Abstract :
A SPICE-compatible simulation methodology for analyzing open- and closed-loop high-frequency electronic ballasts for a fluorescent lamp was developed. The proposed procedure applies envelope simulation and makes use of the SPICE-compatible model of a fluorescent lamp. Experimental results validate the reliability of proposed simulation method
