Abstract:
In at least one embodiment of the disclosure, a method for driving a discharge lamp includes changing a duty ratio of an AC current to be supplied between a first electrode and a second electrode of the discharge lamp in accordance with a predetermined pattern, and setting a current value when the first electrode operates as an anode during one cycle so as to be smaller than a current value when the second electrode operates as an anode during one cycle.
