Abstract

A dimmable light emitting diode (LED) device with low ripple current includes a LED module, a phase dimmer, a voltage converting module, a driving module and a feedback module. The flyback converter of the voltage converting module adds a secondary forward winding connecting to a phase cut-off detector to provide a detecting voltage in proportion to current level of the output current across the LED module.
