  • Dear Andy,

    I want to know how to calculate the series inductance while designing an 14W Electronic Ballast.Please guide me on this.

    Earlies I got an equation from the application note AN02110 OF Philips by H.Simons.The equation is,

                                                              L = Rl. T

                                                          where L= Series Inductance to be calculated

                                                                    Rl = Lamp resistance

                                                                    t    =T/4a  where T= L / Rl

                                                                   T= 1/f     where f=frequency   and a=T/4t

     

    wheather it is correct or not.Please Help.

     

    With Regards
