HYBRID DIMMING FOR LIGHTING CIRCUITS

A lighting circuit includes a light emitting diode (LED), a transistor that controls a current through the LED, and a controller integrated circuit (IC) that controls the transistor to vary a brightness of the LED. The controller IC has a dimming pin that receives a hybrid dimming signal from a dimm...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A lighting circuit includes a light emitting diode (LED), a transistor that controls a current through the LED, and a controller integrated circuit (IC) that controls the transistor to vary a brightness of the LED. The controller IC has a dimming pin that receives a hybrid dimming signal from a dimming input circuit. The dimming input circuit receives pulse width modulation (PWM) dimming signals and generates the hybrid dimming signal as a PWM dimming signal, an analog dimming signal, or both depending on the received PWM dimming signals.
