Abstract

Vorgeschlagen wird eine Schaltung zum hochfrequenten Betrieb zumindest einer Lampe mit einem aktiven Oberwellenfilter mit zumindest einem kapazitiven Pumpzweig mit einem Pumpkondensator (C1; C2) zur Energierückführung zu einem Glättungskondensator (C4) von einem lampenseitigen Anschlußpunkt zwischen einschließlich einem Mittenabgriff des Gegentaktfrequenzgenerators und einer ersten Lampenelektrode, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß zwischen einem Punkt zumindest eines Pumpzweiges, der von dem Mittenabgriff des Gegentaktfrequenzgenerators aus hinter dem Kondensator (C1; C2) des Pumpzweiges liegt, und einem der Außenabgriffe ein Trapezkondensator (CT1; CT2) vorgesehen ist und somit der oder die Pumpkondensatoren des oder der Pumpzweige die einzigen direkt kapazitiv belastend an dem Mittenabgriff des Gegentaktfrequenzgenerators angeschlossenen Kondensatoren sind und/oder kein der Lampe im Betriebszustand unmittelbar parallel geschalteter Resonanzkondensator (C6) zur Lampenzündung vorgesehen ist.

Figure 00000001
A circuit is proposed for high-frequency operation of at least one lamp with an active harmonic filter with at least one capacitive pump branch with a pump capacitor (C1; C2) for energy return to a smoothing capacitor (C4) from a lamp-side connection point between including a center tap of the push-pull frequency generator and a first lamp electrode, characterized in that a trapezoidal capacitor (CT1; CT2) is provided between a point of at least one pump branch which is located behind the capacitor (C1; C2) of the pump branch from the center tap of the push-pull frequency generator, and one of the outer taps and thus the pump capacitor or pumps of the or the pump branches are the only capacitors connected directly to the center tap of the push-pull frequency generator and / or none of the resonance capacitors (C6) connected directly in parallel in the operating state for lamp ignition marriages.
