APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR A LIGHT-EMITTING DIODE LAMP THAT SIMULATES A FILAMENT LAMP

摘要

Disclosed herein is a circuit assembly comprising a light-emitting diode (LED) load in combination with a filament bulb simulation circuit, the filament bulb simulation circuit being configured to simulate a load that would be presented to a monitoring system by a filament bulb. In this manner, a filament bulb can be effectively replaced with one or more LEDs and thereby achieve power consumption savings. Also disclosed is a method for monitoring an LED circuit assembly with a monitoring system to determine whether the LED circuit assembly is deemed operational.
