Methods and devices that employ thermal control of current to electrical components

Methods and devices are described that use one or more thermally responsive current-controlling elements (16) to regulate current flow to an electrical component, particularly a light source (12) such as an LED, Examples of such thermally responsive current-controlling elements include thermistors (...
