EMI Noise Prediction for Electronic Ballasts

The design of electromagnetic (EM) interference filters for converter systems is usually based on measurements with a prototype during the final stages of the design process. Predicting the conducted EM noise spectrum of a converter by simulation in an early stage has the potential to save time/cost and to investigate different noise reduction methods, which could, for example, influence the layout or the design of the control integrated circuit. Therefore, the main sources of conducted differential-mode (DM) and common-mode (CM) noise of electronic ballasts for fluorescent lamps are identified in this paper. For each source, the noise spectrum is calculated and a noise propagation model is presented. The influence of the line impedance stabilizing network (LISN) and the test receiver is also included. Based on the presented models, noise spectrums are calculated and validated by measurements.
