Abstract
System controller and method for a lighting system. The system controller includes a first controller terminal configured to receive a first signal, and a second controller terminal configured to output a second signal to a diver component. The driver component is configured to receive a first current and provide one or more drive currents to one or more light emitting diodes in response to the second signal. Additionally, the system controller is configured to process information associated with the first signal, determine a first time period for the first signal to increase from a first threshold to a second threshold, and determine a second time period for the first signal to decrease from the second threshold to the first threshold.
