Abstract

A light source of LED includes at least one first LED and at least one second LED. The first LED has a first optical illuminant characteristic varying with a variable operation voltage from a first level to a second level, wherein the first level is larger than the second level. The second LED has a second optical illuminant characteristic varying with the variable operation voltage from a third level to a fourth level, wherein the third level is smaller than the fourth level. The first LED and the second LED are simultaneously controlled by the same variable operation voltage to produce a light.
