Parameters(4) | Default | Remark |
Capacitance | 225pF | Electrode capacitance[F] The capacitance is devided amongh the two electrodes |
NegativeResistance[Ohm] | -10 | Negative voltage current Gas discharge relation |
Vignition | 1500 | |
Vburn | 1000 |
Function | The lamp ignites when the voltage accros the lamp is larger than Vignition. The lamp burns with an arc voltage equal to Vburn and a negative voltage current slope defiend by NegativeResistance | |
Special | Be carefull with specifying Negative Resistance. Start with 1, run a simulatio and check the current and voltage waveforms. The Negative Resitance is limited to -Vburn/Iburn After checking the waveforms you can me Negative resistance gradually negative, to meet the HCFL specifications. |
