In this work, small-size, high-performance solenoid-type RF chip inductors utilizing a low-loss Al$_2$O$_3$core material were investigated. The size of the chip inductors fabricated in this work were 15$\times$10$\times$0.7㎣, 2.1$\times$1.5$\times$10㎣, and 2.4$\times$2.0$\times$1.4㎣ and copper (Cu) wire with 40 ㎛ diameter was used as the coils. High frequency characteristics of the inductance, quality factor, and impedance of developed inductors were measured suing an RF Impedance/Material Analyzer (HP4291B with HP16193A test fixture). It was observed that the developed inductors with the number of turns of 7 have the inductance of 33 to 100nH and exhibit the self-resonant frequency (SRF) of .26 to 1.1 GHz. The SRF of inductors decreases with increasing the inductance and the inductors have the quality factor of 60 to 80 in the frequency range of 300 MHz to 1.1 GHz. In this study, small-size solenoid-type RF chip inductors with high inductance and high quality factor were fabricated successfully. It is suggested that the thin film-type inductor is necessary to fabricate the smaller size inductors at the expence of inductance and quality factor values.

This paper proposes a new inductance minimization scheme for a gradient system of arbitrarily selected shape. Although it is important to minimize the gradient coil inductance to reduce the current switching time, such minimization has been possible only for cylindrical or parallel biplanar coils. By using small current loops on arbitrarily selected surface as optimization elements, the inductance of the whole circuit can be minimized using the loop's self- and mutual-inductances. Wire positions can be easily derived from the loop current distribution. Preliminary studies for the design of x-directional surface gradient coil show the utility of tile proposed gradient coil design scheme.

Inductance is an important parameter determining the characteristics of current waveform in electric motors. There are many kinds of inductances, however, self and mutual inductances are the major components. These inductances are changed under the variation of the magnetic circuit, current, frequency etc., even in the same winding distribution. Therefore this paper deals with the characteristics of inductance according to the shape of stator tooth. The analysis model is newly developed motor made of SMC(Soft Magnetic Composite) to reduce the core loss in high speed. the result of this paper gives the basic understandings of inductance to extend the applications of the motors.

A multi-phase electric machine has gained distinct interest due to its high reliability compared to a three-phase structure, and in this paper, self and mutual inductances in a five-phase permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) are estimated by an analytical method. Recently, most of high-performance operations are implemented by field oriented control and/or direct torque control, and inductance for those controls is one of the key parameters in the voltage equation of phase windings. Winding function theory (WFT) is employed to calculate the inductance of phase windings, and it is verified that the result of the analytical method has a deviation of approximately 3 % compared to finite element analysis. Finally, in this paper, the way to obtain direct and quadrature inductance values are introduced from the analytical inductance calculated by WFT.

In this paper, solenoid-type 3-D passives (inductors and transformers) have been designed, fabricated, and characterized by using electroplating techniques, wire bonding techniques, multi-layer thick photoresist, and low temperature processes which are compatible with semiconductor circuitry fabrication. Two different fabrication approaches are performed to develop the solenoid-type 3-D passives and relationship of performance characteristics and geometry is also deeply investigated such as windings, cross-sectional area of core, spacing between windings, and turn ratio. Fully integrated inductor has a quality factor of 31 at 6 GHz, an inductance of 2.7 nH, and a self resonant frequency of 15.8 GHz. Bonded wire inductor has a quality factor of 120, an inductance of 20 nH, and a self resonant frequency of 8 GHz. Integrated transformers with turn ratios of 1:1 and n:l have the minimum insertion loss of about 0.6 dB and the wide bandwidth of a few GHz.

A new excitation method of switched reluctance moor drive is described in this paper. This motor produces reluctance torque by mutual action between tyro phases as well as conventional self reluctance torque. The change of self inductance and mutual inductance are used to produce torque. This paper suggests the operational principle, the mechanism of torque product and the driving characteristics of Switched Reluctance Motor with 2 phase excitation against conventional SRM experimentally. The energy conversion ratio is increased because the next phase is excited after one phase is already excited. Acoustic noise of SRM with 2 phase excitation is decreased than that of conventional SRM due to the mechanism of torque production.

The study is analyzed the thrust fon:e of moving type Linear DC Motor(MM-LDM). The MM-LDM consists of a stator (platen) and mover (forcer). One of the method for calculating tile thrust of an MM-LDM is to analyze the energy gradient which is determined by the distribution of magnet flux. However, this method is very difficult when used to calculate the thrust force of this kind of LDM. The stored energy in the MM-LDM can be obtained by measuring the self-inductance and mutual-inductance of equivalent circuit of the MM-LOM and this energy gradient gives the thrust. The calculation of thrust force included in this motor shows that the mutual inductance has large influence on the generation of thrust force.

This paper presents the self-commissioning for surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor. The proposed strategy executes three tests with a vector controlled inverter drive system. To do this, synchronous d-q axes currents are appropriately controlled for each test. From the three tests, armature resistance, armature inductance, equivalent iron loss resistance, and emf coefficient are identified automatically. The validity of the proposed strategy is confirmed by experimental results.

This paper presents the embedded inductors in PCB (Printed Circuit Board) for PAM(Power Amplifier Module) of mobile terminations. The inductors are designed, simulated, and compared to conventional chip inductors. The Quality factor(Q) and self-resonance frequency(SRF) of the inductors are evaluated. The quality factors of the inductors are two times higher than those of the chip inductors, and the self-resonance frequency is 1.3 times higher than those of chip inductors at the inductance of 2.7 nH and 3.3 nH respectively.

In recent years, numerous studies have attempted to find and explore the auxiliary brake and the oil pressure type and electrical type are mainly used. However, the model proposed here is to self-excited eddy current brake. The advantage of this is it does not require an external power supply and can be produced to reduce the size than others. This self-eddy current brake consists of RLC circuit so resistance, inductance and capacitance value can be considered a fixed value. But, inductance and resistance value changes depending on the shape, temperature and magnetic alteration. Therefore, in this paper, the focal point is characteristic analysis according to the parameter variations. Also, using this result, this paper explains how to estimate the capacitance.
