Dimming the lamp

Dimming level and lamp turn-on

During the start-up sequence the frequency always goes from fmax to fmin, regardless of the

dimming level, and it is only after this that the lamp’s turn-on frequency moves towards

higher frequencies. The delay during which f = fmin allows the lamp to turn on, but has the

drawback of causing a "flash" that can be unpleasant. As the minimum length of this delay

depends on the type of lamp, it is better to set it as low as possible, finding the best

compromise.

The easiest way to set this delay is to act on the amplifier’s compensation, that is, on C9: the

higher C9, the longer the delay and the easier the lamp turn-on. Values up to 200 nF and

more are commonly used.
