Now normally using a contact method of vehicle Inhibitor Switch that is use direct voltage level signal. This method is good solution for signal deliverly. but The contacted method have a short lifetime because of deterioration of contact surface. so we suggest to non-contacted method using magnetic sensor. The magnetic sensor is used to non-contacted method that is solution for problem of contacted method. In this paper using that of magnetic sensor feature, so we applied to Vehicle Transmitter switch that of non-contacting method. Sensor voltage outputs have variable electric potential that normally 0 mV to 150 mV, and it is depend on Switch Angle. we used two differential sin wave for switching of 5 state signal.

Quad band p-HEMT SP6T switch for handset applications was developed. To achieve the low insertion loss and high isolation, trade-off between "On" state and "Off" state was considered by optimization of unit cell. Especially, in case isolation between transmit port and receive port, it was achieved by large capacitors and miniaturization of chip size was achieved by common voltage control and ground using back via process. Designed SP6T switch has size of $950um{\times}100um$ and take into consideration the gate recess error, excellent loss and isolation was confirmed in operating frequency.

A 120kV/70A high voltage switch has been installed at Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute in Taejon to supply power with Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research (KSTAR) Neutral Beam Injection (NBI) system. NBI system requires fast cutoff of the power supply voltage for protection of the grid when arc detected and fast turn-on the voltage for sustaining the beam current. Therefore the high voltage switch and arc current detection circuit are important part of the NBI power supply and there are much need for high voltage solid state switches in NBI system and a broad area of applications. This switch consisted of 100 series connected MOSFETs and adopted the proposed simple and reliable gate drive circuit without bias supply, Various results taken during the commissioning phase with a 100kW resistive load and NBI source are shown. This paper presents the detailed design of 120kV/70A high voltage MOSFETs switch and simple gate drive circuit. Problems with the high voltage switch and gate driver and solutions are also presented.

A SPST Switch MMIC which used for Microwave Switch Matrix(MSM) of communications satellite payload with multi-beam function has been designed and fabricated. New RE FET switch configuration has been devised to improve power characteristics and isolation. Input and output return losses are better than another switches reported previously for both On and Off states. The MMIC chips were fabricated in 0.15um GaAs pHEMT process and measured insertion loss less than 2.0dB and isolation more than 63dB in the frequency range of 3GHz$\∼$4GHz. Output 3rd order interceptpoint above 32dBm has been recorded and the value is very high even though the unit pHEMT has gate width of 0.2mm and only four pHEMT are used in the MMTC.

AAL2 is an adaptation layer that is supposed to support delay-sensitive applications with low bit-rate, short, variable packet length in a bandwidth-efficient way. For the switching of AAL2 service channels, AAL2 network is needed, which consists of AAL2 switching nodes. In this paper, The architecture of the unit AAL2 switch is proposed and the performance is analyzed in the CDMA environment.

ln this paper, it was reported the developed results of the monitoring unit for 72.5kY GIS which it is one part of the monitoring system for the substation that Korea Railway Company is promoting. In order to monitor the operational status of GIS, four parameters were chosen: the number of times of the circuit breaker switching, tightness of the gas-sealed units (circuit breaker / disconnecting switch / earthing switch), the number of times of the lightning arrestor operating and the leakage current of the lighting arrester. We constructed the monitoring system that can be judged the operating condition of the GIS from the signal of the suitable sensor for the purpose. Therefore, it is possible to on line monitoring for the condition of the GlS without efforts of the Periodic inspection.

With the introduction of high-current 8-inch solar cells, conventional Schottky bypass diodes, usually adopted in photovoltaic (PV) panels to prevent the hot spot phenomenon, are becoming ineffective as they cause relatively high voltage drops with associated undue power consumption. In this paper, we present the architecture of an active circuit that reduces the aforementioned power dissipation by profitably replacing the bypass diode through a power MOS switch with its embedded driving circuitry. Experimental prototypes were fabricated and tested, showing that the proposed solution allows a reduction of the power dissipation by more than 70% compared to conventional Schottky diodes. The whole circuit does not require a dedicated DC power and is fully compatible with standard CMOS technologies. This enables its integration, even directly on the panel, thereby opening new scenarios for next generation PV systems.

A main distributing frame(MDF) is an interface unit that is used to connect office equipment cables in a telephone company to subscriber cables. Until now, there is no automated switching system for MDFs in Korea. Manual handling of an MDF has some drawbacks; It is time-consuming, very cumbersome, and expensive. It also makes maintenance hard. An automated main distributing frame system is proposed and commercialized in Japan. In that system, a robot gripper inserts connecting pins into the cross point holes of a matrix board, which reveals several disadvantages in the aspects of space, maintenance, fault tolerance, and economical efficiency. This paper describes a newly developed robotic switch board system for MDFs. In the developed system, switches are placed at the cross point of a matrix board. There is one robot in between two switch units, so one robot deals with two switch units. In the system, positioning the robot, opening and closing switches can be done by using only a pair of motors and a pair of solenoids. The newly developed system is compact in size, reduces cost, and shows high reliability.
