HIGH FREQUENCY DIMMER CIRCUIT FOR HIGH INTENSITY, GASEOUS DISCHARGE LAMP ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A dimmer circuit for providing gate signal to a gated semiconductor connected for at least partial bypass operation of a ballast element of an HID lamp, the gate signal being derived from a high frequency voltage in a predetermined range, The high frequency voltage is separated from other frequencies and converted to a voltage proportiona1 to the frequency. The voltage is then converted to a pulse within the timed operational limits of the line voltage for gating the semiconductor, and hence producing a brightness of the lamp between predetermined limits of full dim to full bright. Preferably, the high frequency voltage carrying the control information arrives superimposed on the line voltage to thereby avoid having to use a separate set of leads to the lamp to provide light level control signalling.
