複金屬燈以單脈衝點燈之方式啟動，可避免一般電子安定器採用持續高壓脈衝對燈管電極進行多次點燈所造成的弧光閃爍或電路元件損壞。然而，單脈衝點燈應用在低頻方波驅動燈管時，卻造成電弧接續上的困難。實驗結果顯示，當燈管電極崩潰瞬間，燈管等效電阻極小，近乎短路。在這個階段，安定器須確保燈管電流在第一個半週期內不致震盪通過零點。另一方面，當燈管電流因交流驅動而換向通過零點，燈管呈現近乎開路。此時，安定器必須給予適當的能量，使電弧在下半個週期能順利接續。本論文經由分析燈管電流在燈管電極崩潰導通後之暫態波形，與計算燈管功率在換流過程的變化，配合適當之電路參數，擬定啟動策略，使燈管電弧建立後不致斷弧而熄滅，並以一70 W 複金屬燈進行實驗，證實可以單脈衝點燈成功啟動。

This research attempts to ignite metal halide lamps once with a single-pulse to avoid the problems of uncomfortable light strobes and irregularly high voltage and current stresses on circuit components caused by multiple strikes in conventional electronic ballasts. Metal halide lamps with single-pulse ignition, however, have difficulty in sustaining the lamp arc when operated with a low-frequency square-wave current. Experimental results indicate that the lamp exhibits an extremely small equivalent resistance as the electrode gap has being broken down. In this stage, the ballast has to keep the lamp current not declining to zero in the first half cycle. On the other hand, the lamp acts like open-circuited during commutation when driven by an alternating current. A sufficient energy from the ballast is needed to continue the arc in the next half-cycle. The transition waveform of the lamp arc current after being broken down is analyzed and the required energy for sustaining the lamp arc is calculated accordingly. Based on the investigation results, a starting scenario with appropriately designed circuit parameters for single-pulse ignition can be figured out. The starting scenario has been experimentally implemented on a 70 W metal halide lamp to demonstrate that the metal halide lamp can be successfully started up with single-pulse ignition.
