  • MULTIPLE GAS DISCHARGE LAMP INTERLEAVE TRIGGER CIRCUIT
    Publication number: 20080150443
    Abstract: Embodiments are disclosed for apparatus and methods for increasing the reliability of the flash discharge response in pulsed gas discharge lamps. One embodiment includes a system comprising two gas discharge lamps having cathodes and anodes connected in parallel to a common power source. The lamps are alternatingly triggered such that the discharge from a first lamp reduces residual partial ionization of the gas in a second lamp and vice-versa.
