Abstract
In one embodiment, the present invention includes an electronic circuit for providing a power current to an LED lamp. The electronic circuit comprises a logic drive circuit, a VCO, a power switch, and a first current sensor. The VCO is coupled to provide a first logic control signal to the logic drive circuit. The power switch has a first terminal and second terminal coupled to deliver the power current to the LED lamp and a control terminal coupled to receive a power control signal from the logic drive circuit. The first current sensor is coupled to sense a peak current passing through the power switch and coupled to provide a second logic control signal to the logic drive circuit.
