Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for operating LEDs (13), comprising a driver module (10) and an LED module (11) having at least one LED (13), which LED module (11) is controlled by the driver module (10), wherein the driver module (10) has a first connection (1), which is designed to feed the LED module (11) with a current, and has a second connection (2) is present as earth connection (GND), wherein the LED module (11) is fed with a current by the driver module (10) via a first connection (1) and a second connection (2) is present as earth connection (GND), characterized in that the driver module (10) temporarily lowers the voltage at the first connection (1) and monitors the voltage at the first connection (1) and is designed to evaluate a change in the voltage at said connection as a transfer of information from the LED module (11).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for operating LEDs, comprising a driver module and an LED module (11), which is controlled by the driver module (10) and has at least one LED. The LED module (11) is fed a current by the driver module (10) via a first connection (1), and a second connection (2) is present, preferably as a ground connection (GND). The device is characterized in that the LED module (11) is connected to the driver module (10) by means of a third connection (3), which is designed as a data channel, a voltage fed by the driver module (10) being applied to the data channel.
Abstract:
An LED converter (3) comprises a converter circuit (11) with potential separation (12). The converter circuit (11) has at least one controllable switching means (15). A control device (16) for switching the at least one controllable switching means (15) in a clocked manner is configured to modulate a switching frequency of the at least one controllable switching means (15) in order to transmit information across a potential barrier (12).
