Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) can yield significant energy savings in processor SoCs. New integrated voltage regulator technologies enable fine-grained DVFS, in which many independent voltage domains switch voltage levels at nanosecond timescales to save energy. This work presents an overview of DVFS techniques and an energy model by which to evaluate them. Applying the energy mo...

This paper investigates performance of Fuzzy Supervisory Controller (FSC) in control of power converters. A FSC module is added to conventional narrow bandwidth voltage regulator in Power Factor Corrected (PFC), Voltage Source Converter (VSC) to improve DC bus voltage regulation. PFC converter is selected for this work as conventional design of the PFC converter requires narrow bandwidth DC bus...

This paper describes the transient behaviour of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) driven by wind turbine after its disconnection from the grid. The induction machine runs at a specific speed with the stator disconnected from the grid (Is=0), the rotor is suddenly excited with slip-frequency voltages derived from voltage regulators so as to produce commended open-circuit stator terminal vo...

This paper presents a simple class AB buffer which is suitable for low-voltage (1.5 V) applications. The proposed buffer uses an adaptive load to reduce the sensitivity of the quiescent current to the process variation. The main feature of this scheme is its simplicity. The circuit was fabricated in a 2.0 m digital CMOS process. Experimental results demonstrate that the buffer can operate with ...

This paper deals with the performance analysis of static compensator (STATCOM) based voltage regulator for self excited induction generators (SEIGs) supplying balanced/unbalanced and linear/non linear loads. A threephase insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) based current controlled voltage source inverter (CC-VSI) known as STATCOM is used for harmonic elimination. It also provides the requi...

In Spain, electrical industries do not charge the energy bill directly to the nal user, but they share the ownership of an enterprise (called R.E.E., Red El ectrica de Espa~ na) which gets all payments and then distributes them according to some complex criteria (amount of power generation of every company, number of customers, etc.) Recently, some of these companies have asked to redistribute ...

This paper considers the problem of tracking and regulation for the class of linear differential systems in the behavioral framework. Given a plant, together with an exosystem generating the disturbances and the reference signals, the problem of tracking and regulation is to find a controller such that the plant variable tracks the reference signal regardless of the disturbance acting on the sy...

In this paper we prove an identity between the elliptic regulators of some 2-isogenous elliptic curves. This allow us to prove a new exotic relation for the elliptic curve 20A of Cremona’s tables. Also we prove the (conjectured) exotic relation for the curve 20B given by Bloch and Grayson in [3].
