  • Patent number: 7053561
    Abstract: The current through the components of a half-bridge of an electronic ballast is intended to be limited during the starting phase. For this purpose, the gate of a half-bridge transistor (T2) is driven by a current limiting circuit (D1, D2, D3, T3, C3) in such a way that the current through the transistors (T1, T2) is limited during the starting phase, whereas it remains unlimited during the glow phase and burning phase of the lamp (LA).

  • Publication number: 20050127836
    Abstract: The invention relates to an incandescent lamp having an increased activating effect, in which a greater emission in absolute terms is achieved in the spectral range having a circadian effect owing to spectral filtering, on the one hand, and measures for compensating for the luminous flux losses, on the other hand, given a lamp output power and luminous efficiency which overall remain substantially the same. This spectral range has physiological effects on the human body.

  • Publication number: 20050088116
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a circuit for starting or operating discharge lamps which are designed for dielectrically impeded discharges. In this case, it is established in advance, with the aid of an overvoltage protection circuit and test power pulses, whether the discharge lamp is connected.
