The UBA2024 is a half-bridge IC and 550 V lamp controller. This device is equipped with 9 ohm switches that espouses standard CFL applications up to 15 W. The number of external components can be reduced to only 17 (compared to the 27 typically required by a discrete driver solution) with high level of integration, and the IC supports NXP’s […]

Neon lamp or tube lamp need high voltage to trigger the ionization of the gas inside the tube. After the ionization occurs, the voltage drops around 40 volts to maintain the current. To drive a neon lamp (fluorescent lamp) using 12 volts battery, we need to convert the DC voltage to high AC voltage. High voltage is needed to trigger […]
