A lamp driver circuit for supplying and controlling power to a lamp from a power supply subject to voltage variations. A semiconductor switch is disposed in series with the lamp and a current sensing resistor. A capacitor integrates the lamp current during ON time of the switch and power supply voltage during OFF time. A voltage comparator with hysteresis responds to the capacitor voltage to control the conductive state of the switch. Above a nominal supply voltage, the driver circuit begins to pulse width modulate the power supplied to the lamp with a duty cycle inversely proportional to the square of the supply voltage to maintain constant power to the lamp. As the supply voltage rises above a second predetermined level, the driver circuit ceases to supply power.
