To achieve high efficiency in high power and high frequency applications, reduction of switching losses and noise is very important. In this paper, an improved zero voltage switching forward dc/dc converter is proposed. The proposed converter is constructed by using energy recovery snubbers in parallel with the main switches and output diodes of the conventional forward dc/dc converter. Due to the use of the energy recovery snubbers in the primary and secondary side, the proposed converter achieves zero-voltage-switching turn-off without switching losses for switching devices and output rectification diodes. The complete operating principles and experimental results will be presented.

There is a noticeable hum from the inverter board of LCD TV when in operation. In this study, we investigate the source and the characteristics of this noise for the inverter board of LCD TV using measurement of vibration and noise. Modal analysis of vibration and noise is visualized for identification of noise sources and transmission vibration. The main source of noise was the transformer of the LCD TV inverter. A noise reduction was achieved by damping the structural elements.

This paper describes a principle of the conducted noise separator which can separate the conducted noise to the common mode and differential mode(normal mode), and presents the transfer characteristics of the separator designed and manufactured. We separated the conducted noise generated from switched mode converter to the CM and DM conducted noise, and also analyzed the source and path of conducted noise in the converter by the conducted noise separator. Since we could easily get the characteristics of the CM and DM conducted noise by the separator, we could efficiently determine the contermeasures for the reduction of the conducted noise and establish the foundation of the systematic procedure for the design of low pass filter.

With the advent of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, modern society uses a diverse pool of devices. In this context, there is increasing interest in removing various kinds of noise arising in data transmission. However, it is difficult to restore image that damaged by mixed noise, and a digital filter that effectively restores an image according to the characteristics of the noise is required. In this paper, we propose a digital switching filter algorithm to remove mixed noise generated during digital image transmission. The proposed algorithm switches the filtering process through noise judgment and reconstructs the image using fuzzy weights and combined weights based on the pixel values inside the mask. To evaluate the proposed algorithm, we compared it with existing filter algorithms through simulation. Filtering results were expanded and compared for visual evaluation, and PSNR comparison was used for quantitative evaluation.

The system stability must be ensured from the switching noise due to the power conversion efficiency and power conversion system miniaturization. Therefore, countermeasures to reduce switching noise during power conversion are essential. Thus, in the previous paper, we constructed the DC / DC Buck Converter circuit using MPQ4432 driver of MPS, and simulated the switching noise characteristics which occurs when the components are arranged differently in the 4 - layer PCB circuit structure with reference plane. In this paper, two different simulated circuits are fabricated and the characteristics of the conducted emission and the radiated emission are analyzed in the same way as the simulation. As a result, it was confirmed that the Conducted Emission characteristic was reduced by 2 ~ 9dB in the low frequency band and 6 ~ 7dB in the high frequency band depending on the configuration of the current return path. And the radiated emission characteristic is reduced by 9 dB. Conducted emission simulation results show that 6 ~ 7dB in the low frequency range and 2 ~ 9dB in the measurement result are somewhat different. In the high frequency band, it is confirmed that the experimental and simulation results are about 7dB. And Radiated Emission confirmed 12dB decrease in simulation, but confirmed decrease of 9dB in measurement result. It is confirmed that there is a slight difference in the amount of reduction, but the design of the power conversion circuit improves the noise characteristics according to the configuration of the current return path.

This paper describes a new method of noise-canceling in an instrumentation using a pair of identical Potential Transformers (PT). This method allows us to get reliable signals without any noise, not only on the transmission line, but also on the sensors; even if we do not have a reference noise or a specific noise. In this case "any noise" means normal mode noise (NMN), under a quarter frequency of the switching. We proposed to call this method alternating noise-canceling (ANC). The accuracy of this new method has been verified by experimentations.entations.

The power conversion system must be increased switching frequency in order to achieve a small size, a light weight and a low noise. This paper proposes a skillful and a concise PWM DC-DC converter employing both zero voltage and zero current high frequency switching(ZVCS) operation. The Proposal ZVCS circuit is composed with resonant circuit using active resonant condenser. And this circuit provides switches with ZVS and ZCS by quasi resonant only that switching transients appear. This operation results in reduction of stress and losses in the power devices and resonant components. Some simulation results are included to confirm the validity of the analytical results.

A new suboptimal PWM is proposed, intended particularly for the reduction of acoustic noise and harmonics of the output current in the inverter-fed induction motor drive system. This strategy is based of the Regular PWM and applied optimal techniqe. And it could solve a problem that computation time is very much when switching strategy is determined at the Optimal PWM. In case that the number of switching increases infinitely, this strategy could determine the switching pattern, and can realize Online, Real time of microprocessor. Also, this strategy is applied to 1(Hp), three phase induction motor, and compared with the other PWMs. From the results, the validity of this strategy could be verified.

This paper describes a low noise and high efficiency analog-digital switching mixed mode battery charger for production facilities of Li-Ion batteries. The requirements for battery chargers for production facilities are very strict. The accuracy of output voltage and output current should be below 0.1% with very low ripple current. Therefore analog type linear regulators are widely used for battery charger in spite of their inefficiency and bulkiness. We combined linear regulator as a voltage source with digital switching converter as a dependent current source. Low current ripple and high accuracy are obtained by linear regulator while high efficiency is achieved by digital switching converter. Experimental results show that proposed method has 0.1% ripple and 90% efficiency at an output current of 1A for a battery voltage of 4V.
