  • Abstract
    This paper presents a self-excited electronic ballast for electrodeless fluorescent lamps operated at 10 MHz. The circuit employs only a few components including one switching device. The characteristics of the circuit are analyzed by use of the equivalent circuits. The proposed circuit shows good performance in the experiment at 10 MHz.
