The invention provides a discharge lamp lighting apparatus. The apparatus comprises a first DC power supply circuit for converting an AC line voltage to a DC voltage, an inverter circuit provided with a switching element and a transformer, thereby the DC voltage supplied from the first DC power supply circuit is converted to a high frequency voltage for lighting a discharge lamp by an on-off switching operation of the switching element, an inverter controller for controlling the high frequency voltage output of the inverter by controlling the on-off switching operation of the switching element, a second DC power supply circuit for supplying a second DC voltage to the inverter controller through a power input end of the inverter controller, the second DC power supply circuit being provided with a detection winding inductively coupled to the transformer, thereby the second DC voltage being obtained by rectifying an induced current in the detection winding.
