Abstract :
This paper presents a design methodology, analysis, and practical considerations of LCLC resonant converter for multiple lamp operation ballast. According to the basic requirements of multiple lamp operation ballast (MLOB), the design procedure can be outlined to determine resonant parameter. Consequently, independent MLOB can be achieved under voltage-source half-bridge LCLC resonant converter with zero voltage switching (ZVS). Finally, some experimental results obtained from a prototype are shown to verify the theoretical discussion.
