An electronic ballast is provided, including first a second input connections for connecting an alternating supply voltage; an EMC filter; a rectifier; a capacitor for providing the DC operating voltage for the output stage; and a power factor correction device, which comprises a number n of partial devices for power factor correction, as well as a control device for controlling the number n of partial devices, the power to be provided at the output of the power factor correction device being a total power currently to be provided, the power to be provided by the partial device i being a currently to be provided partial power of the partial device i. The control device is configured to control at least first and second partial devices as a function of the currently to be provided total power in such that their currently to be provided partial powers differ from one another. |
