Flash lamp is made with experimental parts removed from a disposable camera flash circuit. Xenon try to use what I think is easily affordable experiment. AC100V to a voltage doubler rectifier, DC voltage of about 270V is derived. This voltage is R2, C3 is charged through a short period of time as well. At the same time the trigger capacitor C4 is charged gradually through R3, the trigger diode (D3) reverse conducting diode voltage reaches the trigger (ON) to take the trigger discharge Xenon (Flash) to. The discharge voltage drops and the discharge of C3 Stop and C3 will be charged again. The Xenon flash in sequence by repeating it. This circuit is supposed to flash about 20 times per second.

Xenon that this class of power can be injected continuously until it is at best 0.5 ~ 1W. 1W and the second is energy rather 1J. If you flash discharge capacitor 1?F, once the discharge energy E = 1 / 2 × C × V two more, 36mJ so, it becomes a cycle that must be less than 27 times per second discharge.

The flash lamp circuit utilizes components salvaged from a disposable camera, primarily leveraging a xenon flash tube. The circuit operates by converting an AC input of 100V into a high DC voltage, approximately 270V, through a voltage doubler rectifier arrangement. The capacitors C1 and C2 are employed to smooth the half-wave rectified output, ensuring stable voltage levels for downstream components.

Capacitor C3 is charged rapidly through resistor R2, allowing for quick energy storage necessary for the flash discharge. Simultaneously, capacitor C4 is charged at a slower rate through resistor R3, which controls the timing of the trigger signal. The trigger diode D3, which is a reverse conducting diode, allows for the discharge of C4 to initiate the xenon flash. The discharge process is rapid, and once the voltage across C3 drops below a certain threshold, the charging process resumes, enabling the xenon flash to operate in a repetitive cycle, achieving a flash rate of approximately 20 flashes per second.

The circuit is designed with safety in mind. Resistors are included to ensure that the capacitors discharge when the circuit is powered off, minimizing the risk of electric shock. The choice of capacitor values, particularly C3, is crucial; it must be large enough to store sufficient energy for the flash while also allowing for rapid charging and discharging cycles.

The trigger mechanism is further refined by adjusting the values of R3 and C4, where a smaller time constant results in a faster trigger rate, enhancing the frequency of the xenon flashes. The xenon tube can deliver power in the range of 0.5 to 1W, with the stored energy in capacitors translating to a significant discharge energy, calculated using the formula E = 1/2 × C × V². This design effectively demonstrates the principles of high-voltage discharge and rapid energy transfer, making it suitable for applications requiring brief, intense bursts of light.Flash lamp is made ??with experimental parts removed from a disposable camera flash circuit.Xenon try to use what I think is easily affordable experiment.
