Novel self-oscillating class E ballast for compact fluorescent lamps.

Novel self-oscillating class E ballast for compact fluorescent lamps.

A new, self-oscillating, class E ballast, well matched to low cost fluorescent lighting systems, is the focus of this paper. Precise analytical expressions are derived; valid for any duty ratio or circuit Q. This mathematical model is the basis for the design methodology. A qualitative analysis of t...
