A circuit arrangement for operating an LED arrangement, wherein a controller transmits a current intensity value for a respective LED to a driver and the latter feeds the LED with current in a time sequence containing a check pulse, and wherein a measuring device is configured to measure the light emitted by the light-emitting diode on account of the check pulse, wherein the controller is configured to use only measurement values which represent the light of check pulses for the stipulation of current intensity values, and wherein the driver defines a main factor, which is dependent on at least one of the temperature of the LED and on the voltage dropped across said LED, wherein the driver is configured to multiply the current intensity value by the main factor and this product defines the current intensities of all the current pulses in the time sequence apart from the check pulse.
A method for operating a light-emitting diode arrangement comprising at least one light-emitting diode, wherein a controller is configured to transmit a current intensity value for a respective light-emitting diode to a driver and the latter is configured to feed the light-emitting diode with current in a time sequence of current pulses in a manner dependent on the current intensity value sent, wherein the time sequence of current pulses contains a check pulse, and wherein the light that is emitted by the light-emitting diode on account of the check pulse is measured by a measuring device with at least one photosensitive element, wherein the measuring device feeds measurement values to the controller, which stipulates the current intensity value in a manner dependent on at least one measurement value,
A circuit arrangement for operating a light-emitting diode arrangement comprising at least one light-emitting diode, wherein a controller is configured to transmit a current intensity value for a respective light-emitting diode to a driver and the latter feeds the light-emitting diode with current in a time sequence of current pulses in a manner dependent on the current intensity value sent, wherein the time sequence of current pulses contains a check pulse, and wherein a measuring device with at least one photosensitive element is configured to measure the light that is emitted by the light-emitting diode on account of the check pulse, wherein the measuring device is configured to feed measurement values to the controller, which stipulates the current intensity value in a manner dependent on at least one measurement value,
