Abstract

A system is created for an efficient dimming LED lighting system, and comprising a voltage source, an electronic switch controlled by a pulse width modulation, PWM, driving signal and an LED lighting module connected in series. The LED comprises an LED group and a constant current drive circuit to drive a constant current through the LED group. The voltage source and a bypass branch, which is connected in parallel with the electronic switch, is adapted such that when the electronic switch is open, a power delivered to the constant current drive circuit is sufficient to maintain operation of the constant current drive circuit, ensuring capability for a deep dimming.
