    Abstract: A substrate for an LED emitter includes a body with a recess region formed therein. Bonding pads are disposed within the recess region, including LED bonding pads for LEDs and supporting chip bonding pads for one or more semiconductor chips that provide supporting circuitry (e.g., driver and/or controller circuitry) to support operation of the LEDs. External electrical contacts can be disposed outside the recess region. Electrical paths, disposed at least partially within the body of the substrate, connect the external electrical contacts to a first subset of the supporting chip bonding pads and connect a second subset of the supporting chip bonding pads to the plurality of LED bonding pads such that one or more supporting chips connected to the controller pads can be operated to deliver different operating currents to different ones of the LEDs.

    Abstract: A first sequence of pulses having a high frequency can be modulated using a second sequence of pulses having a lower frequency. The pulse width of the second sequence of pulses can be perturbed from a nominal pulse width on a per-pulse basis, within a perturbation range corresponding to the pulse period of the first sequence of pulses. In one application, the resulting output can be used to drive LEDs. In some instances, two or more channels of LEDs of different colors can be supported, with the pulse width of the first pulse sequence being selected per-channel based on a desired light color and the nominal pulse width of the second pulse sequence being selected for all channels based on a desired brightness.

    Abstract: An emitter for an LED-based lighting device has multiple groups of LEDs that are independently addressable, allowing the emitter to be tuned to a desired color bin (e.g., a specific white color) by adjusting the relative current supplied to different groups. The LED dies for the groups and a phosphor chip for each LED die are individually selected such that each LED-die/phosphor-chip combination produces light in a desired source region associated with the group to which the LED belongs. Robotic pick-and-place systems can be used to automate assembly of the emitters by selecting LED dies from a bin based on based on spectral characteristics and phosphor chips from a number of distinct phosphor chip types.

    Abstract: LED-based light source modules can incorporate color tunability and brightness control, allowing a user to select a desired color temperature and/or brightness and to change either or both dynamically. An emitter can include multiple independently addressable groups of LEDs, each emitting light of a different color. By controlling the relative operating current provided to each group, a desired color temperature can be achieved, and by controlling the absolute operating currents, the brightness of the output light can be controlled. Pulse width modulation (PWM) can be used to control the relative and absolute operating currents. Smooth, gradual transitions between brightness and/or color temperature settings in response to changes can be provided.

    Abstract: The color of an LED-based lamp can be tuned to a desired color or color temperature. The lamp can include two or more independently addressable groups of LEDs associated with different colors or color temperatures and a total-internal-reflection (TIR) color-mixing lens to produce light of a uniform color by mixing the light from the different groups of LEDs. The color of the output light is tuned by controllably dividing an input current among the groups of LEDs. Tuning can be performed once, e.g., during manufacture, and the lamp does not require active feedback components for maintaining color temperature.
