  • System and method to identify short circuiting current and open circuits in a semiconductor light matrix
    Patent number: 10537002
    Abstract: A system and method for operating a lighting array is disclosed. In one example, the system and method detect the presence or absence of short circuiting current flow through a light emitting device and provide an indication of the same. The system and method may also increase or decrease current flow through the lighting array to compensate for reduced lighting output or to reduce the possibility of lighting array degradation.
    Type: Grant
