DISCRETE COMPONENT LINEAR CIRCUIT OF CIRCUIT
A discrete component linear circuit of a line is provided, including a switch S1, a fuse F1, a varistor MOV1, a rectifier DB1, a triode Q1 to a triode Q6, and a resistor R1 to a resistor R6, wherein an input end of the switch S1 is connected to an input end L of a power supply for input, and an output end of the switch S1 is connected to an input end of the fuse F1. When an input voltage increases, a current increases, and resistance values of a thermistor T1, a thermistor T2 and a thermistor T3 increase due to temperature rise. The resistance increases synchronously when the voltage increases, so that the current is maintained in a relatively stable interval. Therefore, the voltage bearing capacity when an LED lamp works is increased, and more LED lamps may be used in parallel.
ILLUMINATOR
An illuminator includes: a light emitter including a light-emitting diode; a temperature sensor configured to detect a current temperature of the light emitter; and an illumination controller configured to adjust a drive voltage being supplied to the light emitter in accordance with the current temperature. The illumination controller includes a reference temperature storage in which a reference temperature is stored in advance and is configured to adjust the drive voltage by detecting the current temperature from the temperature sensor on a constant time cycle and comparing the current temperature with the reference temperature.

METHOD OF PROVIDING DOSES OF LIGHT SUFFICIENT TO DEACTIVATE DANGEROUS PATHOGENS THROUGHOUT A VOLUMETRIC SPACE OVER A PERIOD OF TIME
A method of inactivating one or more pathogens in an environment. The method includes providing light from at least one lighting element of a lighting device installed in the environment, the at least one lighting element configured to provide light toward a target area in the environment, the provided light having at least a pathogen-inactivating first component in a first range of wavelengths of 400 nanometers to 420 nanometers.
