摘要： The present invention provides a lighting system powered by a system power source. The lighting system includes a ballast in operative connection with the system power source where the ballast is designed to generate a lamp input signal. A lamp input line is operatively connected to receive the lamp input signal. Further, a gas discharge lamp is in operative connection to the lamp input line configured to receive the lamp input signal. An amplitude modulation circuit is then placed in operative connection to the lamp input line, where the amplitude modulation circuit is configured to periodically modulate amplitudes of the lamp input signal prior to the lamp input signal being received by the gas discharge lamp. Operation of the amplitude modulation circuit results in a periodic amplitude modulation of the lamp input signal and eliminating visual striations otherwise occurring in the lamp.

摘要： A gas discharge lamp ballast comprises a load circuit including circuitry for connection to a gas discharge lamp. A circuit supplies d.c. power from an a.c. voltage. A d.c.-to-a.c. converter circuit is coupled to the load circuit for inducing a.c. current therein. The converter circuit comprises first and second converter switches serially connected in the foregoing order between a bus node at a d.c. voltage and a reference node, and being connected together at a common node through which the a.c. load current flows. The first and second converter switches each have a control node and a reference node, the voltage between such nodes determining the conduction state of the associated switch. The respective control nodes of the first and second converter switches are interconnected. The respective reference nodes of the first and second converter switches are connected together at the common node. A boost converter comprises a boost capacitor connected between the bus and reference nodes and whose level of charge determines the bus voltage on the bus conductor. A boost inductor stores energy from the circuit that supplies d.c. power, the boost inductor being connected by at least one diode to the boost capacitor, for discharging its energy into the boost capacitor. A boost switch periodically connects the boost inductor through a low impedance path to the bus node to thereby charge the boost inductor. The boost switch comprises the first switch of the converter circuit. The ballast achieves a high degree of power factor correction.

摘要： Circuits, and methods of using same, are disclosed for pulse operating a sodium vapor lamp and, in response to gating pulses applied to a resonant ballast, the lamp ignites to develop a quasi-resonant bidirectional current waveform through the lamp, the shape of which is controlled to suppress the excitation of acoustic resonant nodes in the lamp. The quasi-resonant bidirectional current waveform oscillates at a prescribed frequency and contains a first group of harmonics, the harmonic content of which is outside any acoustic frequency region associated with the lamp, and further contains a second group of harmonics having a harmonic content which coincides with such acoustic frequency region. The current waveform is caused to decay substantially at the time of ignition of the lamp to quickly reduce the magnitude of the second group of harmonics to thereby suppress excitation of the acoustic frequency region and prevent arc instability in the lamp.

摘要： A ballast circuit for a gas discharge lamp includes a resonant load circuit incorporating a gas discharge lamp and including first and second resonant impedances whose values determine the operating frequency of the resonant load circuit. Further included is a d.c.-to-a.c. converter circuit coupled to the resonant load circuit so as to induce an a.c. current in the resonant load circuit. The converter includes first and second switches serially connected between a bus conductor at a d.c. voltage and ground, and has a common node through which the a.c. load current flows. A feedback circuit provides a feedback signal indicating the level of current in the resonant load circuit. A high voltage IC drives the first and second switches at a frequency determined by a timing signal which predominantly comprises the feedback signal during lamp ignition, whereby during lamp ignition the feedback signal causes the high voltage IC to drive the first and second switches towards a switching frequency which promotes resonant operation of the resonant load circuit.
