    摘要: A driver arrangement for a lighting unit. The drive arrangement comprises an independent first driver mainly for driving a first output capacitor and an independent second driver configured to mainly driving the second output capacitor. The driver arrangement is configured to allow an independent first driver to charge the second output capacitor when one or more predetermined criteria are met.
