    Abstract: A lighting device that supplies current to light-emitting units includes: a DC-to-DC converter; a switch unit connected to the light-emitting units; and a control circuit which controls the DC-to-DC converter and the switch unit. The DC-to-DC converter includes: an inductor through which current from the DC-to-DC converter is provided to the light-emitting units; and a first switch element connected in series with the inductor and which switches ON/OFF. The control circuit includes: a zero-crossing detector that detects that current flowing in the inductor is substantially zero due to the first switch element switching OFF, and outputs a zero-current detection signal; and a switch controller that selects one of the light-emitting units and controls the switch unit to cause the current from the DC-to-DC converter to be supplied to the selected light-emitting unit when the first switch element subsequently switches ON, each time the switch controller receives the zero-current detection signal.

    Abstract: A lighting device includes: a first input terminal for receiving an AC voltage phase-controlled by a first phase-control dimmer; a first light source unit which emits light of a first color; a second light source unit which emits light of a second color different from the first color; a control circuit which controls a total amount of light emitted from the first and second light source units and the color of combined light including the light emitted from the first and second light source units. The control signal includes first and second control information. The first control information is for controlling either one of the total amount of light and the color of combined light, and corresponds to the conduction angle of the first phase-control dimmer. The second control information is for controlling the other of the total amount of light and the color of combined light.

    Abstract: In a lighting device, when determining that both of a first measuring value and a second measuring value are not an abnormal value, a controller is configured to control an output of a power converter based on the first and second measuring values. The first measuring value is a temperature inside a main body of the lighting device, sensed by a first temperature sensor. The second measuring value is a temperature of a light source, sensed by a second temperature sensor. When determining that at least one of the first and second measuring values is the abnormal value, the controller is configured to control the output of the power converter to another value that is different from a value of the output set based on the first and second measuring values.

    Abstract: A lighting apparatus includes a chopper circuit and a control circuit that controls the chopper circuit. The control circuit includes a determining unit that determines a duty ratio of a dimming signal, and an output control unit that outputs a drive signal. The control circuit outputs a drive signal from the output control unit according to a result of a determination by the determining unit and causes the solid state light-emitting element to be lighted in a normal mode. In the charging mode, the control circuit sets an average value of a current flowing through an inductor to be higher than in the normal mode and charges a smoothing capacitor until a voltage across the smoothing capacitor reaches a prescribed voltage. When power is supplied, the control circuit charges the smoothing capacitor in the charging mode and subsequently lights the solid state light-emitting element in the normal mode.
