UC1872 - Resonant Lamp Ballast Controller

Datasheet Summary

Description

The UC3872 is a resonant lamp ballast controller optimized for driving cold cathode fluorescent, neon, and other gas discharge lamps.

The resonant power stage develops a sinusoidal lamp drive voltage, and minimizes switching loss and EMI generation.

Features

  • Controls Different Types of Lamps: Cold Cathode Fluorescent, Neon, and Gas Discharge.
  • Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) of Push-Pull Drivers.
  • Accurate Control of Lamp Current.
  • Variable Lamp Intensity Control.
  • 1µA Disable Current.
  • 4.5V to 24V Operation.
  • Open Lamp Detection Circuitry.

Resonant Lamp Ballast Controller application INFO available UC1872 UC2872 UC3872 FEATURES • Controls Different Types of Lamps: Cold Cathode Fluorescent, Neon, and Gas Discharge • Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) of Push-Pull Drivers • Accurate Control of Lamp Current • Variable Lamp Intensity Control • 1µA Disable Current • 4.5V to 24V Operation • Open Lamp Detection Circuitry DESCRIPTION The UC3872 is a resonant lamp ballast controller optimized for driving cold cathode fluorescent, neon, and other gas discharge lamps. The resonant power stage develops a sinusoidal lamp drive voltage, and minimizes switching loss and EMI generation. Lamp intensity adjustment is accomplished with a buck regulator, which is synchronized to the external power stage’s resonant frequency.
