Super-junction trench MOSFET (SJ TMOSFET) devices are well known for lower specific on-resistance and high breakdown voltage (BV). For a conventional power MOSFET (metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor) such as trench double-diffused MOSFET (TDMOSFET), there is a tradeoff relationship between specific on-state resistance and breakdown voltage. In order to overcome the tradeoff relationship, a SJ TMOSFET structure is suggested, but sensing the temperature distribution of TMOSFET is very important in the application since heat is generated in the junction area affecting TMOSFET. In this paper, analyzing the temperature characteristics for different number bonding for SJ TMOSFET with an embedded temperature sensor is carried out after designing the diode temperature sensor at the surface of SJ TMOSFET for the class of 100 V and 100 A for a BLDC motor.

The objective of this paper is to propose a new velocity measurement method for an electro-mechanical fin actuator. The model of the electro-mechanical fin actuator includes uncertainties such as unknown disturbances and parameter variations in flight condition. So, an electro-mechanical fin actuator system needs robust control algorithm which requires not only position information but also velocity information. Usually, analog tachometers have been used for velocity feedback in an electro-mechanical fin actuator. However, using these types of sensors have problems such as the cost, space, and malfunction. These problems lead to propose a new velocity measurement method using linear type Hall-effect sensor. In order to verify the proposed method, several experiments are performed using Model Following Sliding Mode Controller(MFSMC). It is shown that the MFSMC with a new velocity measurement method using linear type Hall-effect sensor can satisfy the requirements without using of velocity sensor.

In this paper, a magnetic suspension system with inductive sensors fur a high vacuum turbomolecular pump(TMP) is discussed. The performance of designed inductive position sensor is evaluated by static and dynamic test, and the test results show sensitivity of about 6,000 V/m and dynamic bandwidth of 750 ㎐. The protype of magnetic suspension system is designed and constructed with 5-axis magnetic bearing, inductive sensor and BLDC internal motor. With DSP based digital PID control system, the prototype is examined its high damping ratio and stable operation up to 20,000 rpm of rotation.

For the conventional power metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) device structure, there exists a tradeoff relationship between specific on-resistance ($R_{ON.SP}$) and breakdown voltage ($V_{BR}$). In order to overcome the tradeoff relationship, a uniform super-junction (SJ) trench metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (TMOSFET) structure is studied and designed. The structure modeling considering doping concentrations is performed, and the distributions at breakdown voltages and the electric fields in a SJ TMOSFET are analyzed. The simulations are successfully optimized by the using of the SILVACO TCAD 2D device simulator, Atlas. In this paper, the specific on-resistance of the SJ TMOSFET is successfully obtained 0.96 $m{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$, which is of lesser value than the required one of 1.2 $m{\Omega}{\cdot}cm^2$ at the class of 100 V and 100 A for BLDC motor.

Variable structure control law is well known to be a robust control algorithm and evolution strategy is used as an effective search algorithm in optimization problems. In this paper, we propose a variable structure controller with time-varying switching surface. We calculate the maximum value of seitching surface gradient that is of the 3rd order polynomial form. Evolution strategy is used to optimize the parameters of the switching surface gradient. Finally, the proposed method is applied to position tracking control for BLDC motor. Experimental results show that the proposed method is more useful than the conventional variable structure controller.

This study shows the conformance-based design results of a fourth-order dynamic actuator showing a performance variation caused by variation in the components as well as aero-induced disturbances. The actuator comprises a BLDC motor, spur gear and worm gear assembly, and canard. The actuator performance was evaluated by using time-variant angle information of the canard. Based on the response surface models, critical system variables were screened using F-tests, and then, the performance was approximated as a function of the variables because it is difficult to determine the performance of a high-order dynamic system as a function of system variables through analytical approaches. In this study, the conformance of uncertain performance to the specification was defined as a probability measure. The design variables obtained by optimizing the measure can provide actuator performance conforming to the specifications considered, even though there is a variation in both the components and the aero-induced disturbances.

Recently, it is increased to apply the inverter system to household electrical appliances, especially in the air c conditioners, refrigerators and washing machines, to reduce the power consumption and the acoustic noise by t the low speed operation, and to make their functions more comfortable for human beings. For the inverter s systems, however, it is highly required to reduce the undesirable electromagnetic noise and psychoacoustic n noise generated by PWM for variable speed operation. In this paper, the electromagnetic noise for the d detenninistic PWM and random PWM for the reciprocating compressors driven by the brusWess dc motor was a analyzed. It was also verified through the experiment that the elt'Ct$\tau$omagnetic noise was reduced and the s sound quality was improved by applying the random PWM.

Reference models are used in many control algorithms for improvement of transient response characteristics. They provide desired trajectories that the plant should follow. Most control systems have bounded control inputs to avoid saturation of the plant. If we design reference models that do not account for limits of control inputs, control performance of the system may be deteriorated. In this paper, therefore, the way of determining variable reference models for TDC(time delay control) technique is proposed. The variable reference model is determined based on the information of bounded control inputs and reference inputs. This proposed method is also verified by application to the position control experiment using the BLDC motor.

In this paper, a new current control algorithm is proposed for four-switch three-phase brushless DC(BLU) motor drives, which are suitable for low cost applications. A current reference generation scheme is developed and Implemented to obtain high performance characteristics in the four-switch system, such as small torque ripple and fast dynamic speed/torque response. Moreover, the proposed scheme can successful1y eliminate the torque ripple during commutations, so that it can be expected that the four-switch system can be much more practically applied for the industrial application areas.
