템의 효율이 감소한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 DCM방식이나 공진을 이용한 ZVZCS(Zero-Voltage Zero-Currrent) 컨버터가 제안되고 있으나 소자의 정격용량이 커지는 단점을 갖는다. 또한 ZVT(Zero-Voltage Transition)를 포함한 소프트 스위칭 기법을 적용하는 다양한 컨버터가 제안되고 있으나 공진전류의 첨두에서 보조스위치가 스위칭을 하게 되어 보조스위치 스위칭 손실이 큰 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 변압기로 공진인덕터의 전압을 제한시켜 보조 스위치가 영전압/영전류 스위칭을 하게 함으로서 스위칭 손실을 발생시키지 않는 소프트 스위칭 구조를 제안한다.
