Abstract :
The shortcomings of the model presented by Wu et al. (see ibid., vol. 44, p. 428-31, 1997) are pointed out and an improved SPICE-compatible equivalent circuit that dodges the limitations is presented. It is shown that the proposed model is useful in emulating the fluorescent lamp response to a change in excitation frequency
