摘要:
The present application claims a compact low cost topology solution of a ballast for a discharge lamp that can provide both high power factor and low total harmonic distortion with fewer components than prior art. The topology provides the feature of a low crest factor and quick start that increase both the lamp life and the number of starts for the product. By using Bipolar Junction Transistor instead of Field Effect Transistor as the main switches and also a lower value electrolytic, the cost and size are considerably reduced.

摘要:
In an igniter module housing (F) of an automotive headlamp assembly, an improved EMI shielding includes a thin coating (12) on the housing. This arrangement eliminates the need for separate EMI shielding components. The coating is electrically conductive, typically a metal such as aluminum, and may be sputtered, painted, or dipped onto the plastic substrate at a thickness of approximately 3 microns or less. The total weight of the aluminum coating is on the order of 1 milligram.

Light sources are presented in which lamp ballast or LED driver circuitry is disposed within a base assembly using integrated boards with components embedded between board layers and/or circular flex boards with pot core magnetic components and/or ASICs and thermally conductive board core materials with thermal vias, reflective mirrors, and/or potting materials to conduct heat out through the base to facilitate reduced form factors for lamps and/or LED light sources.
