Abstract
A method and system for a passive headset with dynamically controlled LEDs, where the method comprises, in a passive headset comprising speakers, light emitting diodes (LEDs), and LED driver circuitry: receiving an electrical signal that includes an audio signal and an LED control signal, filtering out the LED control signal from the received electrical signal and communicating a resulting output audio signal to the speakers, filtering out the audio signal from the received electrical signal and communicating a resulting output LED control signal to the LED driver circuitry, generating a bias voltage for each of the one or more LEDs utilizing the LED driver circuitry and the output LED control signal, and configuring a light output of the LED utilizing the generated bias voltage. The amplifier may include a mixer that sums an audio signal with a control signal.
