Abstract

To test a first LED, a second LED, and a third LED in a light-emitting unit, a method is disclosed herein comprising the following steps: setting the first and second LEDs in respective driven states to generate associated light; providing the third LED to receive the light associated with the first and second LEDs, thereby generating a first photocurrent and a second photocurrent; providing the first LED to receive the light associated with the second LED, thereby generating a third photocurrent; and calculating a decay factor of each of the LEDs based on the first, second, and third photocurrents.
