Light-emitting systems

摘要

A light-emitting system includes a first and second power input terminals; for receiving an AC power input to the light-emitting system; a first, second, third, and fourth light-emitting-diode groups each having at least one light-emitting diode; a first circuit path having at least one light-emitting diode from each of the first and second light-emitting-diode groups, with the light-emitting diodes coupled serially and emitting light during a positive power cycle; and a second circuit path having at least one light-emitting diode from each of the third and fourth light-emitting-diode groups, with the light-emitting diodes coupled serially and emitting light during a negative power cycle. The second light-emitting-diode group and the third light-emitting-diode group share at least one common light-emitting diode, The first and second power input terminals, the first, second, third, and fourth light-emitting-diode groups, and the first and second circuit paths may belong to a single chip light-emitting system.
