Abstract
An offline LED lighting circuit comprises a controller and a dimming circuit. The controller generates a switching signal to switch a transformer for generating an output voltage and an output current at an output terminal of the offline LED lighting circuit to drive LEDs. The dimming circuit is coupled to the controller to modulate the switching signal in response to a dimming signal. A first reference voltage and a second reference voltage of the controller are generated in response to the dimming signal. The switching signal is modulated by the first reference voltage and the second reference voltage. The controller regulates the output voltage at a first output level and a second output level in response to both the first reference voltage and the second reference voltage. The second output level is lower than the first output level.
