Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2046099A1] The invention relates to a lamp, comprising a fluorescent lamp (100) for the generation of illuminating radiation. The lamp comprises an electronic connection device (102) for providing an ignition voltage for the fluorescent lamp for activating the generation of illuminating radiation, the electronic connection device (102) comprises at least two switching transistors (Q1, Q2) for feeding current to a coil (L1) which develops an ignition voltage for the fluorescent lamp (100). The electronic connection device (102) has integrated therewith a control circuit (104) which measures the current of the at least two switching transistors (Q1, Q2) and, while in the process of measuring, the control circuit (104) detects whether an excessively high current is flowing through one or more switching transistors (Q1, Q2), whereby the control circuit (104) limits the excessively high current to a lower current level.
