The transformer is fabricated with two piezoelectric vibrator with the divided electrodes and adhesive insulator. We applied the electric input to the driving vibrator in parallel and connect the output voltage to the generating vibrator in series to the resistor load near its fundamental resonance frequency. Then we investigate output voltage in series twice as large as in parallal. Moreover we investigate the load characteristics at resonance frequencies under various resistor and the frequency characteristics near the resonance frequency under no load. Its equvalent circuit is derived from the Mason's model of a thickness-driven piezelectric vibrator. By its equevalent circuit, symbolic expressions for input impedances, voltage ratios, resonance frequencies, and bandwidths have been derived. The values calculated from those symbolic exprssions are shown to agree well with the measurement values.

In order to solve the problem of system efficiency reduced on account of two stage power conversion, we propose a series resonant full bridge Inverter circuit for battery-fed microwave oven. This circuit has both a compact size and a light weight comparing with the conventional HVT(High Voltage Transformer) method. Also, it may be adjusted power levels of the microwave oven by a frequency control. In this paper, operational principles are explained in detail in order to understand the circuit operation. Also, a proto-type Inverter circuit with 1[kW] Power consumption is built and tested for verifying the operation.

Multiple output converters (MOCs) are widely used for applications which require various kinds of the output voltages due to its advantages in cost, volume, and efficiency. However, most of the MOCs developed so far can regulate only one output tightly and require as many secondary windings in the transformer as the number of the outputs. In this paper, a novel Time Division Multiple Control (TDMC) method to regulate all the outputs in high precision is proposed and applied to the double ended forward converter for the multiple battery charger. Additional benefit of the proposed topology is to require only one secondary winding in the transformer for all the outputs. The proposed converter can charge two different kinds of batteries or same kind of batteries in different state of charges (SOCs) by CC/CV mode independently with the even degree of tight regulation, thereby satisfying the ripple requirements for each battery.

In this paper, a new method for reducing harmonic in input AC line currents of converter presents, which is the multi-pulse converter circuit without the input transformer. This system can reduce the harmonic like conventional 12-pulse converter. Both the bridge circuits are controlled with the shifted firing angle and connected 2 tap inter-phase reactor. Using 2 tap changing on inter-phase reactor, the input current is controlled with the different two values in order to make the input current waveform 12 pulses.

The new structure method of GaAs microwave amplifiers using DC block function and impedance transforming property of DC block/transformer(non-symmetrical two - microstrip coupled line and interdigital three - microstrip coupled line), instead of chip capacitor, is presented. The newly structured microwave amplifier showed wideband characteristics(bandwidth, 3.5 GHz) and flat frequency response. Interdigital three - microstrip coupled line which is used for microwave amplifier can be used to match amplifiers as well as DC blocking.

An active clamp forward converter is proper for minimization and basically makes high efficiency of the system because of soft switching type. Especially, when applied to forward converter, it widens the control range of duty ratio and is suitable for high input voltage. In other hand, the current doubler has high utility efficiency of transformer and reduces output current ripple because it always transfers the power through the transformer and has two inductor with opposite slope. So, this paper explained the conduction mode of an active clamp forward converter with the current doubler rectifier.

This paper describes an AC voltage regulator using AC chopper and auxiliary transformer which is series connected with main input. It has many advantages such as fast voltage control, high efficiency and low THD. A detail study of step down AC voltage regulator is described and two kinds of novel step-up/down voltage regulator for AVR are proposed. The operation principle and PWM method of the proposed regulator are described. Experimental results show that it can be used as AC voltage regulator for special purpose very efficiently.

In this paper, the superposition of ultrasonic signals which were generated by multi-source in a transformer was presented. For analysis of ultrasonic superposition, V$_{peak-peak}$ and pulse number of ultra-sonic signal were used. As a result, the wave form of ultrasonic superposition was classified into three types ; First type was the wave form whose V$_{peak-peak}$ was increased by the superposition of each signal's V$_{peak-peak}$. Second type was wave form whose V$_{peak-peak}$ was decreased by the superposition of each signal's V$_{peak-peak}$. And the other type was wave form whose peals were two or mere. And V$_{peak-peak}$ of superposed ultrasonic wave wads mostlv increased or decreased and pulse number of supe게osed u1trasonic wave was mostly increased.y increased.

This paper presents a Bidirectional High-Frequency Link (BHFL) inverter that utilizes the Deadbeat controller. The main features of this topology are the reduced size of the inverter and fewer power switches. On the secondary side of the transformer, the active rectifier employs only two power switches, thus reducing switching losses. Using this configuration, the inverter is capable of carrying a bidirectional power flow. The inverter is controlled by a Deadbeat controller, which consists of the inner current loop, outer voltage loop and a feedforward controller. Additional disturbance decoupling networks are employed to improve the system's robustness towards load variations. A 1-kVA prototype inverter has been constructed and the Deadbeat control algorithm is experimentally verified. The experimental results show that the inverter has high efficiency (91%) with low steady state output voltage total harmonics distortion (1.5%).

This paper describes a novel structure for single phase Unified Power Quality Conditioner-Distributed Generation (UPQC-DG) with direct grid connected DC-AC converter for low DC output DG systems which can be used not only for compensation of power quality problems but also for supplying of load power partly. This converter has been composed of one full-bridge inverter, one three winding high frequency transformer with galvanic isolation and two cycloconverters. Proper control based on Input Output feedback Linearization is used to tracking the reference signals. The simulation and experimental results are presented to confirm the validity of the proposed approach.
