Abstract:
Herein described is a circuit apparatus with LED diodes comprising a plurality (2) of circuit branches in which each circuit branch (10, 20; 101-104) comprises at least one LED diode (D1, D20, D21, D10). The apparatus comprises a device (1) for the feeding of said plurality (2) of circuit branches and each circuit branch (10, 20;101-104) is connected singularly to the feeding device (1). The feeding device (1) comprises control means (3) suitable for commanding the feeding of each circuit branch (10, 20;101-104) of the plurality (2) of circuit branches independently from the other circuit branches of the plurality.
Abstract:
A DC-DC voltage down-converter ( 140 ) for an electronic device ( 105 ) supplied by a battery ( 125 ) and having a bus interface ( 110 ) for the interconnection with another electronic device ( 120 ) capable of supplying electric power is provided. The DC-DC voltage down-converter includes a terminal coupled to a voltage supply line ( VS ) of the bus interface and operable to receive a input current ( Iusb ) from said another electronic device. The DC-DC voltage down-converter further includes an electric energy storage element ( L ) coupled between the battery and said terminal, the electric energy storage element being operable to store/release electric energy and a drive circuit ( 225 ) arranged to control the storage/release of the electric energy storage element, so as to cause an electric power generated by said input current supplied by said another electronic device trough the voltage supply line to re-charge the battery. The DC-DC voltage down-converter still further includes a input current feedback control circuit ( 240, 250 ) coupled to said terminal and arranged to monitor a value of said input current and generate a corresponding input current indication ( UCPWM ); said drive circuit is configured to control the store/release of the electric energy storage element according to said input current indication.
Abstract:
Herein described is a supply device of at least two circuit branches (10, 20), each of said at least two circuit branches (10, 20) comprising at least one LED diode (30). The device comprises means (1) suitable for imposing the electric supply (Vout) of said at least two circuit branches (10, 20) and said means comprise at least one variable resistance (R2). The device comprises control means (3) coupled to said at least two circuit branches (10, 20) and suitable for varying said resistance (R2) in reply to a variation of the current (110, 120) that flows in one of said at least two circuit branches (10, 20) to vary the electric supply of said at least two circuit branches.
