The invention relates to an incorporation of a current limiting/regulating circuit on a luminaire board for ensuring that the luminaire board will automatically operate at its desired current after a replacement. Since the current control at the luminaire board causes an initial mismatch between the current supply of the driver and the demand of the luminaire board, the driver output voltage will drift towards the maximum output voltage of the driver. When the maximum output voltage is reached, the driver is configured to operate in constant-voltage (CV) mode, sense the output current and reduce its output current to the same value as consumed by current-controlled luminaire board. Alternatively, the driver may gradually reduce the setpoint of the output current until it just leaves the CV mode and stay at that setpoint. In this way, the driver will automatically operate at the correct current of a newly installed luminaire board without any action from the user.

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.
