This paper is to improve the problem of the LED dimming control system using the conventional PWM and DAC method. The conventional PWM method controls the average current to switch dimming signal. This method generates the flicker when controlling at a low current. In order to solve the problem, this system prevents the flicker with the DAC method. The LED is lit at micro-current flowing in the LED. And offset voltage is generated in the output of the DAC when the DAC output is very low voltage as 0V. This was resolved by the voltage drop of the output voltage to construct a negative offset circuit. In addition, the LED current can't flow as set values because of overheating of FET. In order to solve the problem, the 16 bits ADC in the microprocessor is a more accurate current control receives the LED current in comparison with the set value. Therefore, the LED dimming control system proposed in this paper showed the accurate and reliable more than conventional systems.

Power system of Jeju is interconnected to the mainland using HVDC and that is also interconnected to three wind farms. It will be difficult to control of Jeju power system if HVDC is disconnected or HVDC is overhauled under large scale wind farms interconnected. We measured and analysed the power quality of two substation and two wind farms to assess that wind farms have an effect on Jeju system during the HVDC overhaul last May. We concentrated on the power quality like frequency, voltage variation, voltage harmonics, current harmonics, flicker. We can found that the frequency of Jeju system is very unstable during overhaul, so the frequency of Jeju system can be variated easily by wind farm's rapid output power variation. There are some benefits and weak points in power quality between two wind farms because each wind farm is consist of different wind turbines.

Silver paste curing process is very important in LCoS panel manufacture because incomplete curing process will cause poor bonding strength and increase resistance. The imperfection situation results in poor reliability and the variation of the common voltage, respectively. The change of the common voltage causes image flicker. According to Kinetics, we acquire activation energy by using dynamic DSC and compare two kinds of silver paste. From the result of isothermal DSC, we get optimum curing parameters to solve the flicker problem caused of incomplete curing of the silver paste.

The residual DC properties in the in-plane switching (IFS) liquid crystal displays(LCDs) which have different concentrations of cynao NLCs and different resistivities of fluorine NLCs were studied. We also propose a new residual DC measurement method, named 'light minimum/maximum method'. We confirmed the precision of residual DC measurement by light minimum/maximum method compared with the flicker minimizing method and found that new measurement method of residual DC is better than that of the conventional flicker minimizing method since the resolution level of measurements is in 0.1V

In this paper a method for the development of a static VAR compensator (SVC) control algorithm is presented. The proposed algorithm has been designed with the objective of eliminating the negative impact of electric arc furnaces on the power system. First, a mathematical model of the proposed SVC controller in the d-q synchronous rotating coordinate system is developed. An analysis under dynamic and steady state conditions is also carried out. The efficiency of the presented controller is demonstrated by means of computer simulations of an actual steel-factory network model. The major advantages of the proposed controller are better flicker compensation, increased ability to regulate voltage and the need for only one-point network measurements.

Industrial Static Var Generator (SVG) is typically applied at or near the load center to mitigate voltage fluctuation, flicker, phase unbalance, non-sine distortion or other load-related disturbance. Special attention is paid to the influence of grid voltage quality on SVG current, the non-sine distortion and unbalance of grid voltage causes not only the AC current distortion and unbalance but also the DC voltage fluctuation. In order to let the inverter voltage contain the fundamental negative sequence and harmonic component corresponding to the grid voltage, a new dual-loop control scheme is proposed to suppress the influence in this paper. The harmonic and negative sequence voltage decomposition algorithm and DC voltage control are also introduced. All these analyses can guide the practical applications. The simulation results verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the present control strategy and analyses.

Recently, the interest on power quality has been hot issue because the equipments cause voltage disturbance and become more sensitive to the voltage disturbance. The DVR(Dynamic Voltage Restorer) is one of the Custom Power Device that can compensate the voltage. DVR operates as a series connected compensator whose output voltage can be controlled system voltage. And the magnitude of compensation voltage is limited by the characteristics of system and load. Compensation capability of DVR was simulated by EMTDC under several condition. This paper analyzed effect of DVR's compensation at power quality test center which has SSFG(Sag, swell, and Flicker Generator, CPDs(SSTS, DVR, DSTATCOM), and loads.

There are many researches on Power Quality Device to protect the critical load and power system as the nonlinear load and precision load are adopted into the power system recently. To analyze the voltage compensation of voltage sag and voltage swell by DVR, which is connected to the important load in series, this paper shows PSCAD/EMTDC simulation and its verification by comparing with the actual DVR output of 2MVA. DVR control scheme in this paper is applicable to compensate single-phase, 2-phases or 3-phases voltage sag as well as DVR for distribution system.

Direct-conversion RF front-end for 5-GHz WLAN is implemented in $0.18-{\mu}m$ CMOS technology. The front-end consists of a low noise amplifier, and low flicker noise down-conversion mixers. For the mixer, an inductor is included to resonate out parasitic tail capacitances in the transconductance stage at the operating frequency, thereby improves the flicker noise performance of the mixer, and the overall noise performance of the front-end. The receiver RF front-end has 6.5 dB noise figure, - 13 dBm input IP3, and voltage conversion gain of 20 dB with the power consumption of 30 mW.
