Description
Standby --> Currentless
Break the flow by detection of a
fundamental error
New start by switch off, on the
mains voltage or by EN -->
Break the flow by over
temperature
Restart the flow by power
supply error
Flag signalize the lamp state:
- H -> break phase
- L -> PFC + HID charge phase
- blink -> Ignition phase
- H -> steady-state
VPFC runs to 400V.

If VPFC will be reach 350V the
flow switched in the next mode
The lamp controller start to
charge the VOUT up to VPFC for
lamp ignition
A short circuit will be detected
continuous. If IOUT > Ishort jump the
flow directly to break.
Ignition try start if VOUT is higher
than 290V
Burst for lamp ignition will be
pulsed for a duration of 1200s.
After this time without ignition
goes the flow to break.

AMG-LM302 Revision: A
29. Jul. 2010
The CMD lamp is ignite
successful when the lamp
voltage is lower than 160V
Successfull ignition starts 300s
tracking timer to test the lamp
voltage VOUT. Is fail goes the flow
to break.
Overdrive mode (M4) stabilize
the plasma of the lamp arc with
a constant current. The voltage
across the lamp is a function of
the lamp temperature. If the lamp
power is equal 150W the lamp
slides to the next mode.
Steady-state mode (M5) is
power constant mode.
Monitoring the state of the HID
lamp in the course of the steady-
state continuous operation
