The present application discloses an identification circuit for a power-line carrier signal. During signal transmission on a power line, the amplitude change and duration of a voltage signal on the power line are identified and then decoded into corresponding data, so as to reduce dependency on a power supply voltage during signal identification, and prevent the signal identification rate from decreasing as a result of an increase in the transmission distance, thereby reducing requirements for a system power supply.

A method for controlling an amount of power delivered to an electrical load may include controlling an average magnitude of a load current towards a target load current that ranges from a maximum-rated current to a minimum-rated current in a normal mode, and controlling the average magnitude of the load current below the minimum-rated current in a burst mode. The burst mode may include at least one burst-mode period that comprises a first time period associated with an active state and a second time period associated with an inactive state. During the burst mode, the method may include regulating a peak magnitude of the load current towards the minimum-rated current during the active state, and stopping the generation of at least one drive signal during the inactive state to control the average magnitude of the load current to be less than the minimum-rated current.
