摘要： A lighting apparatus (100) includes one or more first LEDs (202) for generating a first spectrum of radiation (503), and one or more second LEDs (204) for generating a second different spectrum radiation (505). The first and second LEDs are electrically connected in series between a first node (516A) and a second node (516B), between which a series current (550) flows with the application of an operating voltage (516) across the nodes. A controllable current path (518) is connected in parallel with one or both of the first and second LEDs so as to at least partially divert the series current, such that a first current (552) through the first LED(s) and a second current (554) through the second LED(s) are different. Such current diversion techniques may be employed to compensate for shifts in color or color temperature of generated light during thermal transients, due to different temperature-dependent current-to-flux relationships for different types of LEDs.

摘要： Disclosed are devices and related methods for optimally extending the range of light output of solid-state light sources, particularly at minimum light levels, through a power converter that includes a phase detector, a processing unit and a switch. The phase detector is configured to receive a voltage signal and to detect rising edges of waveforms of the voltage signal. The processing unit is configured to initiate a predetermined shutdown period in response to each detected rising edge. The switch is configured to provide a control signal that deactivates the power converter during the shutdown period, preventing the power converter from providing power to the solid state light unit during the shutdown period.

摘要： A method is provided for detecting and correcting improper operation of a lighting system including a solid state lighting load. The method includes detecting first and second values of a phase angle of a dimmer connected to a power converter driving the solid state lighting load, the first and second values corresponding to consecutive half cycles of an input mains voltage signal, and determining a difference between the first and second values. When the difference is greater than a difference threshold, indicating asymmetric waveforms of the input mains voltage signal, a selected corrective action is implemented.

摘要： A method is provided for controlling a power converter (220) to provide a uniform dimming range to a solid state lighting load (240) independent of a type of dimmer. The method includes detecting maximum and minimum phase angles of a dimmer (204) connected to the power converter (220) during operation of the solid state lighting load (240), and dynamically adjusting an output power of the power converter based on the detected maximum and minimum phase angles of the dimmer. The adjusted output power of the power converter adjusts a high end level of light output by the solid state lighting load at the maximum phase angle to match a predetermined high end value and adjusts a low end level of light output by the solid state lighting load at the minimum phase angle to match a predetermined low end value.
