In this paper, a novel active boost converter for SR drive is proposed. An active capacitor circuit is added in the front-end. Based on this active capacitor network, when boost switch turns off, this network seems as passive capacitor network. And the voltage of boost capacitor can keep balance with dc-link voltage automatically. In the capacitor network, discharging voltage is general dc-link voltage in parallel-connected capacitors; charging voltage is double dc-link voltage in series-connected capacitors. When boost switch turns on, two capacitors are connected in series, and discharging voltage is up to double dc-link voltage. So the fast excitation current can be obtained from this mode. Profit from fast excitation and fast demagnetization mode, the performance and output power can be improved. Some computer simulations are done to verify the performance of proposed converter.

Polysilicon capacitors with pyrogenic oxide and TEOX oxide as insulators were fabricated to develop capacitors which can be applied to analog CMOS IC, and the characteristics of the capacitors were compared with each other. The morphology of bottom polysilicon in pyrogenic oxide capacitor is degraded due to the generaged protuberances of the polysilicon grain during oxidataion. The polysilican capacitor with pyrogenic oxide of 57 nm thickness showed that the effective potential barrier height of 0.45 eV is much less than that of MOS capacitor (3.2 eV)when the top electrode is biased with a positive volgate. The morphology of the polysilicon capacitor with TEOS oxide, however, was not degraded during oxide deposition by LPCVD. The polysilicon capacitor with TEOS oxide of 54 nm thickness showed the effective potential barrier height of 1.28 eV when the top electrode is biased with a negative voltage. Therefore, it is concluded that the polysilicon capacitor with TEOS oxide is more applicable to analog CMOS IC than the pyrogenic oxide polysilicon capacitor.

Circuit configurations for realizing of biquadratic current transfer functions using current conveyors (CCIIs) are presented. The circuits are composed of three multiple-output CCIIs and four passive elements (two resistors and two grounded capacitors), and when current controlled conveyors (CCIIs) in place of CCIIs are employed, the circuit can be realized using three multiple-output CCIIs and two grounded capacitors. Use of grounded capacitors is suitable for integrated implementation. The cutoff frequency of a realized filter with current gain K can be tuned independently of Q by the value of K.

In this paper, The electrical properties of MOS capacitors and transistoras with gate of in-situ doped amorphous Si and poly Si doped by POCI$_3$. Under constant current F-N stress, MOS capacitors with in-situ doped amorphous Si gate have shown the best resistance to degradation in reliabilty properties such as increase of leakage current, shift of gate voltage (V$_{g}$). shift of flat band voltage (V$_{fb}$) and charge to breakdown(Q$_{bd}$). Also, MOSFETs with in-situ doped amorphous Si gate have shown to have less degradation in transistor properties such as threshold voltage, transconductance and drain current. These improvements observed in MOS devices with in-situ doped amorphous Si gate is attributed to less local thinning spots at the gate/SiO$_2$ interface, caused by the large grain size and the smoothness of the surface at the gate/SiO$_2$ interface.

Ionic liquids based on l-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium cation $(EMI^+)$ and inorganic or organic anions containing fluorine atoms were applied to electrolyte materials for double-layer capacitors. The double-layer capacitors composed of a pair of activated carbon electrodes and an ionic liquid selected from $EMIBF_4,\; EMINbF_6,\;EMITaF_6,\;EMICF_3SO_3,\;EMI(CF_3SO_2)_2N,\;and\;EMI(C_2F_5SO_2)_2N$ showed inferior low-temperature characteristics to those of a conventional nonaqueous electrolyte based on propylene carbonate (PC) solvent. On the other hand, the capacitor using $EMIF{\cdot}2.3HF$ showed excellent low-temperature characteristics due to its high conductivity at low temperatures, however, it had a lower working voltage $(\~2V)$ than the conventional nonaqueous counterpart $(\~3V)$.

A new third harmonic injection circuit for light-emitting diode (LED) drivers is proposed to eliminate electrolytic capacitors and thereby extend the lifetime of LED drivers. When a third harmonic current is injected to the input current of the LED driver, the required capacitance of the driver can be reduced. The proposed circuit can control an injection ratio and has simple circuitry. The synchronous third harmonic is generated by a phase locked loop (PLL), a 1/3 counter, and op-amps and applied to a power factor correction circuit. Thus, the storage capacitor can install film capacitors instead of the electrolytic capacitor. The value of storage capacitance can be reduced to 78% compared to an input power factor of 100%. The proposed circuit is applied to the 80W prototype LED driver to experimentally verify the performances.

A capacitor deterioration of LCL-filter grid-connected PWM converters is progressed by the self-healing mechanism. It leads to the degradation of the filter performance and drop of power factor. Thus, it is required to diagnose fault-point of capacitors and determine the replacement time. Typically, the fault of capacitors is determined when the capacitance is reduced up to 80% from initial value. This paper proposes algorithm to the determine capacitor replacement time of an LCL filter. The algorithm takes the advantage of change of the response on the injected resonant frequency corresponding to 80% value from the initial capacitance. The results of the algorithm are demonstrated through simulations and experiments.

In this paper, a single-phase multifunctional onboard battery charger with small DC-link capacitors is proposed, where the low-voltage battery charger is utilized as an active power filter to mitigate the inherent second-order ripple power when the high-voltage (HV) battery is charged from the grid. In this scheme, the large DC-link electrolytic capacitors of the HV battery charger can be eliminated without additional switches, leading to the reduction of cost and volume of the onboard battery charger. The validity of the proposed topology has been verified by the simulation results.

This paper presents a new method to derive energy function based on vector product. Using this method, an energy function to consider transfer conductances and capacitors is derived. Then we recommend a voltage collapse criteria to predict the voltage collapse in power systems by using the energy margin derived by the proposed energy function. This energy function is applied to a 2-bus power system reflecting transfer conductances and capacitors. We show that the energy function derived based on vector product can be applied in order to analyze power system stability and the energy margin can be utilized as a criterion of voltage collapse by simulation for the 2-bus system.
