A two-terminal current controller having a current limiting unit and an adjusting unit regulates a first current flowing through a load according to a load voltage. When the load voltage does not exceed a first voltage, the two-terminal current controller operates in a first mode for conducting a second current associated a rectified AC voltage, thereby limiting the first current to zero and adjusting the second current accordingly. When the load voltage is between the first voltage and a second voltage, the two-terminal current controller operates in a second mode for conducting the second current, thereby limiting the first current to zero and limiting the second current to a constant value larger than zero. When the load voltage exceeds the second voltage, the two-terminal current controller operates in a third mode for turning off the current limiting unit. The adjusting unit can adjust the predetermined value and the second voltage. |
