Title:
高いルーメン維持および寿命末期調節の知識ベースドライバ装置
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5814924
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
A knowledge-based driver is provided for powering a solid-state light source with a constant current, including a memory that stores lumens per amp and volts per amp performance characterizations of the light source over time, and a controller that operates in a test mode to estimate the light source degradation based on voltage feedback obtained at a predetermined test current value, and to adjust the drive current in normal operating mode according to the estimated device degradation to implement constant lumens control without external optical feedback components.
