Abstract:
Circuit arrangement for operation of discharge lamp comprising an input for connecting a supply alternating current voltage. A startup supply device is provided with an input and an output, where the input is connected to an input of a control circuit and the output is connected to another input of the control circuit. The startup supply device provides a startup supply voltage at the output of the startup supply device and hence reduces the stand-by losses.
Abstract:
An electronic component module includes at least one first multi-layer circuit board module (21, 22; 31, 32; 41, 42) and a cooling arrangement (23, 33, 43), the cooling arrangement (23, 33, 43) being in contact with an upper side of the circuit board module (21, 22; 31, 32; 41, 42). The cooling arrangement (23, 33, 43) is designed such that waste heat generated during operation of the electronic component module (2, 3, 4) is extracted in a lateral direction with relation to the arrangement of the circuit board module (21,22; 31, 32; 41, 42) by the cooling arrangement (23, 33, 43).

Abstract:
A radiation-emitting semiconductor component has an improved radiation efficiency. The semiconductor component has a multilayer structure with an active layer for generating radiation within the multilayer structure and also a window having a first and a second main surface. The multi-layer structure adjoins the first main surface of the window. At least one recess, such as a trench or a pit, is formed in the window from the second main surface for the purpose of increasing the radiation efficiency. The recess preferably has a trapezoidal cross section tapering toward the first main surface and can be produced for example by sawing into the window.
Abstract:
Various embodiments provide an electronic ballast for operation of at least one discharge lamp, with the electronic ballast having an apparatus for power factor correction with a voltage converter. The voltage converter itself includes an inductance, a diode and a switch. A control apparatus, which produces a square-wave signal as a control signal to the switch of the apparatus for power factor correction, includes an I regulator. This produces a first component of the on time of the control signal. In order to react to short-term power demands in the load circuit for example on ignition of the discharge lamp, an electronic ballast furthermore may include a power determining apparatus, which is coupled to the control apparatus, with the control apparatus being designed to vary the control signal as a function of the power consumed in the discharge lamp.
