Inverter

A soft start circuit generates a soft start voltage which changes over time when light emission of an EEFL is started. A pulse modulator receives a feedback voltage that corresponds to the output voltage of an inverter and the soft start voltage, and adjusts the duty ratio of a pulse signal PWM such that these two voltages match one another using a feedback operation. A striking control circuit monitors an error signal which is asserted when an abnormal state occurs. In a case in which the error signal has been asserted at a detection timing after the soft start voltage has reached a target voltage, the striking control circuit resets and restarts the soft start circuit. A driver controls the switching of the voltage at the primary coil of a transformer according to the pulse signal received from the pulse modulator.

A pulse modulator generates a pulse-modulated signal by pulse-modulating and amplifying the amplitude component of an input signal. A low-pass filter filters the pulse-modulated signal from the pulse modulator, and generates an amplified amplitude signal which is obtained by amplifying the amplitude component. An error corrector generates a corrected amplitude signal by correcting an error of the amplified amplitude signal from the low-pass filter by using the amplitude component of the input signal. A mixing unit generates the output signal by mixing the corrected amplitude signal from the error corrector and the phase component of the input signal.
