PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To suppress creaking generated in an inverter circuit of a PWM type fluorescent tube lighting device. SOLUTION: The fluorescent tube lighting device comprises a fluorescent tube, and an inverter means including at least a boosting means, a resonance means, and a switching means. A PWM signal is inputted in the inverter means, thereby controlling light adjustment. In the fluorescent tube lighting device, a light adjusting means regulating at least the starting time of the PWM signal added to the inverter means is provided. Preferably, the starting time of the PWM signal is about 10 to 100μseconds. COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
