The paper presents the electrical performance measurements of a prototype nuclear battery and two types of betavoltaic cells. The electrical performance was assessed by measuring current-voltage properties (I-V) and determining the short-circuit current and the open-circuit voltage. With ⁶³Ni as an irradiation source, the open-circuit voltage and the short-circuit current were determined as 1 V and 64 nA, respectively. The prototype consisted of 10 betavoltaic cells that were prepared using radioactive ⁶³Ni. Electroplating of the radioactive ⁶³Ni on an ohmic contact (Ti-Ni) was carried out at a current density of 20 mA/㎠. Two types of betavoltaic cells were studied: with an external ⁶³Ni source and a ⁶³Ni-covered source. Under irradiation of the ⁶³Ni source with an activity of 10 mCi, the open-circuit voltage V_oc of the fabricated cells reached 151 mV and 109 mV; the short-circuit current density J_sc was measured to be 72.9 nA/cm2 and 64.6 nA/㎠, respectively. The betavoltaic cells had the fill factor of 55% and 50%, respectively.

The characteristics of spatter generation in the short circuit transfer region of $CO_2$ welding was investigated. Spatteriing phenomena could be classified into three types : Type I generated due to the abrupt increase of arc voltage in arcing duration. Type II by the gas ejection from molten metal and Type III generated by the arc instability at the moment of arc re-ignition just after short circuiting. Main observed types were dependent on the chemical composition of welding wires. The case of YCW12 wires was mainly composed of spatters generated by Type l and Type II, while most, spatters in YCW11 wires were generated by Type II and Type III.

This paper presents an electronic ballast using a step down converter, a low frequency inverter for high intensity short-arc discharge lamp. The proposed ballast is composed of a full-wave rectifier, a step down converter operated as a current source with power regulation and a low frequency inverter with external ignition circuit. The ignition circuit generates high voltage pulse of $3{\sim}5[kV]$ peak, 130[Hz] periodically. Moreover, it is able to reignite at regular intervals by protective circuit. As experimental results on the test, acoustic resonance phenomenon is eliminated by operating the low frequency square wave voltage and current. Lamp voltage, current and consumption power are measured 123.8[V], 8.1[A] and 1,002[W], respectively. It was confirmed that the designed ballast operate the lamp with a constant power.

RF 회로에 적합한 새로운 형태의 on-chip ESD protection 방법을 제시하였다. RF 회로의 특성을 이용하여 DC blocking capacitor 앞에 short-circuited stub를 달아서 ESD 소자로 활용하였다. 특히 short-circuited stub를 매칭 회로의 일부로 사용하여 stub의 길이를 줄일 수 있다. 또한 short-circuited stub의 width와 metal의 성분으로 ESD threshold voltage를 쉽게 예측 가능하다. 기존의 ESD 방지 회로와 달리 RF 회로를 위한 ESD 방지 회로에서 문제시되던 기생 capacitance 성분에 대한 문제점을 해결 할 수 있었다.

The on-line measurement of high-power IGBT collector current is important for the hierarchical control and short-circuit and overcurrent protection of its driver and the sensorless control of the converter. The conventional on-line measurement methods for IGBT collector current are not suitable for engineering measurement due to their large-size, high-cost, low-efficiency sensors, current transformers or dividers, etc. Based on the gate driver, this paper has proposed a current measuring circuit for IGBT collector current. The circuit is used to conduct non-intervention on-line measurement of IGBT collector current by detecting the voltage drop of the IGBT power emitter and the auxiliary emitter terminals. A theoretical analysis verifies the feasibility of this circuit. The circuit adopts an operational amplifier for impedance isolation to prevent the measuring circuit from affecting the dynamic performance of the IGBT. Due to using the scheme for integration first and amplification afterwards, the difficult problem of achieving high accuracy in the transient-state and on-state measurement of the voltage between the terminals of IGBT power emitter and the auxiliary emitter (u_Ee) has been solved. This is impossible for a conventional detector. On this basis, the adoption of a two-stage operational amplifier can better meet the requirements of high bandwidth measurement under the conditions of a small signal with a large gain. Finally, various experiments have been carried out under the conditions of several typical loads (resistance-inductance load, resistance load and inductance load), different IGBT junction temperatures, soft short-circuits and hard short-circuits for the on-line measurement of IGBT collector current. This is aided by the capacitor voltage which is the integration result of the voltage uEe. The results show that the proposed method of measuring IGBT collector current is feasible and effective.

정상 또는 morphine을 처리한 개구리(Rana nigromaculate)의 피부에서 Ussing 등의 방법에 의하여 막전위와 단락전류에 미치는 morphine의 작용과 morphine 작용에 미치는 전해질의 영향을 관찰하여 다음과 같은 성적을 얻었다. 1) Morphine $5{\pm}10^{-3}$은 개구리 피부의 막전위와 단락전류를 현저히 감소시켰으며 약물투여후 60분후에 최고의 효과를 나타냈다. 2) Naloxone $10^{-4}$은 morphine의 막전위 및 단란전류 억제작용을 차단치 못하였다. 3) 영양액내 $Na^+$ 농도감소, $K^+$ 농도증가 및 $Ca^{2+}$농도증가는 morphine의 막전위 및 단란전류 억제작용ㅇ르 현저히 강화하였으며, $Mn^{2+}$첨가는 morphine의 막전위 억제효과만을 강화시켰다. 한편 $Ca^{2+}$ 농도의 감소로써 morphine의 단락전류억제 효과는 현저히 약화되었으며 $Ma^{2+}$농도 감소로써 morphine의 단락전류 억제효과로 더불어 막전위 억제효과도 감약되었다. 4) Morphine 처리 표본에서 막전위와 단락전류는 morphine 처리 초기에 일시적인 감소를 일으킨 후 증가하여 morphine 처리 $4{\sim}8$일에는 대조군에 비하여 현저히 상승하였다. 또한 morphine의 막전위 및 단락전류 억제효과에 있어서도 morphine처리 $1{\sim}2$일에는 morphine의 억제효과가 강화되나 morphine의 처리 4 또는 8일에는 현저히 약화되었다. 이상의 실험성적으로 morphine의 약물내성을 포함한 그 약리적작용이 생체막에서의 전해질수송 또는 전해질 투과성에 영향을 미쳐 초래될 수 있음을 시사하는 것으로 추측하였다.

Purpose: Short-circuit current of a solar module that is widely used as a power source for wireless environmental sensors is proportional to solar radiation although there are a lot of factors affecting the short-circuit current. The objective of this study is to develop a model for estimating solar radiation for using the solar module as a power source and an irradiance sensor. Methods: An experiment system collected data on the short-circuit current and environmental factors (ambient temperature, cloud cover and solar radiation) during 65 days. Based on these data, two linear regression models and a non-linear regression model were developed and evaluated. Results: The best model was a linear regression model with short-circuit current, angle of incidence and cloud cover and its overall RMSE(Root Means Square Error) was 66.671 $W/m^2$. The other linear model (RMSE 69.038 $W/m^2$) was also acceptable when the cloud cover data is not available.

본 연구에서는 외부화염에 의한 비닐코드의 손상에 따른 단락 진행과정, 외형 및 표면 구조,조성 변화 등 단락 특성을 연구하였다. 초고속이미지시스템(HSIS)을 이용하여 단락과정을 분석한 결과, 열적피로에 의해 피복이 소실되면서 전선 도체가 닿아 수회에 걸쳐 단락이 발생하였으며. 실체현미경과 SEM을 이용하여 외형과 표면구조를 분석한 결과, 전원 측 전선은 두 가닥 모두에 용융흔이 형성되었으며 V자형의 흠을 나타냈다. 부하 측 전선의 용융흔은 전원 측 보다 큼을 알 수 있었다. EDX에 의한 조성분석 결과. 전원 측에서는 Cu와 O가 검출되었으며 부하 측에서는 Cu와 O 이외에 피복재료인 Cl과 Ca를 검출할 수 있었다. 이와 같은 실험과 분석결과를 바탕으로 전기화재의 원인을 규명하는데 많은 도움이 될 것으로 기대한다.
