Digitally addressable DALI dimming ballast

A digitally addressable digital dimming ballast has been developed. It conforms to DALI standard requiring very few parts and operates at very low power. Applications include building management or studio lighting where it is desired to control single or groups of lamps for conserving energy, performing lamp maintenance or creating prefect light quality. The design includes the digital dimming ballast, the code of the microcontroller and a platform to control the ballast by PC.
