In this paper, interface circuits that are suitable for point-to-point interconnection with an over 1 Gbps data rate per pin are proposed. To achieve a successful data transfer rate of multi-gigabits per-second between two chips with a point-to-point interconnection, the input receiver uses an on-chip parallel terminator of the pass gate style, while the output driver uses the pullup and pulldown transistors of the diode-connected style. In addition, the novel dynamic voltage level converter (DVLC) has solved such problems as the access time increase and valid data window reduction. These schemes were adopted on a 64 Mb DDR SRAM with a 1.5 Gbps data rate per pin and fabricated using a 0.10 ${\mu}m$ dual gate oxide CMOS technology.

In this paper, we propose a new level shifter circuit for reducing power consumption. The concept of the proposed level shifter is to use capacitive coupling effect to reduce short circuit current. The power consumption of the proposed level shifter is reduced up to 50%, compared to the conventional level shifter. Especially the proposed level shifter circuit works well with low temperature poly-Si (LTPS) TFTs. It can operate on low input voltage even with low-mobility, high and widely-varying threshold voltage of LTPS TFT.

The photovoltaic power generation system has a great future as clean energy instead of fossil fuel, which has many environmental problems such as exhausted gas or air pollution. In a utility interactive photovoltaic generation system, a three phase inverter is used for the connection between the photovoltaic array and the utility. This paper presents a three phase inverter for photovoltaic power system with current controller, voltage controller, PLL control system and the phase detector of interactive voltage by using dq transformation. The proposed inverter system provides a sinusoidal ac current for domestic loads and the utility line with unity power factor.

In this paper, a new self-oscillated type high voltage charger controller circuit is proposed, which has variable constant current source characteristics to improve charge characteristic of charger roller. The proposed control method enables high quality printing characteristics regardless of the circumstance change such as ambient temperature or humidity by changing the current reference signal. To verify the proposed control method various experiments are performed.

This paper presents the fabrication and field emission of carbon nanotube field emitters for a micro mass spectrometer. The carbon nanotube is an adequate material as a field emitter since it has good characteristics. We have successfully fabricated a diode field emitter and a triode field emitter. Each field emitter has been constructed using several micromachining processes and a thermal CVD process. In the case of the diode field emitter, to increase the electric field, the carbon nanotubes are selectively grown on the patterned nickel catalyst layer. The electron current of the diode field emitter is 73.2 ${\mu}A$ when the anode voltage is 1100V. That of the triode field emitter is 3.4 pA when the anode voltage is 1000V.

A new DC-DC converter was designed for gate driver circuit using low temperature poly-Si TFT technology. To achieve high efficiency and small area, we proposed a cross-coupled type DC-DC converter which converts 5V of input voltage to 9V of output voltage and supplies 120$\mu$A of current to load. Its efficiency is 92.9% and the area is reduced as much as 19% compared to the previously reported latch type DC-DC converter.

590MPa grade weldable steels were gas metal arc welded with flux cored wires. Welding parameters such as current, voltage, and speed were varied independently. Effects of each parameter on the strength and chemical composition of weld metal were investigated. Increase of voltage caused decrease of weld metal tensile strength due to the low recovery of alloying elements such as carbon and manganese. On the contrary, increase of current and speed resulted in increase of weld metal strength because of higher recovery of the alloying elements.

The attenuation of millimeter waves (70-100 ㎓) propagating along Josephson Junction stripline had been measured by pattern recognition near gap voltage and proximity current bump. Test series arrays of 2000, 3000, and 4000 Josephson junctions with the area of $12\mu\textrm{m}$$\times$ $38\mu\textrm{m}$ had two sub-arrays with 50 Junctions at both ends. The arrays were fabricated with and without applying a plasma nitridation process to Nb ground plane. The effects of a nitridationprocess measured by the pattern recognition near gap voltage and proximity current bump were about 1.3-1.7 ㏈ and 1.6-1.8 ㏈, respectively. This means that the last sub-arrays with a nitridation process receive 26-34% more power than those without a nitridation process.

An energy recovery sustaining driver with zero current switching to reduce switching losses and EMI is presented in this paper. The driver with designed snubber circuits reduces ringing voltage significantly on PDP so that the voltage rating of MOSFETs can be lower as well to reduce the cost of switches.

The Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) with full bridge cells is available for utility interactive inverter in high voltage line.
