The breakdown voltage in fully depleted SOI N-MOSFET’s have been studied over a wide range of film thicknesses, channel doping, and channel lengths. An asynmmetric Source/Drain SOI technology is proposed, which having the advantages of Normal LDD SOI(Silicon-On-Insulator) for breakdown voltage and gives a high drivability of LDD SOI without sacrificings hot carrier immunity The two-dimensional simulations have been used to investigate the breakdown behavior in these device. It is found that the breakdown voltage(BVds) is almost same with high current drivability as that in Normal LDD SOI device structure.

This paper deals with a $3{\phi}$ rectifier unit for telecommunication system. The rectifier unit is developed to Cope with the step-up of the AC input voltatage from 220V to 380V. By using a buck-type converter in the front-end, it keeps the input power factor high and reduces the voltage ripple in the dc output. It also has a very wide voltage regulation range, which lets the unit be applied for both the 220V and 380V input system. The study includes the power conversion scheme, control strategy, snubber circuit and finally, experimental results.

This paper presents a new voltage current driven method for the synchronous rectifier (SR) in a flyback topology. The proposed synchronous rectfier of voltage-current driven can operate at wide load range with high efficiency. The gate voltage of FET in the synchronous rectifier is easily controlled by resistor ratio. regardless of line and load fluctuation. The 200W (l2V/17A) prototype is built and achiveved efficiency as high as 90% at 4A, 93.2% at 7A and full load.

This paper is concerned with High Frequency, High Voltage Generator for X-ray using zero-voltage soft-switching PWM DC-DC high-power converter by Resonant method, which makes the most of the parastic LC parameters of high-voltage transformer link, for diagnostic X-ray power generator. The converter circuit basically utilizes phase-shift pulse width modulated series Resonant full-bridge PWM DC-DC high-power converter operating at a constant frequency;25kHz. The converter output regulation is digitally controlled using DSP (Digital Signal Processor) for obtaining a fast rising time and adjust output voltage within a wide load range.

The improved transfer functions of the modified Sheppard-Taylor (MS-T) converter, which is capable of regulating output voltage under a wide range of input voltage and load variations, negligible current ripple, and fewer components in comparison to the Sheppard-Taylor (S-T) converter, operating in continuous conduction mode (CCM) are investigated in this study. Its DC equilibrium point, small signal model, and transfer functions are derived and analyzed. Then, the voltage controller is applied for this MS-T converter. The comparisons between the derived model and the existing model are presented. The hardware circuit is designed and the circuit experiments are provided for validation. The results show that the improved transfer functions of the MS-T converter are more effective and general than the previous ones for describing its real characteristics.

This work suggests a study on 5 kW plasma power supply design and reactor capacitance estimation algorithm for a wide range of linear output control to operate a plasma reactor. The suggested study is designed to use a two-stage circuit and control the full-bridge circuit of the two-stage circuit using the buck converter output voltage of the single-stage circuit. The switching frequency of the full-bridge circuit is designed to operate through high-frequency switching and obtain maximum output using LC parallel resonance. Soft switching technique(ZVS) is used to reduce the loss caused by high-frequency switching, and duty control of the buck converter is applied to control a wide range of linear output. The internal capacitance of the reactor cannot easily be extracted, and thus, the reactor cannot be operated in an optimized resonant state. To address this issue, this work designs the internal capacitance of the reactor such that estimations can be performed with the developed reactor capacitance estimation algorithm applied to the internal capacitance of the reactor. A 5 kW plasma power supply is designed for a wide range of linear output control, and the validity of the study on the reactor capacitance estimation algorithm is verified.

The indirect rotor position detection method using terminal voltage of brushless DC motor (BLDCM) requires simple control circuit, and has wide speed range of sensorless operation. However, because the substantial phase difference exists between real back emf and terminal voltage, the existing indirect detection method using analog filter which is affected by frequency, speed, and load sensitively cannot be synchronized with current, in the end, it advances or delays. This paper presents new analog filter circuit design for rotor position estimation in order to solve the problem, and proposes novel sensorless operation method which is stable even in high speed range and not influenced by parameters with analysis on phase difference by load and speed. Moreover, the appropriateness of the proposed sensorless drive in this paper is verified and analyzed by experimentation.

This study deals with a resonant converter of an anti-start air conditioner compressor for commercial vehicles. The anti-start air conditioner compressor must generally have a high current, high efficiency, a low volume, and a low weight. To reduce the switching losses and voltage and current stresses of the device, the anti-start air conditioner compressor applies the full-bridge L-C resonant converter topology. Hardware parameters are designed to have a wide voltage range, and the switching frequency range of the L-C resonant converter is determined. Simulation is implemented using PSIM and an experiment is performed to verify the proposed converter.

This report is the first intermediate report of a series of field test result of large high voltage motors. Major specimens were 3.3/6.6kV class pump motor that was installed and operated for public water service by KOWACO(KOrea WAter resources COperation).

A multi-gap pseudospark is high power switching with a wide dynamical voltage range. The pseudospark system has been operated at the voltage of 5$\sim$20 kV and the pressure range of 35$\sim$80 mtorr. The switching current of the pseudospark switch was measured as 106 kA for 3 gaps. 124 kA for 4 gaps, 120 kA for 5 gaps. The current duration is about 0.9${\mu}s$ in each multi-gap switch. To obtain the characteristics of the switch, this paper describes the results of tests.
