ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates a diagnosis device for detecting an end of lamp life of a lamp, a diagnosis method, and a lamp ballast circuit using the same. The diagnosis device generates a reference lamp voltage by adding a predetermined reference voltage to a distributed voltage corresponding to a lamp voltage applied to a lamp and generates an integrated lamp voltage by integrating the reference lamp voltage. The diagnosis device compares the integrated lamp voltage with a normal range that an integrated lamp voltage has when the lamp is in a normal state.
