摘要:
A method for supplying power to a plurality of light generators (CH1, CH2, CH3) which emit respective chromatically different light radiations that can be mixed with one another to produce a mixed light radiation by selectively activating said generators with respective supply powers (P1, P2, P3) over respective activation intervals (T1, T2, T3) included in an activation period (T), provides for: identifying (102) at least one pair of generators (CH1, CH2; CH2, CH3) for which the sum of the respective activation intervals (T1, T2; T2, T3) is less than said activation period (T), and temporally offsetting the activation (106) of the generators (CH1, CH2; CH2, CH3) in the one pair, avoiding simultaneous activation.

In various embodiments, a device for controlling power supply towards at least one light source comprising a load having a value variable as a result of switching of at least one switch coupled thereto, is provided. The device may include: a power supply set controllable to determine the intensity of the current fed towards said load; a current feedback loop sensitive to the intensity of the current fed towards said load, said current feedback loop connected to said power supply set to maintain the intensity of the current fed towards said load upon variation of said load; and a voltage control sensitive to the voltage across said load, said voltage control likewise connected to said power supply set to maintain the intensity of the current fed towards said load upon variation of said load.
摘要:
Dimming a light source such as a LED over a dimming range (0%-100%) involves adjusting at least one of the intensity (I) and the duty-cycle (DR) of a current flowing through the light source. The dimming range includes at least one portion (L%-H%; 0%-H%) where the light source is fed with a current whose intensity (I) is switched with a given duty cycle (DR) between a non-zero on value and zero, the non-zero on value being a fraction of said rated value (Irated), whereby joint CC and PWM dimming is achieved.
