The electronic ballast for MHD lamp was studied for automotive headlight application. Its basic principle is the Current Sourcing Push-Pull Resonant Inverter with DC I2Volt input Voltage. By changing the switching frequency according to the lamp state, the automotive requirement of very fast warm-up and the zero voltage switching condition were shown by the simulation of the ballast circuit.

본 논문은 복 공진 인버터를 이용한 250[W] MHD 램프용 전자식 안정기를 설계하고 제작하였다. 복 공진 인버터에서 ZVS를 이용함으로써 턴-온${\cdot}$오프 손실을 감소시킬 수 있었고, 회로 해석시 특성평가는 수치해석에 의한 정규화 파라미터를 이용하여 범용성 있게 기술하였다. 실험에 의해 이론해석의 정당성을 입증하였으며, 250[W] MHD 램프용 복 공진 인버터는 안정하게 동작하였다.

Resonant-type electronic ballast for a metal halide discharge(MHD) lamp is proposed and implemented for 400W MHD lamp. HID lamps have good color rendition, long life and good focusing capability but they have flickers by acoustic resonance when driven at high frequency. A new control method is employed to remove acoustic resonance related instability in HID lamp. By using the amplitude modulation, a spread spectrum effect is employed on the ballast. The control loop of resonant inverter is analyzed and a current is designed. The ballast consists of a power factor controller, an half-bridge resonant inverter, a simple ignitor and an integrator with OP-amps. The experimental results show the good performance as PF 0.93, ballast loss 22W at output 400W and the conducted EMI level is below 60dBuV.

In this paper, the electronic ballast was developed to control 250W metal halide lamp. To avoid acoustic resonance phenomenon, we calculated the acoustic resonance band and determined the driving frequence to from 70kHz to 100kHz. Due to the switching loss of MOSFET, many problems are caused in the inverter circuit during lighting the lamp, so we have reduced the loss by connecting the capacitor to reduce inrush current In this paper, main research area is to find the methods to operate the Iamp on regulated constant output. After detecting the current I and voltage V of the lamp, we changed the driving frequency by changing the DC voltage level.

고 휘도 방전 램프는 높은 광 효율이 요구되는 다양한 조명 환경에 많이 사용된다. 특히 메탈할라이드 램프용 조명 램프의 경우 램프 안정기의 크기는 매우 중요한 요소이며 작으면 작을수록 좋다. 메탈할라이드 램프용 전자식 안정기는 전자기식 안정기에 비하여 에너지 효율과 크기 그리고 조명기의 무게 등의 측면에서 성능이 우수하다. 본 논문에서는 DSP를 이용하여 고효율, 소형 및 경량화가 가능하고 비용이 절감되고 역률이 높은 전자식 안정기를 제시하였다. 제시한 전자식 안정기는 다이오드 정류기와 역률 보상 제어 부스트 컨버터 그리고 하프 브릿지 인버터로 구성하였고 역율 보상 알고리즘과 안정기 제어 알고리즘은 TI사의 TMS320LF2406 CPU를 사용하여 구현하였고 실험을 통해 제시한 안정기의 유용성과 타당성을 검증하였다.

We have development the electronic ballast for metal halide discharge (MHD) lamp. The ballast consists of the boost pre-converter for power factor correction (PFC), a flyback a converter, half-bridge inverter and ignitor. To reject acoustic resonance phenomena, we have designed electronic ballast driving with the low frequency square wave.

In this paper, electronics ballast using double resonant inverter for 250[W] MHD lamp is designed and implemented. Electronics ballast reduce a turn -on/offf loss by using ZVS(Zero Voltage Switching) technic in the double resonant inverter, and when circuit have a analysis, the characteristic evaluations is described generally by using the normalized parameters used numerical analysis. We conform a rightfulness of theoretical analysis by comparing theoretical waveforms and Pspice waveforms and experimental waveforms, double resonant inverter for 250[W] MHD lamp is operated safely.

Today there is an ever increasing effort to control high-pressure discharge lamps with electronic ballast. HID lamps can be ignited by high-voltage pulses and need an ignitor to start them. An ignitor gives high-voltage pulses to HID lamps which have the type of the arc discharge. Three kinds of ignitor circuits have been analyzed by the P-spice program and we have shown experimental results in this paper. The result of this study seems to be able to help to develope various ignitors.

This paper presents design and analysis of an HID lamp ballast for a fast turn on characteristics and stable operation. It produces a high open circuit voltage for the ignition and it is controlled to supply effectively the power required to shorten the warm-up period after the breakdown. The lamp modeling by empirical data is presented. It is very effective in the designing of the control loop in the steady-state operating region. A stable operation of the lamp power regulation in the steady state is achieved, which is crucial for the long life time and constant light output. Stability analysis of the system is performed and the results are verified through various simulation results and the hardware experiments.
