Emergency lighting driver device for driving a lighting unit comprising at least one emergency lighting source, preferably a LED unit comprising at least one LED, wherein the emergency lighting driver device comprises an input terminal being configured to be supplied with a supply voltage; a battery connected in series to a transistor, wherein the series connection of the battery and the transistor is directly or indirectly connected in parallel to the input terminal, such that the battery is chargeable starting from the supply voltage; a LED driver connected in parallel to the series connection of the battery and the transistor, the LED driver having an output terminal for driving a LED load; and a control unit being configured to feedback-control the current through the LED load by controlling the LED driver and being configured to apply a pulse signal to the transistor for controlling the charging of the battery. Thereby the emergency lighting driver device is configured to assume an operation mode in which: the battery is charged by applying the pulse signal to the transistor from the control unit, while the LED load is driven, wherein the emergency lighting driver device is configured to delay the pulse signal such that the rising edge(s) and/or falling edge(s) of the pulse signal have a transition time of at least 0.5 seconds, preferably at least 1 second, more preferred more than 1.5 seconds and preferably less than 3 seconds; and/or wherein the pulse signal is fed through a low pass filter unit of the emergency lighting driver device delaying the transition time of the rising edge(s) and/or falling edge(s) of the pulse signal before feeding it to the transistor.

The present invention relates to a circuitry useable to protect and reliably charge a rechargeable battery, even from a zero-volt state, and is particularly useful when employed in an implantable medical device. The circuit includes two charging paths, a first path for trickle charging the battery at a relatively low current when the battery voltage is below a threshold, and a second path for charging the battery at relatively higher currents that the battery voltage is above a certain threshold. A passive diode is used in the first trickle-charging path which allows trickle charging even when the battery voltage is too low for reliable gating, while a gateable switch (preferably by PMOS transistor) is used in the second higher-current charging path when the voltage is higher and the switch can therefore be gated more reliably. A second diode between the two paths ensures no leakage to the substrate through the gateable switch during trickle charging. The load couples to the battery through the switch, and preferably through a second switch speicifically used for decoupling the load.
