Abstract: An LED driver is provided with transient protection circuitry to satisfy dielectric testing requirements. An embodiment of the driver includes a fuse coupled between an AC input and a DC power source, and first and second electrolytic capacitors coupled across the DC power source. Respective circuits including a transient voltage suppressor and a current limiting resistor are coupled in series across each of the electrolytic capacitors. The transient voltage suppressors have breakdown voltage thresholds slightly below a full rated output for the DC source, wherein a sensed short condition across one of the first and second electrolytic capacitors causes a short circuit across the DC source and thereby disabling of the LED driver prior to failure of the other electrolytic capacitor. The current limiting resistors further are configured to avoid causing the LED driver to be disabled for transient overvoltage conditions in which neither of the electrolytic capacitors is shorted.

Abstract: A DC-to-AC inverter provides power to a DC-to-AC converter via an isolation transformer. The DC-to-AC converter drives a DC load. A sensing circuit on the primary side of the isolation transformer senses the current flowing through the primary winding of the transformer. A capacitor is connected across the primary winding in parallel with the magnetizing inductance of the primary winding to form a parallel L-C combination. The capacitance of the capacitor is selected with respect to the magnetizing inductance such that the parallel L-C combination resonates at a nominal steady-state operating frequency of the DC-to-AC inverter, which causes the current through the primary winding to be proportional to a current through the DC load. The current through the primary winding is sensed and provided as a feedback signal to the DC-to-AC inverter to cause the DC-to-AC inverter to adjust the operating frequency to maintain the current at a desired magnitude.

Abstract: An LED driver circuit and a method prevent LED turn-off flash when input power is lost to the driver circuit. The driver circuit includes a DC-DC converter that provides an LED drive voltage to an LED load. A voltage drop sensing circuit detects the loss of input power and discharges a filter capacitor that provides operating power to a controller in a DC-DC converter. The controller turns off to halt the operation of the DC-DC converter before the voltage provided to the LED load decreases to a turn-off threshold of the LED load. The DC-DC converter cannot recharge a load capacitor across the LED load. Thus, once the LEDs in the LED load turn off, the LEDs remain off until the input power is restored.

Abstract: An LED driver tuning system includes an LED driver configured to receive a tuning interface device at line and neutral mains inputs.

A tuning confirmation circuit is configured to generate an inverse of the predetermined sequence of digital pulses so the tuning device can confirm proper receipt of the signals.

Abstract: An area lighting control system is provided for a light fixture and occupancy sensors. In a pairing mode, the occupancy sensors transmit messages with respective unique addresses to the light fixture, which identifies an associated sensor network. Upon lapsing of the pairing mode, an operating mode follows during which the sensors transmit output signals representative of occupancy in the area, and the light fixture regulates respective light sources based on an occupancy state determined according to output signals received from the associated network. The output signals are transmitted according to pseudo-random time intervals in order to reduce wireless transmission collisions, and only upon determining no occupancy in the defined area. When signals are received from all sensors in the network during a predetermined time period, the light fixture dims the light sources, whereas otherwise the light fixture operates the light sources at full lighting state.
