| Title: |
Dimming Control Circuit For Light-Emitting Diodes |
| Abstract: |
A dimming control circuit generates a dimming control signal for
determining brightness of at least one light-emitting diode. The dimming
control signal has a plurality of bright-dark cycles, each of which
consists of a bright phase and a dark phase. The bright phase starts with
an adaptive rising portion. The adaptive rising portion restricts the
brightness of the at least one light-emitting diode to increase gradually
from zero.
