A high frequency ballast for a metal halide lamp comprises a controller, a switch, and an oscillator. The controller selectively enables and disables the oscillator via the switch to ignite the lamp. The switch selectively alters an inductance of the inductor to switch between a first frequency of the oscillator and a second frequency of the oscillator different than the first. The controller monitors a current of a power supply loop of the oscillator and a voltage of the oscillator and determines a duty cycle as a function of the monitored voltage and current. The duty cycle is indicative of the percentage of time that the oscillator is to operate at the first frequency versus the second frequency.

Un régulateur haute fréquence destiné à une lampe aux halogénures métalliques comprend un contrôleur, un commutateur et un oscillateur. Ce contrôleur active et désactive ledit oscillateur de manière sélective par lintermédiaire du commutateur dans le but dallumer la lampe. Le commutateur modifie de manière sélective linductance de la bobine dinduction pour que loscillateur puisse passer dune première fréquence à une seconde fréquence, et inversement. Le contrôleur surveille le courant dune boucle dalimentation électrique de loscillateur ainsi que la tension de ce même oscillateur, et il définit un cycle de service en fonction de cette tension et de ce courant surveillés. Ce cycle de service indique pendant combien de temps loscillateur doit fonctionner à la première fréquence et à la seconde.
