ABSTRACT:
An inverter driving scheme for detecting when an inverter is in or near a capacitive mode of operation. In response to being within a capacitive mode of operation, the switching frequency is immediately increased to its maximum setting. When a near capacitive mode of operation is detected, the switching frequency is increased at a preset rate. During overvoltage conditions across the lamp combined with a near capacitive mode of operation, the switching frequency is immediately increased to its maximum setting.
