Abstract

An improved inductor-capacitor device and a power regulating circuit incorporating said improved device, the improvement including integrally formed terminals on the conducting foil which are supported by the dielectric insulating material that separates the strips of conducting foil, and the setting of the foil windings in a rigid structure by interlaying between each foil strip an insulating strip of dielectric material that is coated with a high temperature thermosetting or thermoplastic bonding cement having physical properties similar to the dielectric material. Two improved inductor-capacitor devices are interconnected in a power regulating circuit for a discharge lamp device wherein their separate capacitive and inductive reactance are combined, each device being connected in such a manner to more uniformly distribute current through the conducting layer of each device.
