6. The illuminating lamp according to claim 1 , wherein the illuminating lamp is configured to acquire information from the illuminating device when the illuminating lamp is fitted to the holder.
7. The illuminating lamp according to claim 6 , wherein the information is information necessary to control the illuminating lamp.
8. The illuminating lamp according to claim 6 , wherein the information is information of another illuminating lamp formerly fitted to the holder and replaced by the illuminating lamp.
9. The illuminating lamp according to claim 6 , wherein the illuminating lamp is configured to change lighting condition of the first and second LED groups from each other under control of the first and second control sections, respectively.
10. An illuminating lamp used in an illuminating device having a holder, the illuminating lamp being fitted to the holder and comprising:
a first LED group arranged to emit white illumination light;
a second LED group which is arranged in a different region from the first LED group, the second LED group also arranged to emit white illumination light, wherein a section illuminated by the second LED group is different from that illuminated by the first LED group;
a first control section which controls lighting of the first LED group;
a second control section which controls lighting of the second LED group; and
a signal input section common to the first and second LED groups which inputs, from outside to the first and second control sections, a signal for controlling the first and second LED groups,
wherein the illuminating lamp is configured to change between a first condition in which the first and second LED groups are controlled in the same manner and a second condition in which the first and second LED groups are controlled differently from each other under control of the first and second control sections, respectively, and
wherein the illuminating lamp is arranged to be fitted interchangeably as a unit to the holder.
11. The illuminating lamp according to claim 10 , wherein
the first LED group has a plurality of LEDs arranged in a row, and
the second LED group has a plurality of LEDs arranged in a row on an extension line of the row of the first LED group.

a first power supply section which energizes the first LED group and the first control section; and
a second power supply section which energizes the second LED group and the second control section.
13. The illuminating lamp according to claim 10 , further comprising:
a first circuit board on which the first LED group and the first control section are mounted; and
a second circuit board on which the second LED group and the second control section are mounted.
14. The illuminating lamp according to claim 10 , wherein
the first LED group has a plurality of LEDs that are serially connected, and
the second LED group has a plurality of LEDs that are serially connected separately from the first LED group.
15. An illuminating lamp used in an illuminating device having a holder, the illuminating lamp being fitted to the holder, comprising:
a first LED group arranged to emit white illumination light;
a second LED group which is arranged in a different region from the first LED group, the second LED group also arranged to emit white illumination light, wherein a section illuminated by the second LED group is different from that illuminated by the first LED group;
a first control section which controls lighting of the first LED group;
a second control section which controls lighting of the second LED group; and
a signal input section common to the first and second LED groups which inputs, from outside to the first and second control sections, a signal for controlling the first and second LED groups,
