  1. Compact Fluorescent Lamps (CFLs) • Advantages over incandescent lamps • Energy savings • Longer lifetime • Disadvantages over incandescent lamps • Higher initial cost • Not as easy to have 3-way control (dimming) ECE 442 Power Electronics

  2. Convert UV light to visible light Two-stage conversion Electrons collide with mercury atoms, causing photons of uv light to be released UV light converts to visible as it passes through the phosphor coating inside the glass tube Convert heat to light Burn a filament (wire) at very high temperature Fluorescent vs. Incandescent ECE 442 Power Electronics

  3. More efficient 25% of energy consumed generates light Lower lamp temperature Longer life Less efficient 5% of energy consumed generates light High filament temperature (350°F) 2,000 hour lifetime Fluorescent vs. Incandescent (cont.) ECE 442 Power Electronics

  4. Components and Assembly ECE 442 Power Electronics

  5. CFL Operation ECE 442 Power Electronics

  6. Electronic Ballast Block Diagram Blocks circuit-generated noise AC-to-DC Conversion DC-to-AC Conversion Ignite and Run the Lamp Feedback circuit to control lamp current ECE 442 Power Electronics

  7. Lamp Requirements • Current to pre-heat the filaments • Low-Frequency AC to DC Conversion (input) • High Voltage for Ignition • High-Frequency AC current during running • High-Frequency DC to AC conversion (output) ECE 442 Power Electronics

  8. Generate High-Frequency 50% duty-cycle AC Square Wave Resonant tank circuit filters square wave to a sinusoid and drives lamp AC-toDC Conversion ECE 442 Power Electronics

  9. At turn-on • During pre-ignition, the resonant tank is a series LC circuit with a high Q factor • Control IC sweeps the half-bridge frequency from maximum down towards the resonant frequency of the LC circuit • Lamp filaments are pre-heated as the frequency decreases and the lamp voltage and load current increase ECE 442 Power Electronics

  10. Lower the frequency until the lamp ignites Filaments are pre-heating To dim the lamp, increase the frequency of the half-bridge The gain of the resonant tank decreases and the lamp current increases The feedback circuit adjusts the half-bridge operating frequency ECE 442 Power Electronics
