  • Publication number: 20120217892
    Abstract: An LED current PWM dimming module comprising: an input voltage regulator for regulating the constant direct current supplied by the LED driver power supply in order to maintain a fixed and stable supply voltage source to a timer-oscillator and a DC-DC buck converter; the timer-oscillator for generating a repetitive square wave electrical output to be fed to the DC-DC buck converter; and the DC-DC buck converter for producing a driving pulse-width-modulated (PWM) current output to power one or more LEDs from the repetitive square wave electrical output; wherein the timer-oscillator receives a control signal from an external dimming controller and adjusts the repetitive square wave electrical output frequency and duty cycle accordingly; and wherein the driving PWM current output frequency and duty cycle being varied in an open-loop manner.
