Abstract: A programmable LED constant current driver circuit for driving LEDs at constant current and dimming the LEDs using standard, off-the-shelf dimmers is provided. The current driver circuit of the present disclosure includes a temperature compensation feature which controls the on time for the LEDs based on a measured temperature of the current driver and associated circuits. In another embodiment, the current driver circuit is designed to receive a 24 VAC input and drive one or more LEDs in a transformer-based system dimming system.

Abstract: An integrated circuit device for comparing the state of a large number of inputs (i.e. "discretes") against any one of a plurality of selectable voltage levels. The compared data is examined in a 3.times.3 matrix format. In a redundant mode, comparators are utilized in a triple-redundant configuration to obtain a consensus on input states, at three successive time intervals, raising a flag when consensus fails. Inputs, whether in a redundant or non-redundant mode are distributed along three different sides of a rectangular-shaped substrate to prevent catastrophic mechanical failures. In the redundant mode, discretes are compared using a voting technique such that when all three levels are the same, an error free status is provided, whereas a two-out-of-three vote is interpreted as correct but with an indication that the discrete being monitored requires further checking.
