Abstract
A method for operating an optoelectronic assembly which includes at least one component string having at least one section, wherein the section includes at least one light emitting diode element, is provided. According to the method, the section is supplied with electrical energy, the supply of the section with electrical energy is interrupted, an input of the section is electrically coupled to an output of the section, wherein the section is short-circuited via the electrical coupling of the input to the output, a maximum value of an electrical discharge current which flows via the section is detected, and the fact of whether the section of the component string has a short circuit is determined depending on the detected maximum value.
