摘要： A three light level electronic ballast, and methods of operating lamps at three light levels, are provided. The ballast includes a rectifier, a power factor correction circuit, an inverter circuit, a first circuit, a second circuit, and a control circuit. The rectifier receives an AC voltage signal and produces a rectified voltage signal, which the power factor correction circuit receives and uses to provide a corrected voltage signal. The inverter circuit receives the corrected voltage signal and provides an energizing signal to power at least two lamps. The first circuit selectively reduces the current applied to the lamps by the energizing signal. The second circuit selectively prevents the second lamp from being energized by the energizing signal. The control circuit controls the first circuit and the second circuit.

摘要： A electrodeless lamp including a fluorescent discharge vessel, a tip, an amalgam, a lamp core, and a heater. The vessel contains a gas having a partial vapor pressure and a fluorescent material. The tip has an inner end engaging the vessel, and an opening in communication with the gas. The amalgam is positioned within the opening, in heat transfer relation with the tip. When the temperature of the amalgam decreases, mercury vapor in the gas condensates onto the amalgam, causing a decrease in the partial vapor pressure of the gas. The opposite occurs when the amalgam temperature increases. The lamp core generates a magnetic flux, causing an electrical discharge in the gas. The heater includes a positive temperature coefficient connected to a winding of the lamp core. The heater is in heat transfer relation with the tip and heats the tip when the electrodeless lamp is in a dimming mode.

摘要： A ballast for dimming a lamp is provided. The ballast includes an inverter circuit for providing a lamp current for energizing the lamp and a dim interface for receiving an input indicative of a selected lighting level. A control circuit is connected to the dim interface for generating a pulse-width-modulated signal having a duty cycle corresponding to the selected lighting level. A switching network is connected to the control circuit for receiving the pulse-width-modulated signal. The switching network operates between a conductive state and a non-conductive state as a function of the pulse-width-modulated signal. An impedance device is connected across the switching network and is configured for connecting in series with the lamp so that the impedance device receives the lamp current when the switching network is operating in the non-conductive state and the lamp current bypasses the capacitor when the switching network is operating in the conductive state.

摘要： A ballast to energize a lamp at a selected lighting level is provided. The ballast includes a rectifier, a buck converter, and a controller. The rectifier produces a DC voltage with a substantially constant magnitude. The buck converter generates a lamp voltage output from the DC voltage based on a duty cycle. The output has a magnitude that is varied based on the duty cycle to energize the lamp at a selected lighting level. The controller receives a dim input signal indicating the selected lighting level, and provides an appropriate control signal to the buck converter. The appropriate control signal indicates a particular duty cycle corresponding to magnitude of the output to produce the selected lighting level. In response to receiving the control signal, the buck converter adjusts the duty cycle accordingly, producing the output having the magnitude to energize the lamp at the selected lighting level.
