Abstract

This paper presents simulation and experimental results of a power converter within an experimental apparatus for high pressure discharge (HID) lamp evaluation, consisting essentially in a class D amplifier with transformer isolated output, for load power range in the hundreds of watts. Guidelines for the system are presented, as well as amplifier plant modeling and the proposition of a control system.
