Abstract
A dimming control circuit generates a dimming control signal for determining brightness of at least one light-emitting diode. The dimming control signal has a plurality of bright-dark cycles, each of which consists of a bright phase and a dark phase. The bright phase starts with an adaptive rising portion. The adaptive rising portion restricts the brightness of the at least one light-emitting diode to increase gradually from zero.
