  • Publication number: 20240172347
    Abstract: A lighting device includes a driver, a first light string, a second light string, a constant current controller and a pulse width modulation controller. The driver is configured to provide a DC driving current to a shunt node. The first light string is electrically coupled between the shunt node and a ground terminal, and the first light string is driven by a first pulsating direct current. The second light string and the constant current controller are electrically coupled in series between the shunt node and the ground terminal. The pulse width modulation controller is configured to provide a pulse signal to the constant current controller, and the constant current controller controls a pulse frequency of a second pulsating direct current supplied for the second light string according to the pulse signal.
