The invention relates to methods for the operation of an operating device for illumination means, such as for example an electronic ballast (EVG) for gas discharge lamps. The operating device has a power factor correction circuit (PFC) for the reduction of harmonics at the input current take-up, which is constituted for example in the form of a switching regulator (up converter) with a clocked switch.

(EVG) for gas discharge lamps. The operating device thereby has a power factor correction circuit (PFC) for the reduction of harmonics at the input current take- up. The working frequency of the power factor correction circuit is modulated upon application of a
DC voltage at the input side.
The power factor correction circuit (PFC) can be constituted in the form of a switching regulator with a clocked switch. For the reduction of interference the switch can be so clocked that its switch-on period and/or its switching frequency is modulated upon the application of a DC voltage at the input side.
The modulating frequency of the power factor correction circuit (PFC) can thereby be selected such that the output voltage of the power factor correction circuit (PFC) sets an appropriate level of ripple. In other words the modulation of the PFC circuit 1s not controlled by the circuit itself nor an inter-bus regulation. Rather, the compensation of this "ripple" in the bus voltage (i.e. the intermediate circuit voltage which is provided by the power factor correction circuit and applied to the storage capacitor) is effected for holding constant of the power consumption of the illumination means by means of frequency variation of the inverter. The control unit can for this purpose detect in a manner known per se an operating parameter, such as for example the lamp current and the lamp voltage, and depending on this detection and a deviation from a desired value vary the frequency of the inverter.
/
The modulating frequency of the power factor correction circuit can be selected for example in a region between 15 Hz and 500 Hz, preferably between 90 and 130 Hz. As is known in the state of the art the modulation is linked with the zero crossings of the alternating voltage so that a modulating frequency of 100 Hz (Europe) or 120 Hz (USA) can be provided. With the invention, in contrast, the modulating frequency is freely adjustable and optimizable.
Of course, upon application of a DC voltage the modulation can no longer be triggered by zero crossings of the input voltage. In accordance with the invention it can therefore be provided that the modulation of the
PFC circuit is effected by means of a timer circuit, by means of which values are read out from a look-up table. These values are, as in the case of the state of the art, prolongation values, which are applied to the actual regulator value Ton Regulator of the control circuit. The regulator value Tox regulator is the thereby the switch-on time duration for the switch, which was calculated by a regulator for holding constant the output voltage of the PFC.
In accordance with the invention it can be switched over automatically to modulation by means of the timer circuit and the look-up table as soon as the operating device recognizes the application of a DC voltage. In principle, the automatic recognition of emergency light operation (application of a DC voltage) 1s already known from EP 490329 Bl. Reference is made to Fig. 4 there, reference signs C25 and R21.
The power factor correction circuit (PFC) can be operated in the so-called limit mode ("borderline mode") .
In accordance with the invention there is further provided a computer software programme product which provides for such a method when it runs on & computation device in an operating apparatus Or is implemented by hard wiring (ASIC).
Further, in accordance with the invention there is also provided a control component (microcontroller, ASIC etc.) for an illumination means operating device which is configured for providing for such a method.
The invention finally also proposes an operating device for illumination means.
Further features, aspects and advantages of the present invention will now be made clear with reference to the explanation of an exemplary embodiment. In the accompanying Figures there is shown:
Fig. 1 a circuit known from the state of the art (DE 101 28 588 Al), and
Fig. 2 a circuit in accordance with the invention.
It is to be understood that in accordance with the invention the circuit of Fig. 1 can be retained for the
AC operation. Fig. 2 shows cnly those components which are necessary for an operation with AC mains voltage.
Otherwise, in the two Figures, those components which g have the same reference signs correspond to one another.
To improve the interference spectrum of the circuit also in emergency operation (DC mains operation) the circuit in accordance with the invention has, as illustrated into Fig. 2, a control circuit 6 which recognizes the application of an AC or DC voltage by means of a signal 15, which reproduces the rectified input voltage U;, and a circuit 20. Thereby there can for example be employed a circuit which is in principle known from Fig. 4 of EP 490329 Al. This DC recognition circuit 20 controls a timing generator 8. This timing generator 8, so to speak, replaces the zero crossings of the mains voltage no longer available with DC voltage. The timing generator 8 therefore controls the reading out from a look-up table of the prolongation values for the switch-on time period of the switch Sl.
As is in principle known from the state of the art, in accordance with the invention, if appropriate, also the bus voltage Uz; is measured and fed back to the control unit 6 (bus voltage signal 16), in order - through variation of the switching frequency of the switch S1 - to regulate the bus voltage to desired value Uggr.
Thus, the regulation of the bus voltage yields a regulation value Ton regulator for the switch-on and switch-off period of the switch, which regulation value
Ton Regulator 10 accordance with the invention 1s acted upon with an additional value Ton noo changing periodically also in DC operation, to modulate the modulation depth and/or the switching frequency for the improvement in the interference spectrum.
This regulation of the bus voltage U; by means of detection of the bus voltage 16 and by the control system 9 is relatively slow in comparison with the modulating frequency or change of the switch-on time period ten of the switch S1 so that this modulation in the bus voltage Uz 1s not compensated and the bus voltage will have, in comparison to the switching frequency of the switch S1, a low-frequency ripple.
This ripple of the bus voltage is compensated for by the feedback of a parameter 19 reproducing the illumination means power (illumination means voltage, illumination means current, detection of the illumination power via an optical sensor or the like) as actual value and the control of the switching frequency of the inverter 4 for holding constant the illumination means power to a predetermined desired value.
In accordance with the invention the additional values
Ton asa read out from the look up table are loaded into a flash memory of the ASIC 6. These Ton asa values of the switching time prolongation block 13 are then added by the regulator 12 to the normal Ton regulator:
Ton = Ton add t* Ton regulator
Each Ton index 1s thereby set for a settable time period (a “sweep value”) and then the next index is selected from the look-up table. Through change of the sweep value the modulating frequency can be set.
