INTEGRATED IGNITOR BASE FOR CERAMIC METAL HALIDE LIGHT SOURCE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2010067604
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a light source assembly doing without the need of supplying high voltage by a ballast.
A PAR38 light source assembly is for use with a fixture having a PAR38 socket connected to a ballast circuit for generating a ballast voltage. An electrically insulating housing supports a PAR38 screw base and encloses a CMH lamp and a circuit board. The circuit board provides a high voltage to ignite or reignite the CMH lamp. The housing supports a reflector and a lens. The lens, the reflector and the housing form an electrically insulating enclosure so that the PAR38 screw base is to be the only electrically conductive portion.
