摘要: A driver is able to drive an analog interface module or a digital interface module, for example an LED module. A set of output pins is for connection to the module, with the same set of output pins used for an analog interface LED module as for a digital interface LED module. A detecting circuit detects whether the module is an analog module or a digital module, based on a signal at a control pin. The configuration of the driver is then set accordingly using an analog drive signal or using a digital communication interface for the LED module parameter collection. The driver further comprises a first switching circuit (20) for switching a supply voltage (V) to the power supply pin (VCC), and a second switching circuit (30) for coupling a supply voltage (V) to the control pin through a resistor (R6), wherein the detecting circuit (16) is configured to determine that the module is digital when the first switching circuit (20) supplies the supply voltage (V) to the power supply pin and the second switching circuit (30) isolates the supply voltage (V) from the control pin.

摘要: The invention describes a coded light modulation arrangement (1), adapted to be connected between a driver (31) and a LED (3), which coded light modulation arrangement (1) comprises input terminals (10) adapted to connect to the driver (31) and to receive a drive current (IDRIVE), an energy storage arrangement comprising a number of energy storage devices (E1, E2); a data input interface (12) realized to receive a data stream (D), said data stream (D) comprises a sequence of binary symbols comprising a logic high and a logic low; a switch arrangement comprising a number of switches (S1, S2) arranged to connect the energy storage devices (E1, E2) of the energy storage arrangement and to modulate the drive current such that, in a charging switch configuration corresponding to the logic low, a negative modulation current (INEG) is diverted from a drive current (IDRIVE) of the LED (3) to the energy storage arrangement; and, in a discharging switch configuration corresponding to the logic high, a positive modulation current (IPOS) is drawn from the energy storage arrangement and added to the drive current (IDRIVE) of the LED (3); and output terminals (11) adapted to connect to the LED (3) and to provide the modulated drive current directly to the LED (3) to emit the low and high radiant flux level as coded light (Lcoded) to be received by a photosensor of a coded light receiver device. The invention further describes a method of performing coded light modulation for light emitted by a LED (3), a luminaire; and a coded light communication arrangement (5).

摘要: The invention relates to a drive unit for a lighting element and an operating method for such drive unit and to a lighting element including such drive unit. By selectively providing power to a control unit of the drive unit using different voltages at different stages of the overall drive unit, there is an additional degree of freedom which may be used for improving power efficiency, in particular for reducing standby power consumption, while still meeting specific space and cost constraints.
