ABSTRACT:
An electronic flash device includes a flash discharge tube, an IGBT, connected to the flash discharge tube, for controlling light emission, a trigger means for driving the flash discharge tube, an AC voltage generating means having an oscillation transformer for generating an AC voltage from an input voltage, and a power supply section for generating a gate drive voltage for the IGBT from a counter electromotive voltage generated at a terminal of a winding of the oscillation transformer. The electronic flash device further includes an IGBT drive voltage generating means, a first resistor connected between the IGBT drive voltage generating means and a gate of the IGBT, a capacitor having a terminal connected to the IGBT drive voltage generating means and having a capacitance larger than an electrostatic capacitance across the gate and an emitter of the IGBT, a second resistor having a terminal connected to the other terminal of the capacitor and the other terminal connected to the gate of the IGBT and a resistance smaller than that of the first resistor, and a third resistor connected between a ground terminal and a connection terminal between the IGBT drive voltage generating means and the first resistor.
