Method of controlling ignition circuit and ignition circuit using the same
A method of controlling an ignition circuit to output an excitation voltage is disclosed. The ignition circuit is used to excite a discharge lamp and includes a transformer and a switch element which is connected to a primary winding of the transformer. The method of controlling the ignition circuit comprises steps of: (a) receiving a control signal which is set in accordance with a waveform characteristic of a predetermined excitation voltage to control an impedance of the switch element; (b) controlling a primary current in the primary winding or a primary voltage across the primary winding of the transformer by controlling the impedance of the switch element; and (c) generating the excitation voltage by the secondary winding of the transformer in accordance with the primary current or the primary voltage so as to excite the discharge lamp.
