Abstract

A method may include, based on a plurality of duty cycles each associated with a respective one of a plurality of LEDs, determining a first set of drive schemes such that each drive scheme is associated with a respective one of the plurality of LEDs and is dependent on the duty cycle associated with the respective one of the plurality of LEDs. The method further includes driving each of the plurality of LEDs in accordance with the associated drive scheme of the first set in at least one drive cycle. Each of the plurality of drive schemes includes one or more on-times each having a phase and a duration. The method may include driving each of the plurality of LEDs in an on-state or an off-state dependent on the respective drive scheme and determining the drive scheme dependent on the drive scheme of another one of the plurality of LEDs.
