Patent attributes
Various embodiments include apparatuses and methods enabling a dim-to-warm circuit operation of an LED multi-colored array. In one example, an apparatus includes a hybrid driving-circuit coupled to the LED array and to a single control-device to receive an indication of a luminous flux desired from the LED array. A color temperature for the LED array is determined based on the desired luminous flux of the LED array. In various embodiments, the hybrid driving-circuit includes an analog current-division circuit to produce current for at least two LED current-driving sources and a multiplexer array coupled between the analog current-division circuit and the LED to provide periodically, for a predetermined amount of time, current from at least one of the at least two LED current-driving sources to at least two colors of the LED array. Other apparatuses and methods are described.
