ABSTRACT:
A full-bridge inverter comprises two pairs of switching transistors and is conditionally operable to self-oscillate in either of two modes: a first mode wherein one of the two pairs of switching transistors self-oscillates in manner of a half-bridge inverter and powers a first load, and a second mode wherein both pairs of transistors self-oscillate in manner of a full-bridge inverter and then powers a second load in addition to the first load.
Such a dual-mode inverter has utility in situations where a load has to be pre-conditioned with a relatively small amount of conditioning power (such as cathode heating power) before being ready to absorb its main operating power. Typical examples of such loads are magnetrons and fluorescent lamps.
