Abstract
The present disclosure discloses a device and a method for driving an LED. The device includes: a rectifier circuit for receiving an AC voltage and convert the AC voltage into a first DC voltage; a capacitance-adjusting circuit including a first capacitor, a second capacitor and a switch; and a DC-DC converter for converting the first DC voltage into a second DC voltage, wherein a range of a voltage value of the AC voltage comprises a first AC voltage range and a second AC voltage range, and when the voltage value of the AC voltage is in the first AC voltage range, the capacitance-adjusting circuit has a first capacitance value; and when the voltage value of the AC voltage is in the second AC voltage range, the capacitance-adjusting circuit has a second capacitance value, and the first capacitance value is greater than the second capacitance value.
