Abstract
An LED lighting device includes a luminescent circuit, a detecting circuit, an adjustable current source and a dimming control circuit. The luminescent circuit is driven by a rectified AC voltage for providing light. The detecting circuit is configured to detect a rising edge or a falling edge of the LED current associated with a frequency of the rectified AC voltage. The dimming current regulator is configured to vary a duty cycle of the LED current according to a PWM signal. The dimming control circuit is configured to generate the PWM signal and synchronize a frequency of the PWM signal with the frequency of the rectified AC voltage at the detected rising edge or the falling edge of the rectified AC voltage.
