    摘要: System and method for controlling a bleeder current to increase a power factor of an LED lighting system without any TRIAC dimmer. For example, the system for controlling a bleeder current to increase a power factor of an LED lighting system without any TRIAC dimmer includes: a first current controller configured to receive a rectified voltage generated by a rectifier that directly receives an AC input voltage without through any TRIAC dimmer; and a second current controller configured to: control a light emitting diode current flowing through one or more light emitting diodes that receive the rectified voltage not clipped by any TRIAC dimmer; and generate a sensing voltage based at least in part upon the light emitting diode current, the sensing voltage representing the light emitting diode current in magnitude.

    摘要: System and method for dimming control. For example, the system for dimming control includes: a signal converter configured to receive a dimming signal and convert the dimming signal to a converted signal associated with a first duty cycle; and a current controller configured to receive the converted signal and determine a magnitude of a current that flows through one or more light sources based at least in part on the converted signal; wherein the signal converter is further configured to: receive an analog voltage signal as the dimming signal; and convert the analog voltage signal to the converted signal based at least in part on the analog voltage signal; wherein the signal converter is also further configured to: receive a pulse-width-modulation signal as the dimming signal; and convert the pulse-width-modulation signal to the converted signal based at least in part on the pulse-width-modulation signal.
