Abstract
The present technology is a light device system and method for controlling a dimming function of a light emitting diode (LED) device. The system includes at least one LED light source, a switch connected with the LED light source, and a microcontroller in communication with the switch. The microcontroller receives a dimming signal from a dimming control and a production curve from an interface, and applying an output signal to the switch. The output signal is at least partially based on the production curve that is at least partially based on an input received by the interface. The interface is associated with software that allows a user to create a custom production curve, which can then be programmed into the microcontroller. The production curve replicates dimming characteristics of incandescent lighting by associating with a coordinated-color-temperature. The LED light source can be multiple LED light sources of different color temperature.
