Embodiment Construction

[0035] Please refer to the accompanying drawings for a further description of the present invention.

[0036] The present invention proposes a segmented dimming control circuit for electronic ballasts of fluorescent lamps. When switching between bright and dark brightness levels, there is a time-settable transition segment brightness level. The transition segment brightness The level is fixed or gradually changed, which is controlled by a dimming control switch, a delay circuit and a dimming signal forming circuit.

[0037] Such as figure 2 As shown, when switching levels between bright and dark, when switching from bright to dark and from dark to bright, the brightness levels are all gradual.

[0038] Such as image 3 As shown, when switching levels between bright and dark, when switching from bright to dark and from dark to bright, the brightness levels are all fixed.

[0039] Such as Figure 4 As shown, when switching levels between bright and dark, when switching from...

Abstract

The invention discloses a segmented dimming control circuit for an electronic ballast of a fluorescent lamp. A time-settable transition segment brightness level is used for switching between bright and dark brightness levels, wherein the transition segment brightness level is constant or gradually changing, which is realized by a circuit control formed by a light adjusting control switch, a time delay circuit and the light adjusting signal. The segmented dimming control circuit for the electronic ballast for the fluorescent lamp has the following advantages that the segmented dimming mode using a transition segment with a constant or gradually changing brightness for switching between a high brightness and a low brightness can weaken the visual impact of the brightness switching operation on eyes of a user, and the circuit is simple and practical.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a dimming control circuit of an electronic ballast for a fluorescent lamp used for lighting, in particular to a dimming control circuit for a segmental dimming electronic ballast for a fluorescent lamp. Background technique [0002] In order to meet the different application requirements of fluorescent lamp lighting, various dimming forms that can control the brightness change of fluorescent lamps have emerged as the times require. Different from the brightness control of the incandescent lamp by changing the effective voltage applied to the lamp, the brightness control of the fluorescent lamp is achieved by changing the operating frequency of the electronic ballast driving the fluorescent lamp and thus changing the current flowing through the fluorescent lamp. [0003] The core of the fluorescent lamp dimming ballast can be attributed to generating a low-level DC control signal to control the frequency of the ballast inverter....
