This paper first reviews the state-of-the-arts charge pumps, with focus on power loss minimization, power stage architectures and control signaling. A new four-phase complimentary charge pump is then proposed. By employing the techniques of minimizing the reversion loss and conduction loss and interleaving the power stage sub-cells, the design achieves high efficiency and low ripple voltages without compromising fabrication cost. A sub-threshold clock generator is employed to further reduce the power loss in the controller. The charge pump was designed with IBM 180 nm CMOS process with fully on-chip pumping capacitors. HSPICE simulations show that the charge pump maintains the efficiency above 90% within up to 5 mW power range, with the maximum efficiency of 92.01%. The ripple voltage is also much improved in comparison with its counterparts.","PeriodicalId":345557,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127647714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since the basic Kalman filter is a state observer, its use in vector controlled schemes has received much attention. However, these schemes are based on the assumption that the existence of iron loss in an induction motor may be neglected. The paper shows the effect of iron loss on the extended Kalman filter performance that is designed on the basis if the ironless induction machine model. Simulation results are carried out to demonstrate this effect as well as the effectiveness of the suggested approach to minimise the speed estimation error without modifying the observer algorithm.","PeriodicalId":345557,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121566802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, prior attempts to improve the transient response have been inconclusive because this model depends on the steady-state analysis. This paper presents a new model control method of the switching dc-dc converter using both the static and dynamic functions to improve the dynamic characteristics. Furthermore, the relationship between the parameters of control circuit and the dynamic characteristics is discussed. As a result, it is seen that the DC-DC converter with a new model control has a superior transient response compared with that of the conventional control. Especially, the overshoot of the reactor current is suppressed to within 34% and this result is approximately 30% smaller than that of the conventional ldquostatic model referencerdquo control.","PeriodicalId":345557,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130513594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Air-gap irregularities and related monitoring techniques have been studied in the past mainly about large hydro-generators (with practical applications), but similar problems have been recognized for on-board ship synchronous generators. These latter require a different approach, i.e. non-invasive monitoring. Static and dynamic rotor eccentricities were simulated in this work, for a ship-application sized generator, by using a dynamic model including inductances computed by parametric 3D FEM analysis of the faulty machine. Current, voltage, and no-load e.m.f. steady-state waveforms were analyzed by FFT and space-vector approach. No-load e.m.f. space vector is a sensitive fault indicator since its amplitude largely increases with the level of absolute eccentricity; furthermore, it is possible to discriminate the static eccentricity from the dynamic eccentricity utilizing the space vector loci ovality.","PeriodicalId":345557,"journal":{"name":"2008 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion","volume":"53 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116579834","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
