System And Method For Controlling Maximum Output Drive Voltage Of Solid State Lilghting Device

View page
US Patent:
20140285103, Sep 25, 2014
Filed:
Aug 30, 2012
Appl. No.:
14/357626
Inventors:
Kaustuva Acharya - Bartlett IL, US
Raman Nair Harish Gopala Pillai - Arlington Heights IL, US
Yimin Chen - Palatine IL, US
Ajay Tripathi - Libertyville IL, US
International Classification:
H05B 33/08
US Classification:
315206
Abstract:
A programmable driver for driving a solid state lighting device includes a processing circuit, a voltage feedback loop and a power stage. The processing circuit is configured to determine a voltage reference signal based on a nominal current setting and a predetermined power limit. The voltage feedback loop is configured to receive the voltage reference signal and to determine a difference between a reference voltage indicated by the voltage reference signal and a drive voltage of the solid state lighting device. The power stage is configured to limit maximum output voltage for driving the solid state lighting device based at least in part on the determined difference between the reference voltage and the drive voltage of the solid state lighting device provided by the voltage feedback loop.

System And Method For Implementing Mains-Signal-Based Dimming Of Solid State Lighting Module

View page
US Patent:
20140176008, Jun 26, 2014
Filed:
Jul 24, 2012
Appl. No.:
14/234519
Inventors:
Raman Nair Harish Gopala Pillai - Arlington Heights IL, US
Kaustuva Acharya - Bartlett IL, US
Ajay Tripathi - Libertyville IL, US
Assignee:
KONINKLIJKE PHILIPS N.V. - EINDHOVEN
International Classification:
H05B 33/08
US Classification:
315291
Abstract:
A system for implementing mains-voltage-based dimming of a solid state lighting module includes a transformer, a mains sensing circuit and a processing circuit. The transformer includes a primary side connected to a primary side circuit and a secondary side connected to a secondary side circuit, the primary and second side circuits being separated by an isolation barrier. The mains sensing circuit receives a rectified mains voltage from the primary side circuit and generates a mains sense signal indicating amplitude of the rectified mains voltage. The processing circuit receives the mains sense signal from the mains sensing circuit across the isolation barrier, and outputs a dimming reference signal to the secondary side circuit in response to the mains sense signal. Light output by the solid state lighting module, connected to the secondary side circuit, is adjusted in response to the dimming reference signal output by the processing circuit.
