본 논문에서는 새로운 기법의 PWM 발생기를 이용한 저면적, 고효율 SMPS를 제안한다. 제안된 회로에서 PWM의 duty ratio는 pseudo relaxation-oscillation technique를 이용한 PWM 발생기의 내부 커패시터 전압 기울기를 제어하는 방식으로 결정된다. 기존의 SMPS들에 비해, 제안된 제어 방식은 loop bandwidth 보상을 위해 기존의 아날로그 제어방식의 SMPS에서 요구되는 필터회로나 디지털 제어방식의 SMPS에서 요구되는 디지털 compensator가 필요 없기 때문에 단순한 구조로 구성된다. 또한, 제안된 회로는 PWM 발생기의 내부 캐패시터 용량 변화를 통해 1MHz~10MHz까지 스위칭 주파수를 사용자가 선택할 수 있다. 시뮬레이션 수행결과 제안된 SMPS는 10MHz 스위칭 주파수를 선택했을 때 내부회로에서 소모되는 전류는 최대 2.7mA, 파워 Trail을 제외한 전체 시스템의 전류 소모는 15mA였다. 또한, 제안된 SMPS는 시뮬레이션으로 3.3V출력에서 9mV의 최대 리플 전압이 발생하였다. 본 논문에서는 동부하이텍 BCD $0.35{\mu}m$ 공정 파라미터를 이용한 시뮬레이션 및 칩 테스트를 통해 제안된 회로를 검증하였다.

To characterize non-adrenergic non-cholinergic(NANC) nerve mediated contractile responses in circular smooth muscle of bovine reticular groove, we investigated NANC relaxation and contraction induced by electric field stimulation to enteric nerves. In the presence of atropine($1{\mu}M$) and guanethidine($50{\mu}M$), electric field stimulation at frequency of 1 to 16Hz(square pulses, 0.5ms duration, 70V) evoked clear-cut relaxations through stimulations. Transient 'rebound contraction' was occured when the stimulus was switched off. All of the responses (relaxation and rebound contraction) were dose-dependently blocked by Nw-nitro-$_{\small{L}}$-arginine methyl ester(L-NAME), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthesis, and methylene blue, and inhibitor of soluble guanylate cyclase. Tetraethyl ammonium(TEA), a potassium channel blocker, did not block the NANC relaxations.

Purpose: This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback on perceived stress, stress response, immune response and climacteric symptoms, Method: This was a crossover, pre-post test design, The study subjects are 36 middle-aged women who were selected at 2 public health centers, The independent variable was Biofeedback training for 4 weeks, twice a week and home training for 4 weeks, Dependent variables were perceived stress, stress response, immune response, and climacteric symptoms measured with Hildtch's scale (1996), Result: Progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was not effective in reducing perceived stress, but it was shown to be effective in reducing physiological stress responses such as pulse rate and EMG, Though blood pressure and skin conductance were repeatedly down, and skin temperature slowly increased, there were no statistically significant differences. Progressive muscle relaxation training using biofeedback was not effective in reducing serum cortisol, enhancing immune responses, or decreasing climacteric symptoms. Conclusion: The findings point to a pressing need for further, well-controlled and designed research with consideration in selection of subjects and instruments, frequency of measurements, the sampling method, and intervention modalities.

Dielectric studies of methyl acrylate with 1-propanol, 1-butanol, 1-heptanol and 1-octanol binary mixtures have been carried out over the frequency range from 10 MHz to 10 GHz at temperatures of 283, 293, 303 and 313 K using Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR) for various concentrations. The Kirkwood correlation factor and excess inverse relaxation time were determined and discussed to yield information on the molecular structure and dynamics of the mixture. The values of the static dielectric constant, relaxation time and the Kirkwood correlation factor decrease with increased concentration of methyl acrylate in alcohol. The Bruggman plot shows a non-linearity of the curves for all the systems studied indicates the heterointeraction which may be due to hydrogen bonding of the OH group of alcohol with C=O of the methyl acrylate. The excess inverse relaxation time values are negative for all the systems at all the temperatures indicates that the solute-solvent interaction hinders the rotation of the dipoles of the system.

고유전 커패시터의 유전완화 특성은 시간영역에서 나타나는 커패시터의 동적특성으로 이해될 수 있으며 이것은 DRAM의 재충전 시간동안 충전된 전하를 잃어버리는 가장 주된 요인으로 인식된다. 그러므로 DRAM 동작에 미치는 영향을 고려하기 위하여 고유전 커패시터의 유전완화에 대한 등가회로를 만드는 것이 필수적이다. 그러나 아직까지 등가회로를 만들 수 있는 일반적이고 이론적인 방법이 제시되지 않고 있다. 근 본 연구에서는 고유전 커패시터의 등가회로를 주파수 영역에서 모델링하는 새로운 방법을 개발하였다. 이 방법은 이론적인 체계를 갖춘 일반적인 방법이다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 실험과정을 통해서 이 방법의 타당성으로 확인하였고, 궁극적으로 새로운 방법으로 얻어진 등가회로를 활용하여 유전완화가 DRAM 동작에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다.

This study was designed to examine the mechanism of penile erection in adult bull by analyzing the responses of bovine proximal retractor penile muscle strips(BRP) to electtical field stimulation(EFS), exogenous nitric oxide(NO), NO synthesis precursor(L-arginine), NO synthase inhibitors(L-NAME, L-NMMA), guanylate cyclase inhibitor(methylene blue) and nonspecific potassium channel blocker(tetraethylammonium, TEA) treatments. Isometric tension of BRP was measured using physiograph. Results were summarized as follows: 1. EFS of nonadrenergic noncholinrgic(NANC) nerve in BRP produced frequency-dependent inhibitory responses to the contraction induced by co-treatment of epinephrine, guanethidine and atropine. The inhibitory responses to EFS were blocked by tetrodotoxin(TTX, $1{\mu}M$). 2. Treatment of L-NAME ($10,\;20{\mu}M$) inhibited the relaxation to EFS whereas L-NMMA ($100{\mu}M$) had no effect. 3. Treatment of NO($20,\;40{\mu}M$; as an acidified solution of $NaNO_2$) induced concentration-dependent relaxation whereas preincubation of TTX($1{\mu}M$) and L-NAME($20{\mu}M$) had no effect on the relaxation response. 4. L-arginine treatment(10mM) blocked the inhibitory effect of L-NAME($20{\mu}M$). 5. Pretreatment of methylene blue($40{\mu}M$) reduced the NANC-induced relaxation of BRP. 6. Tetraethylammonium(TEA, 80mM) reduced NANC relaxation. These results suggest that NO may act as a NANC neurotransmitter in BRP and the effects might be mediated by cGMP and potassium channel.

In this paper, the dielectric properties of fabricated Polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF, $PVF_2$) thin film with substrate temperature from 30 to at vapor deposition. The dielectric properties of PVDF thin film had been studied in the frequency range from 10Hz to 4MHz at measuring temperature between 20 and $100^{/circ}C$. The anomalous increasing in dielectric constant and dielectric loss at low frequencies and high temperature was described for PVDF thin film containing ion impurities. In particularly, ion mobility of fabricated PVDF thin film at substrate temperature at $30^{/circ}C$ decrease from $2\times10^{-5}\;to\;3.07$\times10^{-7}cm^2/V.s$ On the other hand, ion density increase abruptly from 1.49\times$$10^{13}$ to $1.5\times$10^{16}$cm^{-3}$ In spite of decreasing of ion mobility, dielectric constants and dielectric loss for PVDF thin film increase rapidly with decreasing frequency and high temperature. It was concluded that the dielectric constants and dielectric loss was related to ion density than to ion mobility at low frequency and high temperatures.

Since it has been known that ryanodine has a potent negative inotropic effect on the cardiac muscle contractility (Jenden and Fairhurst, 1968), ryanodine has been a subject of intensive research (Frank and Sleator, 1975; Jones et al, 1978; Sutko et al, 1985). However, the underlying mechanism for the ryanodine dependent negative inotropic effect is still uncertain. In this study, the effects of ryanodine on the generation and relaxation of contracture due to Na-withdrawal and on the force-frequency relationship of heart muscles isolated from rats and guinea pigs were measured in an effort to understand the underlying mechanism of the ryanodine-induced negative inotropy. Results are summerized as follows: 1 ) Ryanodine significantly reduced the contractility of heart muscles produced at low frequency of stimulation, but showed a little effect on the contractility at high frequency stimulation. 2) Ryanodine, at the concentrations ranging from $10^{-6}\;M$ to $10^{-8}\;M$, had no significant effect on the Na-dependent relaxation of Na-withdrawl contracture. 3) Ryandoine significantly reduced the amplitude of the Na-withdrawl contracture, and this inhibitory effect was reinforced by procaine, antiagonized by caffeine and high potassium. From these results, it may be concluded that the negative inotropic effect of ryanodine is mainly due to an inhibition of calcium release from sarcoplasmic reticulum.
