Dual Monostable Drives Quasiresonant Inverter - 02/17/97 EDN-Design Ideas: A
zero-voltage-switching (ZVS)controller usually integrates a one-shot circuit,
embodied in a VCO system. An error amplifier monitors the output voltage and
adjusts the VCO's off-time to keep the output value at a constant level. Each
on-time period commences as soon as the primary voltage drops to zero,.....(design

Fluorescent Inverter - Build this 20 watt Fluoro Inverter, it drives two

Fluorescent Lamp Inverter - This inverter is very easy to construct, reliable,
and even powerful enough to light up a 15W florescent tube (if you cool your
transistor well). The only hard-to-find piece of this baby is the so-called yellow
inverter transformer. It's a miniature high frequency transformer that has a 25mm
x 20mm x 5mm ferrite core, 30 turns of primary, 15 turns of feedback, and 250
turns of secondary all concentric, wound on plastic frame than wrapped with a
'yellow' adhesive tape. If you can't find it in your local electronic shops then
search for old portable rechargeble florescent lanterns since they have at least
one yellow inverter. Of course you can wind a handmade transformer which would do
the same but it is a very difficult task when you don't have an original to
inspire and it will still need an appropriate ferrite core. ….(design added 11/08) |

Half Bridge Inverter has Variable Frequency - 10/09/97 EDN-Design Ideas:
Modern electronic ballasts require added features, such as high-frequency preheat
for filaments, nominal lamp-power control, and light-dimming capability. Because
the output inverter operates in resonant mode, you can control the power or
current of these ballasts simply by varying the switching frequency. To vary the
frequency,.....(design idea added 2/03) |
