Problems solved by technology

In this PWM signal, although the current amplitude is constant, but the density is varied, so that the light intensity of the LED varies
However, this involves the lamp driver being switched on and off many times per second, and this is detrimental to the lamp driver itself and to the rest of the circuit, as electromagnetic radiation is emitted each time the lamp driver is activated
Also, PWM signals require additional systems to generate them

Abstract

The invention provides an automotive lighting device (10) for an automotive vehicle (100), the electronic device (10) comprising light sources (1), a current sink device (4) and a light driver (3). The current sink device (4) is in connection with one of the light sources (1), so that each light source with one current sink device forms a light group. The light driver (3) is configured to be electrically fed by the power source (2), the light driver (3) comprising terminals (32) and being configured to selectively activate or deactivate current flow in each terminal (32), in such a way that each light group is connected to one of the terminals. The light driver (3) is located in series with the light groups with respect to the power source (2), either between the power source (2) and the light groups or between the light groups and the ground connection. The current sink device (4) comprises an input (41) configured to receive an activation signal, in such a way that the current sink device (4) is configured to be selectively activated to consume power.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of motor vehicle lighting devices which are controlled to provide complex lighting functions. Background technique [0002] Motor vehicle lighting devices are designed to perform different functions. For this purpose, the lighting device comprises different lighting modules, each of which is responsible for one of the lighting functions. [0003] However, in some cases the device must be simplified or made smaller. As a result, it is sometimes desirable to combine different functions in a single lighting module. These functions are usually grouped by color: since the tracking function and the braking function have the same color, the same lighting module is designed to perform both functions. [0004] In some cases, as shown in the examples above, different functions are defined by different luminous intensities. This problem can sometimes be solved by providing two separate modules: the "brake" function will acti...
