Abstract

A Switching control circuit based on a micro-controller is developed for blinking operation of fluorescent lamps, which would be suitable for use in the advertising panel. Ten modes of blinking patterns are implanted within the EEPROM. The developed circuit can handle up to 128 fluorescent lamps of 20-40W range, and the lamp life is expected to so beyond 3000 hours.
