Abstract
A control circuit for controlling light emitting diodes comprises a switch for turning on or off a string of light emitting diodes. A combiner generates a control signal from a data signal and a noise signal. A sigma delta modulator receives the control signal and a clock signal with a clock period and generates a switching signal for controlling the switch.
