Abstract
A LED lighting system, such as a dimmable LED lamp, that may simulate the performance of an incandescent bulb. LED strings of different colors may be connected to the output of a single LED driver that regulates an overall intensity of light produced by the LED lighting system. The color of the LED lighting system may be controlled by circuitry, such as one or more switches, that allocates current between the LED strings to change the color temperature of light emitted by the LED lighting system as the light intensity changes.
