    摘要: An inverter controller dives an inverter to operate at a switching frequency selectively from one of a preheating frequency (f1), a starting frequency (f2), and a lighting frequency (f3) which are different from each other, thereby giving a preheating mode, a starting mode, and a lighting mode. A reset means is provided to make the starting mode upon lowering of a voltage supplied to the inverter below a first threshold, while an inverter stop means is provided to stop the inverter upon detection of abnormality of a discharge lamp. A timer generates a signal determining the start of the preheating, starting, and/or lighting modes, and generates a reset signal disable signal for disabling the reset means, an inverter stop disable signal for disabling the inverter stop means. The inverter controller includes a frequency sweep means for varying the switching frequency gradually from the starting frequency to the lighting frequency. The timer disables the reset means only during a period starting from the selection of the preheating frequency and ending when the switching frequency varies to the lighting frequency, and disable the inverter stop means only during a period starting from the selection of the preheating frequency and ending when the switching frequency begins to vary from the starting frequency to the lighting frequency.

    摘要: A ballast circuit for a discharge lamp capable of protecting the circuit when the lamp reaches its end of life with a cost effective circuit arrangement. The circuit includes a DC voltage sensing network for sensing a DC voltage which appears as a consequence of the lamp reaching its end of life. Upon the sensed DC voltage exceeding a threshold, a control is made to limit or stop supplying an output power to the lamp for protecting the ballast circuit from an otherwise generating excessive current. The sensing network is composed of a DC sensing capacitor and a resistor which are connected in circuit outside of a resonant circuit responsible for generating a high frequency voltage to operate the lamp. Thus, the DC sensing capacitor can be kept free from the high voltage generated by the resonant circuit and be of less cost for reducing a manufacturing cost.
