An electronic ballast for driving automotive HID lamps is presented. The circuit topology is composed of a fly back converter, a half bridge inverter, and igniter using voltage doubler. A prototype was developed and tested on a 35W lamp with a 12V input voltage. To avoiding acoustic resonance the half bridge inverter is operated at 400Hz and provided a squared-wave voltage source to the lamp. The transient and steady state characteristics of the tested HID lapm are measured and analyzed.

Meta! Halide Discharge(]\1HD) Iamps have good color rendition, long life and good focusing capability but h have flickers bv acoustic resonances. We have designed the electronic ballast for reducing acoustic resonances in high pressure discharge tube. The ballast consists of main two parts, the first part is a half-bridge inverter to make a square wave form a and the st'Cond part is a flyback converter to combine the low frequency and high frequency component. As a r result of this study, we conclude that MHD lamps of 70 watt 따c very well light(D without acoustic resonance p phenomena by the elestronic ballast.

In this paper, T5 28-watt fluorescent lamp ballast using a piezoelectric transformer is fabricated and its characteristic is investigated. Developed electronic ballast is composed of basic circuits and blocks, such as rectifier part, active power factor corrector part, frequency oscillation part using microcontroller and feedback control, piezoelectric transformer and resonant half bridge inverters. The fabricated ballast uses to variable frequency methode in external so exciting that the frequency of piezoelectric transformer could be generated by voltage control oscillator using microcontroller(AT90S4433). The current of fluorescent lamp is detected by feedback control circuit. The signal of inverter output is received using Piezoelectric transformer, and then its output transmitted to fluorescent lamp. Traditional electromagnetic ballasts operated at 50-60Hz have been suffered from noticeable flicker, high loss, large crest factor and heavy weight. A new electronic ballast is operated at high frequency about 75kHz, and then Input power factor, distortion of total harmonic and lamp current crest factor are measured about 0.9!35, 12H and 1.5, respectively Accordingly, the traditional ballast is by fabricated electronic ballast using piezoelectric transformer and voltage control oscillator because of its lighter weight, high efficiency, economic merit and saving energy.

This paper presents an electronic ballast using a novel complex modulation method for the metal halide lamp. The proposed modulation method, which has a modulating signal of swept complex frequency, can eliminate the acoustic resonance more effectively than the conventional modulation method, which has a modulating signal of constant frequency. For the purpose of future application specific integrated circuits (ASIC). the controller of the proposed ballast has been designed only with erasable programmable logic devices (EPLDs), but without a microprocessor. In this paper, detailed proposed modulation schemes are described and experimental results on the proto type 150W metal halide lamp ballast with the proposed modulation method ate discussed.

Dual Buck Inverter 구조를 갖는 35W 세라믹 MHL용 전자식 안정기의 제어회로를 설계하였다. 제어회로는 크게 2가지로 나눌 수 있는데 PFC IC를 이용하여 Inverter의 전압과 전류를 센싱하여 80kHz로 Inverter를 구동하기 위한 제어부분과 시간의 경과에 따른 PFC의 출력 전압 제어, Ignition Pulse 제어 및 무부하 보호, 램프의 점등 상태에 따른 Inverter 구동 주파수 제어부분으로 구성되어 있다. 본 논문은 마이크로 컨트롤러(ATmega8)를 이용하여 시간의 경과에 따른 안정기의 제어부분에 대해 설명하고 이를 실험을 통해 검증하였다.
