ABSTRACT:
A variable frequency current control circuit for one or more discharge lamps comprises a push-pull oscillator inverter having an inductance in the DC supply, a non-resonant coupling circuit for coupling the output of the oscillator inverter to the lamp (or lamps) and cycle-by-cycle frequency control of the oscillator in response to a lamp current sensor thereby to automatically control the impedance of the lamp ballast in a sense to regulate the lamp current.
