ABSTRACT:
The invention pertains to a switchmode DC to AC converter, and particularly to a master-slave half-bridge converter. The slave half-bridge power converter is controlled by a lower power self-oscillating half-bridge master converter. More particularly, the invention pertains to a high frequency ballast for gas discharge devices, especially, for high pressure sodium lamps, completed by a high voltage ignition apparatus. A pair of self-saturated electronically switched transformers controlled by a low power current source provide a power controlled and frequency modulated high frequency ballast for the gas discharge devices.
