Characteristics of electrodeless lamp as a load of the ballast is different compared to normal fluorescent lamp because the lamp includes the magnetics for inductive discharging process. So somewhat different modeling is necessary to make a proper power match between the lamp and ballast. Modeling of an electrodeless lamps, Endura of Osram, is presented in this paper. Simulation with a result of experiment is given for a verification of proposed model.

Fluorescent lamp converts electrical energy Into light energy. Generally we use both electronic ballast and glow starter method in the house. We developed 40W electronic starter and its characteristic is verified by experiments. The efficiency of ballast is improved by using the LC Parallel reasonance circuit at input stage and LC series reasonance circuit at out-put stage.

형광등은 방전등의 일종으로 방전현상을 이용하여 전기에너지를 빛으로 변환하는 광원으로 램프의 점등 시에 나타나는 부저항 특성 때문에 반드시 점등회로를 필요로 한다. 방전등의 광원특성과 안정기의 변환특성은 밀접한 관련을 가지고 있다. 따라서 양 특성의 정합성립을 위하여 사용조건 및 경제성을 고려한 최적회로 설계지침을 내놓는 것은 매우 중요하다. 본 논문에서는 형광등용 전자안정기에 있어 부하인 형광램프의 수명말기에 나타나는 화재, 광효율 저감 등 여러 가지 문제점을 개선할 수 있는 수명말기 검측과 수명말기 표시기능 개발에 대하여 고찰해본다.

A new PF correction topology, Improved Valley Fill (IVF) with Valley Boost Converter (VBC) used in the electronic ballast for fluorescent lamp is presented. The IVF can adjust the valley voltage higher than half the peak line voltage. Hence, there is no pulsating line current around the line voltage peak, PF and THD are significantly improved. The VBC is added to the IVF to achieve unity PF and to increase the valley voltage. The measured PF and THD for a prototype electronic ballast are 0.997 and 5%, respectively, and the lamp current CF is as low as 1.5

The life of a fluorescent lamp is greatly affected by starting scenario and crest factor. This paper will propose a new crest factor control method in electronic ballast for fluorescent lamp using Pulse Frequency Modulation (PFM), which employs a passive Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuit in the input stage. The operation of parellel-loaded circuit, the switching frequency. and the characteristics of electronic ballast with the proposed PFM control scheme are described in detail, and its validity is verified by the simulation results.

Two different resonance inverters used as fluorescent lamp ballast are based on the self oscillation at the series resonance of the circuit components. Each circuit is simulated on a computer in order to explain its function and the variation of the circuit variables for each of the circuit elements. Experimental results have bean carried out on the unsymmetrical scheme to indicate the voltage and current of the fluorescent lamp operation at the high frequency.

In this paper, In order to solve the problem is proposed using a new type of electronic ballast that the traditional magnetic ballasts operated at 50-60Hz have been suffered from noticeable flicker, high loss, large crest factor and heavy weight which is composed of rectifier, active power corrector, series resonant half bridge inverter, micro-controller and piezoelectric transformer for driving for driving T5 fluorescent lamp were manufactured. The proposed electronic ballast operated at high frequency (about 75kHz) shows a input power factor of more than 0.995, total harmonic distortion of less than $12\%$ and lamp current crest factor of less than 1.5, respectively. Output power and efficiency showed 28w and $85\%$, respectively. Accordingly, it is considered that the ballast using piezoelectric transformer can replace the typical electronic ballast.

Electroded lamps operated at a high enough frequency can usually be modeled for the purpose of ballast design, as a resistor. Electrodeless fluorescent lamps include other components such as the arc tube's inductance. But that's impedance is small and so will be neglected in this paper. So, electrodeless fluorescent lamps is modeled as a resistor. A SPICE compatible model was developed for an electrodeless fluorescent lamp(OSRAM SYLVANIA ICETRON/ENDURA 150W).

무전극 램프는 유도방전을 일으키기 위해 사용되는 자성체로 인하여 안정기 부하로서의 특징이 기존의 형광등 램프와는 다르게 인덕턴스 성분을 포함하게 된다. 따라서 상업적으로 많이 사용하는 자려식 방식의 안정기를 구현할 경우 발진 조건을 만족시켜야 하는 파라미터의 증가로 인하여 실제 설계 및 개발이 보다 복잡하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 엔두라 무전극 램프를 대상으로 모델을 이용한 분석과 모의실험으로 자려발진 조건을 찾아서 신속히 설계할 수 있는 실용적 시뮬레이션 기법에 대해서 연구하였으며, 실험을 통해서 연구된 방식의 타당성을 보였다.

This paper presents a new control method for the high frequency electronic ballast which is operated with raw rectified dc link using diode bridge. For the commercial electronic ballast, proper ac input power factor and crest factor of the lamp current are required. The most ballast, therefore, has a active or passive power factor collection (PFC) circuit. With the proposed method, it can be achieved simultaneously that grater than 0.9 of input power factor and less than 1.85 of lamp current crest factor without any PFC circuit. In this paper, the proposed ballast control scheme and the experimental results for the application to the fluorescent lamp are described.
