Description
Summary:A high-frequency electronic ballast with high power factor and low harmonic distortion for driving fluorescent lamps is presented in this project. This project presents an efficient, small sized, and cost-effective power factor correction scheme for high-frequency series resonant electronic ballast. This project also presents electronic ballast with no boost feature and with dimming capability and effect of harmonics on input current The proposed scheme introduces additional small energy tanks processing partial power and thus can perform the function of input current shaping. The power factor correction (PFC) is required to shape input line current.
