UBA2015P reference design 120 V (AC)
This type of topology with inductive heating is used in many commercial ballasts whose
power exceeds 25 W, making it a cost-effective application.
The lamps are connected in parallel.

4.2.2 Lamp end of life detection
IEC asymmetrical power test: The End-Of-Life (EOL) resistor REOL is increased (manually
controlled rheostat of 1 k) until the ballast shuts down. A rheostat is a two-terminal
variable resistor. See IEC-61347-2-3 Section 17.3 where this test is described. When the
EOL voltage exceeds the thresholds of the internal window comparator, the slow fault
timer (CPT pin) starts.
