US 2015/0316243 A1 · Driver Circuit Integrated LED Module

Abstract

A driver circuit integrated light emitting diode (LED) module is a device that is designed for installation into a conventional lighting fixture and as a replacement for a conventional lighting device such as an incandescent lightbulb. The device features a printed circuit board (PCB) onto which a plurality of LEDs is mounted for illumination. Incoming alternating current (AC) power is converted to usable direct current (DC) power by a rectifier prior to entering the PCB. A control module is used to regulate the current through the plurality of LEDs, allowing the device to be utilized in conjunction with a dimmer switch or similar device. The device is connected to mains electricity and/or to an external electronic device via an at least one electrical connector cable. Flickering is prevented by a uniform power regulating capacitor. The device is installed into an existing lighting fixture via an at least one mounting magnet.
