This paper proposes an effective drive of high intensity discharge (HID) lamp ballast for cars. All control functions of the proposed ballast are implemented using a low-cost single chip microcontroller, PIC16C73 to optimize the total system size and to minimize cost through minimization of total component number. The proposed ballast generates high open-circuit voltage to ignite the lamp and is controlled to supply effectively the power required to shorten warm-up period after the breakdown. The DC-DC converter of the DC-AC converter part of the ballast utilizes the flyback converter topology that can minimize component number. Also, because to more minimize the ballast size, the transformer size must be minimized, for this, PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) pulses are generated with high frequency using the PWM module of the microcontroller. An analysis for this is explained, briefly. As if the operation of the lamp and ballast arrives at steady-state, then the ballast must AC-control the lamp, for this, the microcontroller utilizes the other PWM module. And the part related to the igniter is explained, briefly. It is shown through experimental results that the controller of the proposed ballast has good performance for the HID lamp for cars.

일반적으로 자외선(UV)을 발생하기 위한 방전등 구동용 직류 전원장치는 하드 스위칭 모드로 동작되어지는 고주파 스위칭 DC-DC 컨버터가 사용되고 있다. 구체적으로 전원장치는 전자 노이즈 장해에 의한 전자 회로의 오동작이나 각 구성 소자의 발열의 문제 등이 시스템의 신뢰성을 저하시키는 원인이 되고 있다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 소프트 스위칭 회로 기술을 사용한 고주파 링크 DC-DC 컨버터로서 먼저 구체적으로 1차측 위상 천이 PWM DC-DC 컨버터와 제안한 2차측 위상 천이 PWM DC-DC 컨버터를 조합하여 방전등 구동용 직류 전원장치를 제안하였다. 제안하는 방전등 구동용 직류 전원장치는 시뮬레이션과 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 서술하였다.

백열전구를 대체하기위한 친환경 에너지 절약형 7w급 LED 램프의 구동을 위한 전원장치를 설계하였다. LED 램프는 칩 LED를 여러개 직 병렬로 연결하여 사용하게 되므로 적합한 직류 전압과 전류를 공급하여야 한다. 그런데 LED 램프는 상용 AC 220V 전원에 직접 연결해 사용하게 되므로 드라이버에는 전압제어와 전류제어가 포함된 AC/DC, DC/DC 전력변환기가 반드시 필요하게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 램프의 LED 열에 따라 출력전압과 전류제어가 가능하며 변압기가 없는 간단한 구조의 LED 램프 드라이버를 설계하였다.

In this paper, it has been proposed the simultaneous control of PFC (power factor corrector) and electronic ballast for fluorescent lamp by one chip micro-controller. Boost DC-DC converter is adopted for PFC, and half bridge inverter for electronic ballast. It controls, simultaneously and independently, the boost DC-DC converter and the half bridge inverter. As PFC and electronic ballast are controlled by one chip micro-controller, it is possible to achieve the simpler and the cheaper controller for fluorescent lamp. Experimental results have shown the feasibility of the proposed simultaneous control of PFC and electronic ballast by one chip micro-controller.

This study performed analysis on the thermal pattern and current characteristics of an LED ((Light Emitting Diode) street lamp. It did this using a TVS (Thermal Video System) to analyze the LED street lamp's thermal pattern, and measured its characteristics using an oscilloscope. The ambient temperature and humidity during the experiment were maintained at $24{\pm}2[^{\circ}C]$ and 50~60[%]. The capacity of the LED street lamp was 120[W] and nine sets of modules were arranged at uniform intervals. On one module, 24 LED lamps were arranged in a radial pattern. The analysis of the thermal diffusion pattern at the front of the LED lamp showed that the maximum surface temperature was approximately $34[^{\circ}C]$. In addition, there was almost no change in the temperature of the upper cover, and the temperature at the side showed a uniform thermal diffusion pattern. The surface temperature of the converter converting AC to DC increased to approximately $46[^{\circ}C]$. The analysis results of the thermal characteristics of one LED indicated uniform thermal characteristics for an initial eight minutes. However, the temperature at the center of the LED increased to approximately $82[^{\circ}C]$ after 12 minutes had elapsed. It can be seen from this that the temperature at the center of the LED was higher than the allowable temperature, $70[^{\circ}C]$ of the insulating material for general electrical devices. Therefore, it is necessary to design a lamp in such a way that the plastic insulating material does not come into contact with or get close to the LED lamp. The voltage of the LED lamp converted by the AC/DC converter was measured at DC 27[V] and the current was DC 13[A]. Consequently, it can be seen that in order to secure an adequate light source, it is important to supply a stable current that was greater than the current of other light sources. Therefore, appropriate radiation of heat is required to secure the stability and reliability of the system.

A new of the automotive High Intensity Discharge(HID) lamp ballast systems is proposed. Proposed scheme is consisted of the high frequency DC-DC converter and low frequency DC-AC inverter as same as conventional HID ballast system. But this system separates ignition voltage from dc link voltage, which results to used the lower voltage rating power devices for HID lamp ballast system compared with conventional system. As a result, proposed system has a lower cost and higher efficiency.
