本文提出一應用於螢光燈管的單級高功因E類共振換流器電子安定器。電路的架構是由具有功因修正功能之降升壓轉換器與E類共振換流器所整合而成。整合後之安定器，僅使用一個主動功率開關。將此主動開關以固定頻率切換，且使降升壓轉換器操作於非連續電流模式，可在輸入電源端獲得高功率因數。本電子安定器採用脈波寬度調變方式，控制螢光燈預熱及啟動，藉由調整主動開關的導通率，可提供適當的預熱電流；透過適當的參數設計，可得到足夠高的點燈電壓，並使主動開關於零電流切換導通，承受較低的電壓以減少切換損失，提高電路效率；外加一控制電路，在預熱期間，完全消除熾熱電流，使燈絲達到適當預熱溫度，才啟動燈管，以延長燈管壽命。
本文採用螢光燈的等效電阻模型，應用基本波分析法，建立結合安定器與燈管之等效電路。以此等效電路為基礎，推導電路參數的設計方程式及推演其設計流程，據以設計一電子安定器，推動OSRAM PL-27W小型螢光燈管，進行電腦模擬，並實際製作電路量測。實驗結果證實此電子安定器，可達到所預期的性能。

A single-stage high-power-factor electronic ballast with class E inverter is proposed for driving the fluorescent lamp. The circuit configuration is obtained from the integration of a buck-boost converter for power-factor- correction (PFC) and a class E resonant inverter for ballasting. The integrated ballast circuit requires only one active power switch and simple control. Operating the buck-boost converter in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at a fixed frequency, the electronic ballast can achieve nearly unity power factor. With pulse-width-modulation (PWM), the electronic ballast can provide an appropriate filament current for preheating, a high voltage for ignition, and then a desired lamp current for steady-state operation. An additional control circuit is included to eliminate the glow current during preheating stage.
The operation of the ballast-lamp circuit is analyzed by fundamental approximation. Computer simulations are made and design equations are derived on basis of the power-dependent resistance model of the fluorescent lamp. With carefully designed circuit parameters, the active power switch can be switched on at zero current to reduce the switching losses leading to a higher efficiency.
An experimental circuit designed for a PL-27W compact fluorescent lamp is built and tested to verify the computer simulations and analytical predictions. Experimental results show that satisfactory performances can be obtained on the proposed electronic ballast.
