In this paper, a novel switched-capacitor DC-DC converter with pulse density and width modulation (PDWM) is proposed with reduced output ripple at variable output voltages. While performing pulse density modulation (PDM), the proposed PDWM modulates the pulse width at the same time to reduce the output ripple with high power efficiency. The prototype chip was implemented using 65 nm CMOS proces...

There is an increasing interest in renewable and green energy sources and the integration of Distributed Generation DG into the power grid system. The problem of optimal capacitor allocation in electric distribution systems involves maximizing energy utilization, feeder loss reduction, and power factor correction. The feeder loss can be separated into two parts based on the active and reactive ...

This application example describes how Motion Control applications with the output stages for servo, DC and stepper motors by Beckhoff are optimized by the utilization of buffer capacitors. The buffer capacitor terminals EL9570 for EtherCAT and KL9570 for K-Bus stabilize the voltage supply by absorbing the fed back energy and dumping the energy that the buffer capacitor cannot protect against i...

Introduction: Sample-and-hold (S/H) is an important analog building block with many applications, including analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and switched-capacitor filters. The function of the S/H circuit is to sample an analog input signal and hold this value over a certain length of time for subsequent processing. Taking advantages of the excellent properties of MOS capacitors and switches...

This research proposes a discrete cosine transform (DCT) based approach for automated inspection of small surface defects on capacitor chips. A spatial domain image is transformed into the DCT frequency domain. From the energy concentration analysis of the DCT domain, we can disassembly the frequency matrix into four disassembled matrices. We select the proper number of larger frequency values ...

In a two-wire (no chassis ground) input offline power supply system, a filter capacitor Cz is often connected between the primary side and the secondary side of the transformer for common-mode electromagnetic interference reduction. For threewire offline power supplies, such a capacitor is also sometimes used for the same purpose. It is unclear how this filter capacitor works. In this paper, an...

This paper proposes a capacitance estimation method of the dc-link capacitor for brushless DC motor (BLDCM) drive systems. In order to estimate the dc-link capacitance, the BLDCM is operated in quadrant-II or -IV among four-quadrant operation. Quadrant-II and -IV are called reverse braking and forward braking, respectively. During the braking operation of the BLDCM, the capacitor is charged by ...
