  • Patent number: 9835649
    Abstract: A reconfigurable load board clamp is disclosed. The reconfigurable load board clamp includes first and second slotted ends; first and second opposing sides laterally coupled to the first and second slotted ends; and a MCPCB pin board removably coupled to the first and second slotted ends. The pin board includes a card edge connector plugged into an end of the pin board and multiple spring-loaded pin connectors. In implementations, multiple pin boards may be removed and added to the reconfigurable load board clamp to form a pin array suitable for a particular load board.

  • Patent number: 8427063
    Abstract: A multicolored LED luminaire module is provided that can be controlled using a single driver and only two wires. The LED luminaire module comprises a plurality of LEDs and a sequencer. The sequencer connects each LED to the circuit in a predetermined order. Synchronously with the sequencer, the driver transmits a control signal comprising a time division multiplexed (TDM) signal that combines the driving currents for each LED into one TDM signal. The sequencer and TDM rate are sufficiently fast such that the light emitted by the LED luminaire appears to be the combined light from all the LEDs.
