A Light Emitting Diode (LED) driving circuit includes a reference-voltage terminal, an input terminal to receive a pulse-width modulated (PWM) power signal, and a PWM output terminal. An LED is coupled across the PWM output terminal and the reference-voltage terminal. A measurement capacitor circuit and a voltage-divider network are coupled in parallel with the LED. During an interruption of the PWM power signal, a sense node of the voltage-divider provides a voltage indicative of a temperature of the LED prior to the interruption. The voltage indicative of the temperature is used to control driving of the LED.
