Zusammenfassung:A copy machine comprises a fluorescent lamp inverter circuit for supplying a voltage necessary to light on a fluorescent lamp for exposing an original, an inverter control circuit for outputting an inverter drive signal of a first frequency to control the fluorescent lamp inverter circuit, a light modulation control circuit for outputting a light modulation drive signal of a second frequency to control a current flowing in the fluorescent lamp, and a synchronization circuit for synchronizing the inverter drive signal and the light modulation drive signal with each other by using a clock division circuit and a phase-locked loop (PLL) circuit. Thus, unevenness in exposing of the original is eliminated, thereby improving image quality.
