Electric ballast 110 is determined by second inductance 125 and second electric capacity 140 in the operating frequency of start-up period.The 3rd electric capacity 150 and second electric capacity 140 are combined as voltage divider, be used for that the signal that feeds back to the 3rd node 183 is carried out the dividing potential drop running and be fit to the required signal of driving power switch 155 to provide, and, can reduce the quality factor (quality factor) of this bleeder circuit running according to this by the damping action of the 3rd resistance 173 that is connected in series with the 3rd electric capacity 150.The operating frequency of electric ballast 110 is only continuing the influence that ignition phase just significantly is subjected to the 3rd inductance 170 and the 3rd electric capacity 150, the impedance that the 3rd inductance 170 and the 3rd electric capacity 150 and being used for mates fluorescent tube 190 with driving power switch 155 up to providing fluorescent tube 190 to operate power demands.First diode 175 and the 4th resistance 180 are to be serially connected with between second output of the control end of power switch 155 and rectifier circuit 115.First diode 175 is the unidirectional current conducting runnings that are used for carrying out from second output of rectifier circuit 115 to the control end of power switch 155.Second diode 185 is coupled in second output of the 5th node 131 and rectifier circuit 115, is used for carrying out the unidirectional current conducting running from second output to the, five nodes 131 of rectifier circuit 115.Thermistor 132 is intended to be in the start-up period, and supply on restriction is to the driving power of power switch 155.Details are as follows for the circuit operational function of light-source system 100 shown in Figure 1.
Second inductance 125 and second electric capacity 140 are combined as the resonant circuit in order to starting fluorescent tube 190, when this resonant circuit when start-up period is lighted fluorescent tube 190, flow through the electric current of second inductance 125 and second electric capacity 140 in addition in order to second filament 193 of heating fluorescent tube 190, carry out the Fast starting running according to this.In addition, flowing through the electric current of first inductance 120 at start-up period then can be in order to first filament 191 of heating lamp pipe 190, in like manner also can carry out the Fast starting running according to this.On the other hand, second inductance 125, the 3rd inductance 170, second electric capacity 140 cooperate the impedance of fluorescent tube 190 with the 3rd electric capacity 150, can be used to be combined as a plurality of phase shifters to provide self-vibration formula electric ballast required positive feedback mechanism.
When power switch 155 switches to cut-off state by conducting state, the current i of the power switch 155 of flowing through xTransfer to and flow to first electric capacity 130.That is, current i xWhen switching to cut-off state, power switch 155, can not cause the immediate current changing condition for continuous.Second diode 185 is to be used for when power switch 155 operates in the reverse-conducting pattern, by by-pass current i D2With protection power switch 155, wherein the reverse-conducting pattern is that the output corresponding to power switch 155 is a forward bias voltage drop, and earth terminal is the operating mode of reverse bias.Second electric capacity 140 and the 3rd electric capacity 150 are to be used for the load voltage of fluorescent tube 190 is carried out the dividing potential drop running, make the cross-pressure of the 3rd electric capacity 150 reduce to the voltage that is suitable for driving power switch 155.The damping action of the 3rd resistance 173 can reduce the circuit running quality factor by second electric capacity 140 and the 3rd capacitive divider that electric capacity 150 is formed, and is used for making start-up period to equate in fact because of tube impedance changes the phase difference that causes with lasting ignition phase.In addition, first diode 175 can be a general purpose diode, be about the long charge-storage time (charge-storage time) of 2 microseconds (micro second) by it, can be according to this carry out zero voltage switching (zero voltage switching at the control end of power switch 155; ZVS) running.Switch the control end that transient voltage inhibitor (switching-transient voltage suppressor) is coupled in power switch 155 because first diode 175 and the 4th resistance 180 can be combined to, be pressed on the control end of power switch 155 to regulate being supplied to the driving power of power switch 155 so the 4th resistance 180 can be used to set suitable negative bias in addition.From the above, the overload that electric ballast 110 can be avoided taking place fluorescent tube 190 drives running (especially at start-up period), so but the useful life of significant prolongation fluorescent tube 190.Moreover the filament 191,193 that electric ballast 110 can heat fluorescent tube 190 rapidly in start-up period to be to carry out the Fast starting running, therefore further useful life of prolonging lamp tube 190.On the other hand, drive,, also can protect power switch 155 to prolong its useful life so can prevent that also power switch 155 from bearing excessive voltage stress because electric ballast 110 can avoid operating on overload.
When electric ballast 110 has just begun by alternating current input power supplying 101 drivings in start-up period, the direct voltage that rectifier circuit 115 is exported is to be used for via first resistance 145 and second resistance 165 to provide starting power switch 155 required Dc bias, wherein the i.e. control end of substrate bias power switch 155 according to this of first resistance 145.The electric current that note that first inductance 120 of flowing through also can be used for heating first filament 191 except being used for the bias voltage as previously mentioned.When power switch 155 in start-up period by behind the suitable bias voltage, electric ballast 110 can be carried out the vibration running to produce the AC driving signal, but this AC driving signal is heat filament 191 not only, 193, also can operate, and provide high voltage drop to light fluorescent tube 190 in the two ends of fluorescent tube 190 according to the high quality factor of circuit.Because the employed semibridge system current transformer of prior art (half-bridge inverter), need be provided with trigger with the decapacitation circuit with in suitably power controlling switch running of start-up period, electric ballast 110 then need not be provided with to trigger with the decapacitation circuit and operate with power controlling switch 155, so the cost of the utility model electric ballast 110 can significantly reduce because of simplifying circuit structure.
When electric ballast 110 when start-up period vibrates, because this moment, fluorescent tube 190 inside still were high impedance status, so, can form phase reversal mechanism according to the circuit running of second inductance 125 and second electric capacity 140 from the junction (i.e. second filament 193) of the 5th node 131 to second inductance 125 and second electric capacity 140.Based on the demand of energy-efficient, as previously mentioned, the 3rd electric capacity 150 and second electric capacity 140 can be used to be combined as capacitive divider, and the voltage of dividing potential drop the 3rd node 183 is to provide driving power switch 155 required low-voltage according to this.Yet in the running of this capacitive divider, can be slightly leading in the phase place of the oscillator signal of the 6th node 146 because of the 3rd electric capacity 150 and second electric capacity 140.The 3rd inductance 170 and the 3rd electric capacity 150 can be combined to resonant circuit, its resonance frequency is lower than the operating frequency of electric ballast 110, in order to the phase place of delay oscillator signal in start-up period, and then compensation is leading because of the phase place that running caused of capacitive divider.In addition, as previously mentioned, it is the long charge-storage time (for example about 2 microseconds) of general purpose diode that first diode 175 can utilize it, to carry out the control end that zero voltage switching operates on power switch 155.Second resistance 165 can be used to the input resistance of firm power switch 155 in addition, so although operating temperature change or use different assembly manufacturing process, be early-fixed corresponding to the input resistance of the control end of power switch 155, or small resistance change rate only arranged.
When electric ballast 110 vibrates in continuing ignition phase, because this moment, fluorescent tube 190 inside were low impedance state, the circuit running of second inductance 125 and second electric capacity 140 only can cause a little phase lag of oscillator signal, that is do not form phase reversal mechanism, and in the feedback path of the 5th node 131 to the 6th nodes 146, as previously mentioned, still can make the phase place of oscillator signal slightly leading because of the circuit running of second electric capacity 140 and the 3rd electric capacity 150.Because the 3rd inductance 170, the 3rd electric capacity 150 and second electric capacity 140 can be combined to resonant circuit, and its resonance frequency is lower than the operating frequency of electric ballast 110, so in fluorescent tube 190 inside is under the low impedance state, the 3rd inductance 170, the 3rd electric capacity 150 and second electric capacity 140 can be in order to compensate the phase lag deficiency of oscillator signal at the control end of power switch 155.In like manner, in continuing ignition phase, it is the long charge-storage time (for example about 2 microseconds) of general purpose diode that first diode 175 still can utilize it, to carry out the control end that zero voltage switching operates on power switch 155.
By the negative resistance property that utilizes fluorescent tube 190, the electrical power change that is fed into fluorescent tube 190 can be suppressed, that is electric ballast 110 can further provide the power of lamp tube regulatory function.For example, when fluorescent tube 190 causes overload power because of too high drive current, the impedance meeting of fluorescent tube 190 reduces (tube impedance when promptly being lower than normal load power), so being fed into the AC driving voltage of signals at fluorescent tube 190 two ends will reduce, thereby reduce the oscillating voltage signal of the control end be fed into power switch 155, and then reduce the driving power that is supplied to fluorescent tube 190.Because existing electric ballast mainly is to utilize the saturation magnetization coil that is connected in series with fluorescent tube so that the load current regulation mechanism to be provided, or utilize the control end voltage of Low ESR assembly with the power-limiting switch, and the lamp tube power supply of electric ballast 110 mechanism is because of having the power of lamp tube regulatory function, can change so that more stable lamp tube power supply to be provided, so required voltage of prior art or current adjustment mechanism need be set by the power of lamp tube that the 101 input changes of inhibition alternating current input power supplying cause.Yet in start-up period; the power of lamp tube regulatory function of electric ballast 110 is not done in order to guard lamp pipe 190; so the thermistor 132 of tool positive temperature coefficient just is set especially at Section Point 182 and 184 of the 4th nodes, is used for limiting driving to power switch 155 to increase the service life.In addition, the setting of thermistor 132 all operates because of detecting continuously with the direct current of second filament 193, so can be avoided reducing the detecting reliability because of short circuit interacts corresponding to two sensing points that the direct current of first filament 191 and second filament 193 is detected continuously by corresponding load point and corresponding sensing points corresponding to first filament 191.
The direct voltage that rectifier circuit 115 is exported note that when first filament 191 burns, owing to can't be fed into the output of power switch 155 to set up bias voltage, so electric ballast 110 can automatic halt circuit running.In like manner, when second filament 193 burnt, then direct voltage also can't be fed into the control end of power switch 155 to set up bias voltage, so also halt circuit running automatically of electric ballast 110.In addition, when the 3rd inductance 170 or second resistance, 165 generation open circuit incidents, still can't set up bias voltage to power switch 155, so also halt circuit running automatically of electric ballast 110.In other words, when the part assembly generation open circuit incident of disintegration of filament incident or electric ballast 110 took place fluorescent tube 190, electric ballast 110 can operate with protective circuit by automatic halt circuit, and this is another important feature of electric ballast 110.
Fig. 2 is the work coherent signal oscillogram of electric ballast 110 shown in Figure 1, and wherein transverse axis is a time shaft.In Fig. 2, Vce and current i fall in the collection emitter voltage that basipetal signal is respectively power switch 155 x, that is hypothesis power switch 155 is a bipolar transistor.Please refer to Fig. 2 and Fig. 1, when power switch 155 in period Ton during conducting, the collection emitter voltage falls Vce and approximately remains on no-voltage, and current i xThen from a low current I LBe incremented to a high electric current I to be close to linear mode H, low current I wherein LBe actually negative current.
When working in the reverse-conducting pattern in the sub-period Δ Tm1 of power switch 155 at period Ton, current i xBe negative current, and collected current i cAlso be negative current, this moment, second diode 185 was to be used for by-pass current i D2, that is to say most current i x Second diode 185 of flowing through has only the current i of fraction xThe power switch 155 of flowing through delays the assembly catagen speed of power switch 155 according to this.When working in forward conduction mode in the sub-period Δ Tm2 of power switch 155 at period Ton, current i xBe positive current, and collected current i cEqual current i in fact x
When power switch 155 ended in period Toff, the change in voltage waveform that Vce falls in the collection emitter voltage roughly formed positive semifocal chord ripple, and current i xThen from high electric current I HBe decremented to low current I LNote that when power switch 155 switches to cut-off state current i xBe to flow to first electric capacity 130, promptly do not flow to power switch 155 from first inductance 120, in other words, by current i xThen flow to the running of first electric capacity 130, can avoid taking place the situation of electric current instantaneous variation.In the sub-period Δ Tm3 of period Toff, current i xWork in charge mode for positive current makes first electric capacity 130, the collection emitter voltage falls Vce and then boosts to a high voltage V by the charging running of first electric capacity 130 HIn the sub-period Δ Tm4 of period Toff, current i xBecome negative current and make first electric capacity 130 work in discharge mode, the collection emitter voltage falls Vce and then is depressurized to by the discharge of first electric capacity 130 running and is about no-voltage.Note that power switch 155 is to fall Vce when being about no-voltage at the collection emitter voltage, carry out by/conducting state is switched running, that is electric ballast 110 can operate on the zero voltage switching pattern with protection power switch 155.
The collection emitter voltage of tool periodic pulses falls Vce and feedbacks to the feedback path of electric ballast 110, vibrates according to this and produce chord wave type AC driving signal to be fed into fluorescent tube 190.In addition, as previously mentioned, a plurality of phase shifters by two ends assemblies such as a plurality of inductance of electric ballast 110 and a plurality of electric capacity are made up cooperate the impedance of fluorescent tube 190 again, and the oscillator signal of electric ballast 110 can be adjusted with the required accurate positive feedback running of incision self-vibration easily by the circuit running.
