摘要： Converters (1) for supplying pulsed power to light sources (8) comprise switching parts (2) and controlling parts (3) for adapting switching parameters of the switching parts (2) for improving a performance. The switching part (2) may comprise first/second switches (41, 42) that are in first/second modes during a first time interval of a cycle and vice versa during a second time intervals of a cycle. A group of cycles results in a pulse of the pulsed power. A switching parameter such as the first time interval of a first cycle may be shortened to reduce overshoot. A switching parameter such as the second time interval of the first cycle may be shortened or lengthened. A switching parameter such as the second time interval of a last cycle may be lengthened or shortened to reduce overshoot. A third switch (93) for switching the light source (8) is activated and de-activated delayedly to improve transient behavior.

摘要： A circuit arrangement is disclosed with a regulating circuit which is particularly used for regulating a resonant converter having a plurality of outputs. The arrangement includes a protective circuit that can be constructed with the least possible circuitry and cost. The regulating circuit is used for generating a pulse-width modulated regulation signal (20) in dependence on measuring signals (Va, Vb) present on inputs of the regulating circuit (20). The arrangement further includes a comparator circuit (212) for comparing the duty cycle (δ) of the regulation signal (20) with a predefinable maximum duty cycle value (δmax) and minimum duty cycle value (δmin), in which in case of a duty cycle (δ) situated outside the range between the maximum duty cycle value (δmax) and the minimum duty cycle value (δmin) the circuit arrangement delivers control information that corresponds to this exceeding of the range.
