摘要： A power source device is so arranged that one of switching elements forming a plurality of power conversion switching circuits which is used in common during each switching cycle is made to have a switching period in which mainly a current is taken up from a power source of first one of the switching circuits, the switching period being varied in a zone in which an input voltage is higher than a predetermined voltage in a cycle of input voltage waveform. Any distortion of input current waveform occurring around lower voltage period of commercial AC source is thereby reduced, in the power source device wherein the power conversion switching circuits employ commonly the switching elements.

摘要： An electronic ballast for a high intensity discharge lamp (HID) includes a power converters, a controller, and a lamp power switch. In the power converter, an input DC voltage is converted into a ballast output power for lighting the HID lamp. The controller has a function to control the power converter and change the ballast output power. The lamp power switch detects a lamp output parameter indicated after the HID lamp starts discharge, identifies a lamp power of the HID lamp according to the lamp output parameter, and gives an identification signal indicating the lamp power. In response to this identification signal, the power converter outputs the ballast output power which matches with the lamp power identified.

摘要： A ballast includes a voltage converter providing a DC power from a DC source voltage. The converter includes a switching element and an energy storing element having an inductance. The switching element is controlled to operate for repetitively switching the DC source voltage in order to store energy into the energy storing element. A power converter is included in the ballast to receive the energy and convert it into an operating power for driving the discharge lamp. A controller provides a command value and turns on and off the switching element for variable periods, respectively in accordance with the command value for generating a necessary power to the lamp. The controller gives a variable OFF-period and a variable ON-period to the switching element. The controller gives a minimum OFF-end limit and a forced maximum OFF-end limit for terminating the OFF-period, and also gives a minimum ON-end limit and a forced maximum ON-end limit for terminating the variable ON-period. The minimum OFF-end limit is defined at a timing when a secondary current flowing from the inductance decreases to zero, while the minimum ON-end limit is defined at a timing when a primary current flowing through the switching element reaches the command value. The controller terminates the OFF-period at the minimum OFF-end limit or at the forced maximum OFF-end limit, whichever comes earlier, and terminates the ON-period at the minimum ON-end limit or at said forced maximum ON-end limit, whichever comes earlier.
