An illumination apparatus is provided for outputting a light of mixed colors in a desired color temperature by controlling light outputs from light sources. The illumination apparatus includes a light output setting unit for outputting a set signal presenting a set value for adjusting an output of the light of mixed colors, and a first filter for smoothing the set signal from the light output setting unit. The illumination apparatus further includes a light output adjustment unit for adjusting the light outputs from the respective light sources based on the set signal smoothed by the first filter, and a plurality of second filters smoothing signals outputted from the light output adjustment unit to the light sources, respectively. Each of time constants of the second filters is lower than that of the first filter.

An illumination apparatus includes: a series circuit of a thyristor and at least one load circuit connected across an AC power source; a current control circuit for adjusting an input current to be maintained at a predetermined level during a part or the whole of an ON period of the thyristor; and a short circuit for short-circuiting input ports of the load circuit to have a predetermined resistance during a part of the ON period of the thyristor and a part or the whole of an OFF period of the thyristor. The current control circuit and the short circuit are connected in parallel to the load circuit.

A cold cathode fluorescent lamp includes a glass bulb (16), a protective film (22) formed on an inner face of the glass bulb, and a phosphor layer (24) that overlaps the protective film and that contains blue phosphor particles (26B), green phosphor particles (26) and red phosphor particles (26). The glass bulb has been formed from soda glass, and the blue phosphor particles have been coated with a metal oxide (30). Also, the protective film is made of silica (SiO2). Since the protective film has been provided in the fluorescent lamp and since the blue phosphor particles, which readily deteriorate, have been coated with the metal oxide, a good luminance maintenance rate is obtained. In addition, although the glass bulb of the fluorescent lamp is made of soda glass, since the protective film is made of silica, the fluorescent lamp obtains an initial luminance equivalent to the initial luminance of a fluorescent lamp whose glass bulb is made of borosilicate glass.
