  • Publication number: 20130076247
    Abstract: An illuminating apparatus is disclosed. The illuminating apparatus includes a detecting unit, an illuminating unit, and a control unit. The illuminating unit includes multiple illuminating sets and a switching unit for adjusting a connection relationship among the illuminating sets. The detecting unit is for detecting an inputted power supply received by the illuminating unit while the control unit is coupled to the detecting unit and the switching unit. The control unit based on a detected inputted power supply controls the switching unit according to a predetermined setting parameter, so as to ensure a conducting voltage of the illuminating unit to vary according to a variation in the inputted power supply.

  • Publication number: 20130015773
    Abstract: An illuminating apparatus adapted to receive an input power which is a pulse DC includes a lighting unit, a detecting unit and a controlling unit. The lighting unit includes a plurality of lighting sets and a switching unit. The switching unit may be used to cause the lighting sets interconnected in a serial fashion and/or in a parallel manner. The detecting unit detects a state of the input power. The control unit couples the detecting unit and the lighting unit, and controls the switching unit according to the detecting unit detecting the state of the input power. As such, the turn-on voltages of the lighting unit may adjust at different stages of the input power.
