Start Pulse Generator - Barco FLM series Service Manual

28. START PULSE GENERATOR

Functionality
The purpose of the Start Pulse Generator (SPG) is to ignite the lamp with a burst of high voltage peaks. The SPG superimposes
high voltage peaks onto the normal dc start-up voltage of the lamp supplied by the Lamp Power Supply. Once the lamp is started up
and illuminating the high voltage is removed and the lamp voltage drops to the arc voltage. The high voltage peaks are added to the
lamp voltage by a superimposing transformer which is in series with the positive connection from the LPS to the lamp. The negative
connection from LPS to lamp is direct and is connected to the chassis at the lamp side. The full lamp current passes through the
secondary of the superimposing transformer.
