A driving circuit for providing a control signal to a power semiconductor device for providing power to a filament lamp, said driving circuit comprising an oscillator for generating said control signal. The driving circuit may further comprise a soft start circuit which controls said oscillator so as to avoid excessive current in said lamp at start-up; a voltage compensation circuit which controls said oscillator so as to compensate for variations in load; a shutdown circuit for shutting down and automatically restarting said oscillator in response to a fault condition; an adaptive dead time circuit which controls said oscillator for providing cool running of said power semiconductor device; and/or a dimming circuit which controls said oscillator for driving said lamp. The driving circuit and its control circuitry may be implemented in an integrated circuit.
