Zusammenfassung:Light source systems and methods of operating the light source systems are disclosed. A light source system may include a combination of two lighting modules in communication with each other. The lighting modules can operate in concert, in parallel, or as master or slave. A printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) of the light source system includes electrical circuitry to drive a set of light emitting diodes (LEDs). The PCBA can include a communication interface for communication amongst the lighting modules. The PCBA can also include an optical sensor to provide color spectrum feedback to a controller module for self calibration. A master PCBA can receive sensor feedbacks, such as thermal and optical feedbacks from a slave PCBA. The sensor feedbacks can then be used to tune a color spectrum of a slave lighting module including calibrating the slave lighting module.
