ABSTRACT:
A switched mode power supply for ignition and operation of a high-pressure discharge lamp (5). The switched mode power supply comprises a switching device (1), an inductor (2), capacitive buffer (3) and a rectifier (4) for producing a current through the lamp from an input voltage. In order to supply a switching signal to the switching device, the switched mode power supply is further provided with a control circuit (I). A detector circuit (20) provides current detection of the inductor current and at the same time serves to produce the switching signal.
