System and method for controlling one or more light emitting diodes. For example, the system for controlling one or more light emitting diodes includes a current regulation circuit coupled to a cathode of one or more light emitting diodes. The one or more light emitting diodes include the cathode and an anode configured to receive a rectified voltage. Additionally, the system includes a control circuit coupled to the cathode of the one or more light emitting diodes. The control circuit is configured to receive a first voltage from the cathode of the one or more light emitting diodes, compare a second voltage and a threshold voltage, and generate a control signal based at least in part on the second voltage and the threshold voltage. The second voltage indicates a magnitude of the first voltage.

optoelectronic circuit intended to receive a variable voltage containing an alternation of rising and falling phases. The optoelectronic circuit includes light-emitting diodes and a switching device capable of allowing or of interrupting the flowing of a current through each light-emitting diode. Each light-emitting diode is covered with a photoluminescent layer. The photoluminescent layer covering at least one of the light-emitting diodes includes at least one first luminophore having a first decay constant and at least one second luminophore having a second decay constant different from the first decay constant.

A lighting system includes an LED downlight mountable to a ceiling, a driver, and an insulation displacement connector (IDC). Light from the downlight can be faced downward to project light or upward to reflect light off of the ceiling. The driver has an input with a first voltage and an output with a second voltage, the second voltage being lower than the first and being provided through a wire system extending from the LED driver. The IDC connects the downlight to the wire system. The lighting system can be changed from a first to a second configuration by at least one of adding an additional downlight using a corresponding IDC or removing an existing downlight using a corresponding IDC. The second configuration does not significantly affect a desired output range of light from any downlight or any LED circuit of any downlight that remains or preexists from the first configuration.

A rectifying arrangement for an LED driver comprising a rectifying circuit and a clamping arrangement provides a low-impedance path between input terminals of the rectifying circuit in response to an abnormal operation of the rectifying arrangement, such as an open circuit of one rectifying branch of the rectifying arrangement. The low-impedance path is maintained for a plurality of cycles of an AC power supply provided to the rectifying circuit, and can be maintained on a (semi-)permanent basis.
