Abstract: A dimmable LED light unit, in particular for a passenger transportation vehicle, such as an aircraft, a road vehicle, a ship or a rail car, is disclosed that comprises a power input adapted to receive electrical power from a power source, at least one LED, and an LED drive and control module coupled between the power input and the at least one LED, wherein the LED drive and control module is adapted to receive an LED control signal indicative of a desired light intensity of the dimmable LED light unit.

Abstract: A multi-color light unit includes a plurality of lighting circuits, with each lighting circuit being coupled to a joint power terminal. The plurality of lighting circuits include a first lighting circuit, which includes a first current source, coupled to the joint power terminal, a plurality of first LED's, in operation emitting light of a first color, and a plurality of voltage drop diodes, in operation not emitting light, the plurality of first LED's and the plurality of voltage drop diodes being coupled to the first current source. The plurality of lighting circuits further include a second lighting circuit, which includes a second current source, coupled to the joint power terminal, and a plurality of second LED's, in operation emitting light of a second color, the plurality of second LED's being coupled to the second current source. The first current source and the second current source are of equal design.

Abstract: A dimmable LED reading light unit, in particular for a passenger transportation vehicle, such as an airplane, a bus or a ship, comprises an input which is connectable to a potentiometer that outputs a direct voltage having a voltage intensity corresponding to a selected potentiometer position; a load current source being configured to generate a predetermined load current; a current controller providing an operating current for operating at least one LED; and an electronic measuring and control unit; wherein the load current source and the current controller are connected to the input in parallel.
