Embodiment Construction

[0032] The examples described below are preferred embodiments of the present invention. In this example, the described components of this embodiment are individual features of the invention to be considered independently of each other, which also respectively improve the invention independently of each other, and which in turn can also be used individually or in the same manner as shown Different combinations are considered as part of the invention. Furthermore, the described embodiments can also be supplemented by other features of the invention that have already been described.

[0033] figure 1 Shown is a lighting device 1 which can be designed, for example, as a motor vehicle headlight. An LED lighting device 2 and an LED controller 3 are shown. The LED lighting device 2 is electrically connected to the LED controller 3 through two power supply connectors 4 . In the LED luminous means 2 , a light-emitting diode row 5 consisting of light-emitting diodes 6 is inserted be...

Abstract

The invention relates to a diagnostic device (8) for detecting defects in at least one light-emitting diode of a plurality of light-emitting diodes (6), which are connected to form a light-emitting diode column (5), which comprises the first A power supply joint (4) is connected with the second power supply joint (4). This defect should be detected with low wiring overhead. The invention stipulates that a resistance element (10) is connected in parallel to each light-emitting diode (6), and the measuring mechanism (11) is designed to be used in two power supply connections ( 4) A diagnostic current is generated between (I D ), through which the diagnostic current produces a greater forward bias (U F ) small voltage from which the corresponding light-emitting diodes (6) connected in parallel emit light, and the measuring mechanism is designed to provide the voltage value (19 ).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a diagnostic device and a method for detecting defects in at least one of a plurality of light-emitting diodes which are connected to form a light-emitting diode row, via which two power supply connections are connected to one another. The row of light-emitting diodes can be provided in particular in a motor vehicle headlight. However, the light-emitting diode row can also be part of a domestic lighting system or part of another lighting device. Background technique [0002] It is common in an LED light emitting device (LED-Light Emitting Diode, light emitting diode) that each light emitting diode is connected in series to form an LED string or a column of light emitting diodes, and is powered from a current source. A single light-emitting diode row can hereby be formed from more than 10 individual light-emitting diodes connected in series. An LED column usually has only two power supply connections to allow the current from ...
