Abstract: An ignition transformer (80) for generating an ignition voltage for a high-pressure gas discharge lamp (5) which has a high-pressure gas discharge lamp burner (50), comprising a ferrite core (81) and at least one primary winding (86) and at least one secondary winding (87), the at least one secondary winding (87) being formed from an insulated metal strip that is disposed on the ferrite core (81) in such a way that the end of the at least one secondary winding (87) that carries the high-voltage is disposed on the inside, wherein the ferrite core has the form of a film reel, and the secondary winding (87) is wound onto the ferrite core like a film.

Abstract: An ignition transformer for a discharge lamp is provided having a transformer core whose material and dimensions are selected in such a manner that the Curie temperature of the material after the ignition which is achieved by means of the ignition transformer can be achieved by a voltage drop across a secondary winding of the ignition transformer.

Abstract: Various embodiments relate to an integrated gas discharge lamp including a lamp base, a gas discharge lamp burner and an ignition electronics, wherein the integrated gas discharge lamp includes an operation electronics for operating the gas discharge lamp burner, and the gas discharge lamp burner, the ignition electronics, and the operation electronics are unseparably coupled with each other.
