Problems solved by technology

However, the disadvantage of the serial driving method is that after one of the LEDs is damaged, the entire signal light will no longer emit light.
Each LED is independently configured with a constant current Buck driver. The disadvantages are that there are many components, high cost, and occupying too much PCB area.
