Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2945466A2] An LED lighting device includes a slave driving stage and a master driving stage. The slave driving stage includes a first luminescent device and a first current controller for providing a constant current setting in an ON phase. The master driving stage includes a second luminescent device and a current control unit having a second current controller and a current envelope controller. The second current controller provides a current envelope in the ON phase. The current envelope controller sets a level of the current envelope according to a rectified AC voltage. The driving current is regulated by the first current controller according to the constant current setting when the constant current setting is smaller than the level of the current envelope, or by the second current controller according to the current envelope when the level of the current envelope is smaller than the constant current setting.
