A LED controller includes an image buffer to hold image data. An LED pixel forming a part of a large pixel array is activatable in response to image data, LDO state, and pulse width modulation module state. A logic module including a pixel diagnostic mode using an LDO bypass is connected to modify LDO state and allow direct addressing of the LED pixel for diagnostic purposes without needing to use image data from the image buffer.

A dimming circuit and a lighting device includes a signal processing unit having a first controllable switch connected to a to-be-processed dimming signal, a first port of a controller, and a first voltage signal; the to-be-processed dimming signal and the first voltage signal controlling turning-on/off the first controllable switch, the to-be-processed dimming signal being converted into a second voltage signal, and outputted from the second terminal to the controller; and the controller, extracting a corresponding dimming control signal based on change of the second voltage signal, and outputting the dimming control signal to a to-be-dimmed terminal. This circuit converts a electrical signal implements dimming control in conjunction with the controller, and the controller only processes weak electrical signals, thereby guaranteeing the reliability of the output voltage of the dimming circuit, and preventing the output voltage of the dimming circuit from harming the to-be-dimmed terminal.

A controller for controlling a light source module including a first LED array and a second LED array includes a power input terminal, a first power output terminal and a second power output terminal. The power input terminal is operable for receiving electric power from a power converter. The first power terminal is coupled to the first LED array, and the second power output terminal is coupled to the second LED array. The controller is operable for delivering the electric power to the first LED array via the first power output terminal in a first sequence of discrete time slots, and for delivering the electric power to the second LED array via the second power output terminal in a second sequence of discrete time slots. The first sequence of discrete time slots and the second sequence of discrete time slots are mutually exclusive.

A LED controller for an LED pixel array includes a switch K1 activated in response to a row and column select signal; a switch K2 activated in response to a pulse width modulation duty cycle; and a switch K3 providing a current source from Vbias.
