Abstract
A control circuit for driving different color temperatures LED lights with AC input voltage comprises a LED light set A with one color temperature; and a LED light set B with another color temperature; two AC input voltages L1 and L2; wherein the LED light sets A and B are arranged in parallel. Two different color temperatures LED light sets are used to generate three different color temperatures LED lights sources, which meets the requirement for using different LED color temperature light sources in different scenarios to reduce the inventory of different LED lights.
