Also, a fluorescent lamp is designed as to have dynamic resistant. The method proposes simple mathematical calculations instead of complex mathematical calculations and the approaches based one of the component of resonant tank, which arbitrary chosen value. Also it is capable to provide accurate values, which can be employed in new types to ballasts. Natural frequency and damping ratio, which are parameters of the method, are chosen switching frequency, 0.707, respectively. Transfer function of electronic ballast circuit is calculated by means of proposed method. After that, components of the circuit are find out. 220 V(rms) voltage was achieved at ignition and obtained 30 W lamp power in state space operation. Electronic ballast design and a fluorescent lamp are made of using Matlab/Simulink interface and the results are presented.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessResearch Subject Categories::TECHNOLOGYArticle
