Abstract: A method of and an apparatus for identifying an unknown system using an adaptive filter wherein the step size is subsequently supplied to the adaptive filter so that the identification error may be decreased. Value of the step size is calculated by using a gradient of power of error signal according to the LMS or LIM (learning identification method) algorithm, and limited by the previous value of step size. Further, when a sudden change in the error signal is detected, the step size can be re-setted or the limitation to the step size can be released.

Abstract: 1. A system consisting of a method and a preferred device suitable for carrying out the method according to the invention for time/voltage conversion is presented which determines voltage values which correspond to the duration of pulses. 2.1 Known systems of the type mentioned have inaccuracies in the time/voltage conversion as a result of which nonlinearities occur. 2.2 To avoid nonlinearities in the conversion, voltages of pulses, the duration of which is used for time/voltage conversion, are matched according to the invention to the variation of an auxiliary voltage which is used for forming an output voltage. This auxiliary voltage can be a ramp voltage emitted by a ramp voltage generator, or any other voltage which is present at the components of the device according to the invention. 2.3 The system according to the invention can be preferably used as part of an amplifier device which is constructed in thin-film technique and is used for driving a liquid-crystal display. 3.

IPC: H05B41/392
Filed: 1993-03-20
Abstract: An arrangement having a UV lamp (23) has a semiconductor controller (14, 15, 25) for influencing the electrical power supplied to this lamp (23) by means of phase-gating control of both the positive and the negative half-cycles. A high-reactance transformer (18) is connected between the semiconductor controller (14, 15, 25) and the UV lamp (23). During operation, said transformer supplies a starting voltage and a burning voltage for the UV lamp (23). The high-reactance transformer has a transformer core which is constructed from laminates and whose iron volume is increased by approximately 25 % or more in comparison with that of a high-reactance transformer for the same UV lamp but not having a semiconductor controller. This thus results in the paradoxical situation that the iron volume of the high-reactance transformer (18) must be increased in order to reduce the power supplied to the lamp (23). <IMAGE>
