Abstract (en)

A direct replacement for an ordinary domestic G.L.S. bulb consists of a low voltage tungsten-halogen lamp (6), which has a greater efficiency at low voltages, and an electronic circuit (11) for stepping down the mains voltage to a suitable level, all within a lamp replacement unit for fitting into an ordinary lamp socket. The electronic circuit includes a gate-turnoff thyristor (12) for switching the lamp into and out of the supply circuit and an i.c. (25) for triggering the thyristor at a desired phase angle of the mains supply (20).
