Thanks Ante!

Thank you Ante for your effort, but this is not what I need, since the TEA2037A is a deflection circuit, while I need a practical application of TEA2018A which is a driver for a switching power supply.

Actually it is a B&W monitor from the french Minitel equipment. The TEA2018A is the control circuit for the switching power supply of the monitor. Like I said, the datasheet doesn't provide too much help, because the application schematics doesn't match exactly my case.

Has anyone a schematics of a power supply with TEA2018A? I found only the datasheet from ST, but the circuit diagram given in the datasheet doesn't meet entirely my case. Some reistors are burned and I am not able to read the color bar code. Pls help!

This is the schematics of a basic electronic ballast for a fluorescent lamp. It provides about 22kHz. Try to decrease the frequency by adjusting the R1 and C1 and you will get the lamp dimmed.
