Techniques are disclosed for manipulating both colored and tunable white lighting systems in order to enhance visual comfort and allow an observer's eyes to recover from exposure to colored light. A lighting system may gradually adjust the color, color temperature , and intensity of various multi-chip LED panels in order to provide pleasant and acceptable changes in light settings. Instead of abruptly switching from one light setting to another, a lighting system may fade to an intermediate transition setting and subsequently fade to the final light setting, allowing an observer's eyes time to adapt to the new light settings. In one example, switching from blue light to a neutral white light may involve a gradual fading from blue light, to a cool white light, and then to a neutral white light, thus allowing the end user's eyes to adapt to the new light settings.

An inverter (102) for a lighting device including one or more solid state light sources is used to power a secondary load, such as a cooling device, sensor, or control with an auxiliary power circuit (100) that provides a selectable auxiliary voltage to the secondary load. The auxiliary power circuit (100) includes a voltage regulation circuit and a voltage selection circuit. The voltage selection circuit provides a feedback voltage to the voltage regulation circuit which his indicative of auxiliary output voltage. The voltage regulation circuit operates based on the feedback voltage and a reference voltage to adjust the auxiliary voltage to a level that differs from the input voltage from the inverter (102).

Techniques and user interfaces (UIs) are disclosed for controlling a solid-state luminaire (100) having an electronically adjustable light beam distribution. The disclosed UI may be configured, in accordance with some embodiments, to provide a user with the ability to control, by wireless and/or wired connection, the light distribution of an associated solid-state luminaire (100) in a given space. The UI may be hosted by any computing device (300), portable or otherwise, and may be used to control any given light distribution capability provided by a paired luminaire (100). In accordance with some embodiments, the user may provide such control without need to know details about the luminaire (100), such as the quantity of solid-state lamps, or their individual addresses, or the address of the fixture itself. In some cases, the disclosed techniques may involve acquiring spatial information of the space that hosts the luminaire (100) and/or providing user-selected distribution of light within that space.

摘要:
Techniques are disclosed for independent control of individual LED strings driven from a single AC current source. A lighting driver circuit includes a DC-AC inverter with series resonance that provides a current that may be split into multiple currents for driving multiple LED assemblies (LED1, LED2, LED3). Current splitting transformers (T1, T2, T3) may be used to divide the current from the AC source, and the amplitude of the current from the AC source may be determined by a microcontroller. In some cases the current splitting transformers provide galvanic isolation to the LED assemblies. The multiple LED assemblies may be controlled by a number of switches (S1, S2, S3) that may independently activate the individual LED assemblies based on the duty cycle of multiple PWM signals provided to the switches by the microcontroller. When all of the PWM signals output from the microcontroller are in an off-cycle, the current source may be turned off.
