20100033101Electronic Ballast with Multimode Lamp Power Control - A control means has an adjustment function in a microprocessor to adjust variations in an output to a discharge lamp due to variations in components by correcting a duty ratio of a PWM signal for varying an operating frequency of an inverter circuit so that a detected value of a second detection circuit falls within a target range. The microprocessor switches paths to transmit the PWM signal between a path passing through a feedback circuit and a path passing through a voltage follower circuit by switches a switch circuit to supply the signal through the path passing through the voltage follower circuit in adjusting output variations in the preheating mode and the starting mode.02-11-2010
20100270932FAULT DETECTION AND SHUTDOWN CONTROL CIRCUITS AND METHODS FOR ELECTRONIC BALLASTS - An electronic ballast is capable of inhibiting ballast shutdown caused by erroneously determining a fault condition. The ballast includes a DC power supply circuit for outputting DC power, a power conversion circuit that appropriately converts DC power outputted by the DC power supply circuit and outputs it to a discharge lamp, a DC voltage droop detection circuit for determining existence/absence of a fault condition in the DC power supply circuit 10-28-2010
20100270949ELECTRONIC BALLAST WITH INPUT VOLTAGE FAULT CONTROL - An electronic ballast includes circuitry to prevent a switch from being damaged in the case where an abnormality occurs in an output voltage of an input power supply. A DC power supply control circuit has a zero current detection circuit that, when a current through an inductor becomes equal to or less than a predetermined current value, outputs a zero signal. A peak current detection circuit, when current through a switch the DC power supply circuit becomes equal to or greater than the predetermined current value, outputs a peak signal. A first drive circuit turns on the switch according to the zero signal, and turns off the switch Q10-28-2010
