Abstract
A transformer (10) which forms part of a lamp ignition switching device has at least its primary winding (12) composed of a foil. Moreover, the transformer has an air core. In this way a satisfactory coupling, which is also maintained at high temperatures, is obtained between the primary (12) and the secondary (11) winding. This switching device is very suitable to be built in a lamp and to ignite the lamp at a high temperature.
