Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2523534A2] Apparatus and methods are provided for tuning the color of an LED-based lamp (100) to a desired color or color temperature. The lamp (100) can include two or more independently addressable groups of LEDs associated with different colors or color temperatures. The color (or color temperature) of the output light is tuned by controllably dividing an input current among the groups of LEDs. An optimal division of the input current is determined based on a linear interpolation between measured values of color or color temperature produced by at least two different divisions of the input current. Tuning can be performed once, e.g., during manufacture, and the lamp (100) does not require active feedback components for maintaining color temperature.
