    摘要: An anti-striation circuit employs an inverter topology including a pair of electronic switches (Q, M) that are switched between a conducting state and a nonconducting state in an alternating manner to apply an asymmetrical voltage waveform across one or more lamp (LP) to thereby control a flow of an asymmetrical current waveform (iacc) through lamps (LP). To eliminate, if not minimize, visible striations in the lamp(s) (LP), the impedances of an asymmetrical driver as connected to the control inputs (B, G) of the electronic switches (Q, M) may be unequal, and/or the impedances of an asymmetrical driver as connected to the current paths (C-E, D-S) of the electronic switches (Q, M) may be unequal. Additionally, the current gains of the electronic switches (Q, M) may be unequal, and a DC current may flow through the lamp(s) (LP).

    摘要: A filament cut-back circuit comprises an impedance circuit coupled in series between either an AC voltage source and a primary filament winding, or a secondary filament winding and a filament. In response to an alternating voltage from the AC voltage source when coupled in series thereto or an alternating voltage from the secondary filament winding when coupled in series thereto, the impedance circuit operates as a short circuit when the alternating voltage is at a preheat frequency and operates as an open circuit when the alternating voltage is at an operating frequency.

    摘要: A striation correction circuit 300 is arranged to apply a first striation correction current to the first fluorescent lamp L1 and a second striation correction current to the second fluorescent lamp L2. A first voltage appearing across the first fluorescent tube L1 due to the first striation correction current is substantially similar in magnitude but has inverted polarity with respect to a second voltage across the second fluorescent tube L2 due to the second striation correction current. Detection of an end-of-life condition of a fluorescent lamp is facilitated.
