| Title: |
Address-Free Driving Device and Lighting Fixture System |
| Abstract: |
An address-free driving device and lighting fixture system are disclosed.
The device is applied in controlling a lighting device, and includes a
serial interface, a signal converter, a signal processor and a lighting
driving unit. The signal converter converts an inputted signal from the
serial interface into a digital signal. The signal processor then
extracts a controlling data corresponding to the address-free driving
device from the digital signal, and determines whether or not the
inputted signal from the serial interface can be outputted to another
address-free driving device. The lighting driving unit drives the
lighting device to illuminate light based on the controlling data.
Accordingly, when the lighting devices are electrically and serially
connected, the address-free driving device then controls the lighting
devices based on the order of series connection.
