Abstract

Disclosed is a circuit arrangement for supplying a lamp wattage to a high-pressure discharge lamp (Lp) in the form of an alternating current having an operating frequency. The alternating current is generated by a full bridge that is composed of two half-bridge branches. The lamp wattage can be adjusted via the phase which the two half-bridge branches have relative to each other. The lamp wattage is modulated by means of the transmission function of an interface if the operating frequency is frequency-modulated. Said modulation of the lamp wattage can be compensated by adequately correcting the phase.
