Abstract
A method of initiating power-on of a light driver for driving a light source, the method including retrieving a stored load voltage of the light driver from a memory, determining a turn-on delay based on the stored load voltage, stalling power-on of the light driver for a period of time equal to the turn-on delay, initiating startup of the light driver based on the stored load voltage, determining whether current is flowing to the light source, in response to determining that current is flowing to the light source, measuring a load voltage of the light driver, and storing the load voltage in the memory.
