DESCRIPTION

The device is a monolithic high voltage integrated circuit designed to drive CFL and small TL lamps with a minimum part count.

It provides all the necessary functions for proper preheat, ignition and steady state operation of the lamp:

♦ variable frequency oscillator;

♦ settable preheating and ignition time;

♦ capacitive mode protection;

♦ lamp power independent from mains voltage variation.

Besides the control functions, the IC provides the level shift and drive function for two external power MOS FETs in a half-bridge topology.
