The invention describes a method of transmitting information between an information transmitter and an information receiver, the potential difference of which moves in cycles between a minimum value and a maximum value and is situated at the minimum value for regular intervals; having the steps: provision of information over the time interval or determining the time interval in which the potential difference between information transmitter and information receiver assumes its minimum value; closing of a switching means of the information transmitter in relation to an information memory assigned to the information receiver, only within the time interval; and transmission and storage of the information in the information memory.

A control unit (2) of a remote control receiver sets the forward or reverse direction operating mode of the photodiode (1) as a function of the useful signal level of its output signal, and to be precise, during standby, the photovoltaic operating mode (forward mode), since in this mode no external bias current is required. If the useful signal level of the photodiode (1) exceeds a predefined threshold, the reverse mode is set, and this brings with it a higher sensitivity. A series circuit (A) of a number of identical photodiodes DA1 DAn the forward mode allows the realization of a controlled current source (6) having a transistor (T), since the permissible diode voltage (Ud) of the overall arrangement may have n times the value of the operating voltage of an individual photodiode. Thus at the same time the voltage across the individual diodes can be set to a very low value and a favorable operating range for the current source can be set. The possible sensitivity of the receiver module having diodes in this operating mode can thereby be considerably increased.

Disclosed is a method for driving a gas discharge lamp in at least two operation modes, including the step of applying an alternating voltage to the gas discharge lamp, the alternating voltage having a first polarity during a first time interval and a second polarity opposite to the first polarity during a second time interval. The first time interval and the second time interval are repeated alternately. During a second operation mode, the electrical power being provided to the gas discharge lamp is smaller compared to a first operation mode, and the duration of the first time interval is at least a multiple of the duration of the second time interval.

This invention describes a method for driving a gas discharge lamp (1), whereby an alternating voltage (U) is applied to the gas discharge lamp (1), the alternating voltage (U) having a first polarity during a first time interval (tf1, ts1) and a second polarity opposite to the first polarity during a second time interval (tf2, ts2). In this method, the first time interval (tf1) and the second time interval (tf2) are repeated alternately during a first operation mode. During a second operation mode, the electrical power (P) being provided to the gas discharge lamp (1) is smaller compared to the first operation mode, and the first time interval (ts1) and the second time interval (ts2) are repeated alternately, whereby in this second operation mode the duration of the first time interval (ts1) is at least a multiple of the duration of the second time interval (ts2). Furthermore, the invention describes an appropriate driving unit (4) for driving a gas discharge lamp (1), and an image rendering system, particularly a projector system, comprising a gas discharge lamp (1) and such a driving unit (4).
