Analog-digital converter (ADC) should be one of the most important blocks that convert various physical signals to digital ones for signal processing in the digital signal domain. As most operations of the analog circuit for sensor signal processing have been replaced by digital circuits, high-resolution performance is required for ADC. In addition, low-power must be the critical issue in order to extend the battery time of mobile system. The existing integrating sigma-delta ADCs has a characteristic of high resolution, but due to its low supply voltage condition and advanced technology, circuit error and corresponding resolution degradation of ADC result from the finite gain of the operational amplifier in the integrator. Buffer compensation technique can be applied to minimize gain errors, but there is a disadvantage of additional power dissipation due to the added buffer. In this paper, incremental signal-delta ADC is proposed with buffer switching scheme to minimize current and igh-pass bias circuit to improve the settling time.

In this paper a predictive current control strategy is adopted in the D.C motor drive using dual converter. It is a kind of feedforward control working without overshoot within very short settling time. The difference to the well-known PI current control lies in considering the computer's ability of pre-calcurating the converter's behavior. By simulation it is shown that the predictive current control solve the problems of optimal PI current control, such as overshoot and settling time.

In a high performance motor driving system, PI controller which is simple implementation is frequently used. But, PI controller has various problems because of an integrator saturation. Therefore, the various methods of an anti-windup have been studied to solve such problems. But, conventional anti-windup methods have still problem with large overshoot and long settling time in the driving conditions. In this paper, to improve such problem, it is proposed a new anti-windup strategy. Using LPF and PI controller, it is improved an overshoot and reduced settling time. Simulation results have verified usefulness of the proposed method using MATLAB/Simulink.

The windup phenomenon appears and results in performance degradation such as large overshoot, slow settling time when the integral-proportional (IP) controller output is saturated. An anti-windup IP controller is proposed to improve the control performance for the motor drives. The proposed algorithm is applied to the current control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated(PWM) voltage-source inverter. The integral state is separately controlled corresponding to whether the IP controller output is saturated or not. The experimental results show that the current response has much improved performance such as little overshoot and fast settling time.

Granulation characteristics have been studied with an aerobic sequencing batch reactor(SBR). Organic loading of 2.46kg COD/$m^3$/day followed by 4.14kg COD/$m^3$/day had been applied to the lab-scale SBR with a very short settling time during the operating cycle. The granulation proceeded to the diameter range of 3 to 5 mm with MLSS concentration of 12,000mg/L at 45th days of operation while COD removal efficiency remained almost consistent after the granule formation. It has been noticed that aerobic granulation under the higher loading with a very short settling time seemed to be due to the microbial selection of better flocculating species.

In this study, Mg-Sericite was used as a flocculant to harvest freshwater microalgae, Chlorella. vulgaris. Mg-Sericite separated successfully >95% of the C. vulgaris at the following optimal parameters: Mg/Si mol ratio 1.25 to 1.50, mixing time of 20 min and settling time of 20 min. The harvesting efficiency was pH dependent. The highest harvesting efficiency ($99{\pm}0.3%$) was obtained at Mg/Si mol ratio 1.5 and pH 9 to 11. These results indicated that a biopolymer, Mg-Sericite, can be a promising flocculant due to its high efficiency, low dose requirements, short mixing and settling times. This harvesting method is helpful to lower the production cost of algae for biodiesel.

We designed a neuro-fuzzy controller to improve some problems that are happened when the DC servo motor is controlled by a PID controller or a fuzzy logic controller. Our model proposed in this paper has the stable and accurate responses, and shortened settling time. To prove the capability of the neuro-fuzzy controller designed in this paper, the proposed controller is applied to the speed control of DC servo motor. The results showed that the proposed controller did not produce the overshoot, which happens when PID controller is used, and also it did not produce the steady state error when FLC is used. And also, it reduced the settling time about 10%. In addition, we could by aware that our model was only about 60% of the value of current peak of PID controller.

This paper deals with mathmatical of an induction motor, considering non-linearity in the torque balance equation under closed loop operation with a reference speed. A controller based on Adaptive Nuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) is developed to minimize overshoot and settling time following sudden changes in load torque. The overall system is modeled and simulated using the Matlab/simulink and Fuzzy Logic Toolbox. The advantages of fuzzy logic and neural network based fuzzy logic controller. Required training data the ANFIS controller is generated by simulation of the anti-windup PI controller is eliminated using the ANFIS controller. The transient deviation of the response from the set reference following variation in load torque is found to be negligibly samll along with a desirable reduction in settling time for the ANFIS controller.

A control technique for the auxiliary buck/boost converter is proposed herein to improve the load transient response of the buck converter. The proposed technique improves the system efficiency by enabling the soft switching operation of the auxiliary converter. The design guidelines for achieving capacitor charge balance for the output capacitor during the transient are also presented herein. The experimental results revealed that the output voltage undershoot and settling time during the load step-up transient were 40 mV and 14 ㎲, respectively, and the output voltage overshoot and settling time during the load step-down transient were 35 mV and 21 ㎲, respectively. The performance and effectiveness of the proposed technique were experimentally verified using a prototype buck converter with a 15-V input, 3.3-V output, and 200-kHz switching frequency.

A DC generator control system was designed to control the torque of a rotating shaft precisely. The control system is composed of a strain gage type torque cell, a torque cell amplifier, a computer, a D/A converter, a error detector, a DC voltage amplifier and a resistor. The response test under unit step input and the dynamic stability test for the designed control system were carried out. It was confirmed that the settling time from the response test is about 4 s and the error from the dynamic stability test is less than 0.06% of rated output of torque cell. The designed control system may be used to control a DC generator which may be used to apply torque to a rotating shaft.
