Provided is a buck-boost converting circuit including an LED current regulator and bypass switches. The buck-boost converting circuit includes switches coupled in a matrix form in order to individually control a plurality of LEDs connected in series, an LED current regulator, and a circuit capable of buck-boost conversion.

A lighting module includes a heat sink with a sidewall and a partition defining two cavities, a LED light source disposed in one cavity to emit light, a driver module disposed in the other cavity with driver circuitry to provide electrical power to the light source, and an optical assembly to provide a desired emission profile. The optical assembly is field-changeable and includes a cover lens with snap-fit connectors to facilitate removal and replacement. The optical assembly further includes either a reflector coupled to the cover lens or an optical lens coupled to the heat sink via an optic holder. In some examples, the driver circuitry facilitates dimming of the light source. The heat sink also dissipates heat generated by the light source and the driver circuitry to maintain desired operating temperatures and thereby facilitate increased light output.

This light-emitting element drive control device (100) comprises: a drive logic unit (113) which performs a drive control of a switch output stage (N1, D1, L1) for dropping an input voltage (VIN) to an output voltage (VOUT) and supplying a light-emitting element therewith; a charge-pump power supply unit (a) which generates a step-up voltage (CP) higher than the input voltage (VIN); and a current detecting comparator (114) which receives a supply of the step-up voltage (CP) and the output voltage (VOUT) as power supply voltages, and generates control signals (SET, RST) for the drive logic unit (113) by directly comparing a current detection signal (Vsns) corresponding to an inductor current (IL) of the switch output stage with a peak detection value (Vsns_pk) and a bottom detection value (Vsns_bt).

Systems and methods are provided to transmit a data encoded power signal to addressable devices. A data signal includes address and command data that varies between logical states. A controller provides a low loss rectified power signal. The controller further provides data within the power signal by forming a positive polarity rectified power waveform corresponding to data in a first state and a negative polarity rectified waveform signal corresponding to data in a second state using substantially loss-less circuitry.

An LED driver that is operable with two different types of power source originally designed for a high-intensity discharge lamp. The LED driver directs current of an input power provided by the power source down a first current path if it is determined that the power source comprises a functional ignitor. The LED driver directs current of an input power provided by the power source down a second current path if it is determined that the 5 power source does not comprise a functional ignitor.
