Abstract :
A SPICE compatible simulation methodology for analyzing open and closed loop high frequency electronic ballasts for fluorescent lamps 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
