摘要： A monolithically integrated power device for driving electrical loads includes a power stage having a high-voltage bipolar transistor and a low-voltage auxiliary transistor cascade-connected and inserted between a first power supply terminal and a second power supply terminal of the device. The power device also includes a driver circuit for the power stage having an input connected to an input terminal of the device. In accordance with the present invention the device includes a circuit for protection thereof against an excessive temperature rise and controlling power down of the power stage. It includes specifically a temperature sensing circuit which generates a signal dependent on the temperature present in the device, a comparator circuit which receives this signal and compares it with a reference voltage and at least a first switch circuit generating an interdiction signal when the temperature in the device exceeds a preset maximum value and which is interlocked with an output of the comparator circuit and connected functionally through its output to the power stage. The device is advantageously usable in a fluorescent lamp driving circuit, that is to say in the so-called "lamp ballast".
