Abstract

The printed circuit board includes metallic zones including: a first, second and third positive terminal, a first and second negative terminal, wherein the second negative terminal is connected to the first negative terminal, and electric contacts for the mounting of one or more LEDs and electric traces such that the LEDs are connected in series forming a LED string. The printed circuit board comprises selection means implemented with electric traces and metallic contacts adapted to be short-circuited via links in order to permit all of the following connections: a connection of the LED string between the first and third positive terminal, a connection of the LED string between the first positive terminal and the first negative terminal, a connection of the LED string between the second and third positive terminal, and a connection of the LED string between the second positive terminal and the first negative terminal.
