Reduced surface field lateral double-diffused MOS transistor for the driving circuits of plasma display panel and field emission display in the 120V region have been integrated for the first time into a low-voltage $1.2{\mu}m$ analog CMOS process using p-type bulk silicon. This method of integration provides an excellent way of achieving both high power and low voltage functions on the same chip; it reduces the number of mask layers double-diffused MOS transistor with a drift length of $6.0{\mu}m$ and a breakdown voltage greater than 150V was self-isolated to the low voltage CMOS ICs. The measured specific on-resistance of the lateral double-diffused MOS in $4.8m{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ at a gate voltage of 5V.

A low power 6-bit flash ADC that uses an input voltage range detection algorithm is described. An input voltage level detector circuit has been designed to overcome the disadvantages of the flash ADC which consume most of the dynamic power dissipation due to comparators array. In this work, four digital input voltage range detectors are employed and each input voltage range detector generates the specific clock signal only if the input voltage falls between two adjacent reference voltages applied to the detector. The specific clock signal generated by the detector is applied to turn the corresponding latched comparators on and the rest of the comparators off. This ADC consumes 68.82 mW with a single power supply of 1.2V and achieves 4.3 effective number of bits for input frequency up to 1 MHz at 500 MS/s. Therefore it results in 4.6 pJ/step of Figure of Merit (FoM). The chip is fabricated in 0.13-um CMOS process.

In order to accurately measure the high voltage of 22.9[kV] power distribution lines, we investigated the temperature dependence of measuring voltage for single element and stack elements(22, 44, 66 layers, respectively). When one line voltage is 13, 20O[V], the error of measuring voltage with temperature(-25[$^{\circ}C$]~50[$^{\circ}C$]) was decreased with increasing of stack number and stack element with 66 layers was the least error of ${\pm}0.87%$.

The series-connected semiconductor devices structure is one way to achieve a high voltage rating. However, a problem with voltage imbalance exists in which different voltages are applied to the series-connected switches. This paper proposed a new voltage balancing technique that controls the turn-off delay time of the switch by adding one bipolar junction transistor to the gate turn-off path. The validity of the proposed method is proved through simulation and experiment. The proposed active gate driver not only enables voltage balancing across a variety of current ranges but also has a greater voltage balancing performance compared with conventional RC snubber methods.

The four-leg Voltage Source Converter(VSC) can use the DC link voltage effectively by the 3-D SVPWM method. Hence the DC battery voltage can be reduced by $15\%$ in comparison to that of the conventional line-interactive UPS system. In this paper a novel line interactive Uninterruptible Power Supply(UPS) using the two four-leg VSCs is proposed. One VSC is in parallel with the ac link reactor of the power source side, and the other is in series with the load. The parallel four-leg voltage source inverter controls the three-phase line voltage independently in order to control the line reactor current indirectly. It eliminates the neutral line current and the active ripple power of the source side using the pqr theory so that unity power factor and the sinusoidal source current can be achieved even though both the source and the load voltages have zero sequence components. The series four-leg voltage source inverter compensates the line voltage and allows it to be balanced and harmonic-free. Both of the parallel and series four-leg voltage source inverters always act as independently controllable voltage sources, so that the three-phase output voltage shows a seamless transition to the backup mode. The feasibility of the proposed UPS system has been investigated and verified through computer simulations results.

We report on low-voltage pentacene TFTs with a Al2O3/OTS as a gate dielectric. Improving device characteristics, we performed chemical modification of self-grown Al2O3 surface with an octadecyltrichlorosilane(OTS) self-assembled monolayer(SAM). As the result of this combination, the mobility was improved from 0.3 to $0.45\;cm^2/Vs$. In addition, we examined that the SAM dipole electric field have an influence on gate leakage current, transfer and output characteristics.

As a part of electro-mechanical totally implantable artificial heart, a transcutaneous energy transmission system has been developed. By mutual magnetic induction between the first coil on the skin and the subcutaneously implanted second coil, the system transfers electrical power through the skin. This research aimed a minimizing the size of the implanted part as well as maximizing the transfer efficiency. When an air gap is 1$\sim$2cm, voltage gain and current gain low and it is hard to transfer energy due to large leakage flux. That is, the required input voltage and input current must be large compared with the output voltage and output current, respectively, This paper research the inverter topology and the control method in order to increase the voltage gain and the current gain. For this purpose, this inverter employs double tune to compensate the large leakage inductance of primary and secondary of the transcutaneous transformer. And the output energy of transcutaneous energy transmission system supply for Lithium-ion battery charger.

백열전구를 대체하기위한 친환경 에너지 절약형 7w급 LED 램프의 구동을 위한 전원장치를 설계하였다. LED 램프는 칩 LED를 여러개 직 병렬로 연결하여 사용하게 되므로 적합한 직류 전압과 전류를 공급하여야 한다. 그런데 LED 램프는 상용 AC 220V 전원에 직접 연결해 사용하게 되므로 드라이버에는 전압제어와 전류제어가 포함된 AC/DC, DC/DC 전력변환기가 반드시 필요하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 램프의 LED 열에 따라 출력전압과 전류제어가 가능하며 변압기가 없는 간단한 구조의 LED 램프 드라이버를 설계하였다.

Driving the electrodeless fluorescent lamp, the high ac voltage with high frequency is required. The linear power amplifier has been widely used as a driving circuit of electrodeless fluorescent lamp. However, the low efficiency of the power amplifier causes the driving circuit to be replaced by a PWM switching inverter. In order to use a PWM switching inverter as the driving circuit of an electrodeless fluorescent lamp, the high switching frequency is required. But due to the switching loss at switches of the inverter, the limitation of high switching frequency appears in the inverter. One solution to this limitation is to reduce the switching loss by using the zero voltage switching technique. In this paper, zero voltage switching resonant inverter for driving an electrodeless fluorescent lamp is discussed. The results of analysis about the inverter are presented and the equations for design are established. And the validity of the analyzed results are verified through the experiment.

This paper proposes a control strategy based on the frequency detection method, comprising a current control and a feed-forward voltage control loop, is proposed for grid-interactive power conditioning systems (PCS). For continuous provision of power to critical loads, PCS should be able to check grid outages instantaneously. Hence, proposed in the present paper are a frequency detection method for detecting abnormal grid conditions and a controller, which consists of a current controller and a feedforward voltage controller, for different operation modes. The frequency detection method can detect abnormal grid conditions accurately and quickly. The controller which has current and voltage control loops rapidly helps in load voltage regulation when grid fault occurs by changing reference and control modes. The proposed seamless transfer control strategy is confirmed by experimental results.
