Abstract :
The design and operation of a fully-resonant high frequency controlled high-power supply for ultra violet lamps are presented. The merits of the system are contrasted with those of conventional current-controlled transformer systems. Control of the resonant system exhibits distinct advantages with increased efficiency and versatile application
