Abstract: A power control system for an illumination system has a power source to supply any one of a range of AC or DC voltages, a power conversion stage, one or more light emitting device(s) for illumination and/or wireless communication, a controller controlling an output stage to receive and send information to regulate the power and/or current to the light emitting device(s), and a programmable voltage clamping or linear regulator arrangement contained within the output stage that can be controlled to increase a dynamic dimming ratio of current and/or power through the light emitting device(s) and to enable power or current modulation for wireless optical communication of light emitting device(s). The power control system enables current and power to be provided to one or more attached light emitting device(s) with a vastly extended dynamic dimming range such that different light emitting devices can be powered using the same driver output stage(s).
