The DC Servo Motor has been used as an actuator in automatic control fields because of the good response and the control easiness nevertheless it has some disadvantage such as spark at the brush. Recently, along with the fast development of semiconductor industries, the digital control scheme is increasing in comparison with analog control because of the strength against noise and the accuracy. In this paper, authors proposed a combined control algorithm, which is mixed Modified Minimum Time Position Control(MMTPC) and PI control algorithm. for minimum time position control of DC Servo Motor by the one-chip microcontroller. The proposed control algorithm showed the fast response and offset-free. The validity of the proposed method comparing with the VSS control is proved by the response experiments.

There is an opinion of regarding a simple fuzzy logic controller as a kind of Variable Structure Controller in recent years. The opinion may provide an analytical basis which describes the robustness to uncertainty and the stability of a fuzzy logic controller. So in this paper, a fuzzy logic controller based on the Variable Structure System with is designed for a robot manipulator which is a class of complex, nonlinear system with uncertainty. Fuzzy control rules, membership shape of the I/O variables of the fuzzy logic controller are designed for guaranteeing the stability of an overall control system. From a computer simulation of dynamic control of a two link robot manipulator, the design procedure of the fuzzy logic controller is validated.

There have been several control schemes for the single input systems with unmeasurable state variables using variable structure control(VSC) theory. However, each of them is a study on the systems which can be represented in the phase canonical form or non-phase canonical form dynamic equation separately. As these control algorithms have difficulties in practical application by its theoretical limitations, in this paper we propose a new VSC theory which overcomes those limitations, in this paper we propose a new VSC theory which overcomes those limitations of proposed schemes. This new control scheme can be realized for the general linear systems which have unmeasurable state variables. And the switching function of this VSS algorithm consists of measurable state variable function(reduced-order switching function) and its derivatives. Also in the construction of control imput only measurable state variables are used.

We have investigated the electrical characteristics of SCR(Silicon Controlled Rectifier)-based ESD power clamp circuit with high holding voltage and dual-directional ESD protection cells for a whole-chip ESD protection. The measurement results indicate that the dimension of n/p-well and p-drift has a great effect on holding voltage (2V-5V). Also A dual-directional ESD protection circuit is designed for I/O ESD protection application. The trigger voltage and the holding voltage are measured to 5V and 3V respectively. In comparison with typical ESD protection schemes for whole-chip ESD protection, this ESD protection device can provide an effective protection for ICs against ESD pulses in the two opposite directions, so this design scheme for whole-chip ESD protection can be discharged in ESD-stress mode (PD, ND, PS, NS) as well as VDD-VSS mode. Finally, a whole-chip ESD protection can be applied to 2.5~3.3V VDD applications. The robustness of the novel ESD protection cells are measured to HBM 8kV and MM 400V.

This paper proposes an adaptive moving average (A-MA) control chart with variable sampling intervals (VSI) for detecting shifts in the process mean. The basic idea of the VSI A-MA chart is to adjust sampling intervals as well as to accumulate previous samples selectively in order to increase the sensitivity. The VSI A-MA chart employs a threshold limit to determine whether or not to increase sampling rate as well as to accumulate previous samples. If a standardized control statistic falls outside the threshold limit, the next sample is taken with higher sampling rate and is accumulated to calculate the next control statistic. If the control statistic falls within the threshold limit, the next sample is taken with lower sampling rate and only the sample is used to get the control statistic. The VSI A-MA chart produces an 'out-of-control' signal either when any control statistic falls outside the control limit or when L-consecutive control statistics fall outside the threshold limit. The control length L is introduced to prevent small mean shifts from being undetected for a long period. A Markov chain model is employed to investigate the VSI A-MA sampling process. Formulae related to the steady state average time-to signal (ATS) for an in-control state and out-of-control state are derived in closed forms. A statistical design procedure for the VSI A-MA chart is proposed. Comparative studies show that the proposed VSI A-MA chart is uniformly superior to the adaptive Cumulative sum (CUSUM) chart and to the Exponentially Weighted Moving Average (EWMA) chart, and is comparable to the variable sampling size (VSS) VSI EWMA chart with respect to the ATS performance.

In this paper, we design an 8-bit eSuse OTP (one-time programmable) memory in consideration of EM (electro-migration) and eFuse resistance variation based on a $0.18{\mu}m$ generic process, which is used for an analog trimming application. First, we use an external program voltage to increase the program power applied an eFuse. Secondly, we apply a scheme of precharging BL to VSS prior to RWL (read word line) activation and optimize read NMOS transistors to reduce the read current flowing through a non-programmed cell. Thirdly, we design a sensing margin test circuit with a variable pull-up load out of consideration for the eFuse resistance variation of a programmed eFuse. Finally, we increase program yield of eFuse OTP memory by splitting the length of an eFuse link.

In this paper, the equalizer techniques that is able to adopt the digital on-channel repeater for 8VSB-based DTV system has been analyzed and we propose an effective equalizer structure which can reduce the error propagation phenomenon by the feedback signal and improve the receiver performance at the same time. In order to confirm the effective cancellation of the feedback signal, the multi-level Correlation LMS scheme is proposed through the analysis of conventional basic LMS based DFE and Correlation LMS algorithm and as compared with the conventional method, we can confirm the reduction of error propagation. When performing the computer simulation, as the Brazil channel model which is very popular for DTV broadcasting system is adopted, the result is drawn by comparing and analysing the equalizer algorithm. We have examine the symbol error rate which is in the range of 15~25dB of operation receipt SNR and MSE(Mean Square Error) in the DTV broadcasting system. As a result of comparing with the existing method, the signal-noise ratio which is necessary for maintain the bit error correction ability that the means of proposal is same is reduced by about 2~5dB, and in the rate of convergence through the MSE, we found the reduction of needed time.
