Abstract
An LED lighting system has an LED circuit that includes a first LED having an anode and a cathode, and a second LED having an anode and a cathode. The anode of the second LED is electrically coupled to the cathode of the first LED, and the cathode of the second LED is electrically coupled to the anode of the first LED. The first and second LEDs are in an inverse-parallel arrangement, the first LED acting as a reverse-voltage clamp for the second LED and the second LED acting as a reverse-voltage clamp for the first LED.
