This study presents the design of low power 9T SRAM cell using dynamic domino logic to achieve low power dissipation. The internal structure of the proposed 9T SRAM has cross coupled dynamic inverters which periodically updates the internal node voltage levels which, increase the read and write stability of the circuit. The SRAM design also has charge keeper transistor which resolves the proble...

Static voltage stability is considered as one of the main issues for primary identification before voltage collapsing in distribution systems. Although, the optimum siting of distributed generation resources in distribution electricity network can play a significant role in voltage stability improving and losses reduction, the high penetration level of them can lead to reduction in the improvem...

The parallel operation of voltage regulator modules (VRMs) for high-end microprocessors requires a current-sharing (CS) circuit to provide a uniform load distribution among the modules. A good dynamic performance of the CS circuit is very important since the microprocessors present highly dynamic loads to the VRMs. Stability and dynamic performance of the CS control are considered. To assess th...

Dynamic modeling and control of dc-dc series resonant converter (SRC) especially when operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) is still a challenge in power electronics. Due to semiconductors switching, SRC is naturally represented as a switched linear system, a class of hybrid systems. Nevertheless, the hybrid nature of the SRC is commonly neglected and it is modeled as a purely contin...

This paper analyses the effects of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) tidal current turbines on a distribution grid under unbalanced voltage conditions of the grid. A dynamic model of an electrical power system under the unbalanced network is described in the paper, aiming to compare the system performance when connected with and without DFIG at the same location in a distribution grid. Exte...

Voltage instability is a crucial issue in the secure operation of power grids. Several methods for voltage stability assessment were presented. Some of them are highly computationally intensive, while others are reported not to work properly under all circumstances. This paper proposes a new methodology based on the generator equivalent circuit model (GECM) and the phasor measurement unit (PMU)...

In this paper, concepts and methods of hybrid control systems are adopted to establish a hierarchical dynamic automatic voltage control (HD-AVC) system, realizing the dynamic voltage stability of power grids. An HD-AVC system model consisting of three layers is built based on the hybrid control method and discrete event-driven mechanism. In the Top Layer, discrete events are designed to drive t...

The problem of analytically coordinating dissimilar voltage control actions in security control of power systems is addressed. A framework for hybrid dynamical control based on coordination of controls with diierent response time and dynamic characteristics is presented. The proposed method accounts for both static and dynamic aspects of the voltage control problem. The beneets of coordination ...
