[0071] In practical applications, an optical coupler (OC), also known as an opto-isolator or simply optocoupler, is a device that uses light as a medium to transmit electrical signals. Typically, the input terminal (infrared light-emitting diode, LED) and the output terminal (photosensitive semiconductor tube) are packaged in the same housing. When an electrical signal is applied to the emitting unit of the optocoupler, the LED emits light, and the output terminal receives the light and generates a photocurrent, which flows out from the output terminal, thus realizing an "electrical-optical-electrical" conversion. In this embodiment, the pc1 pin of chip U10 is electrically connected to CON1 to receive the voltage input from the 0-10V dimmer. Based on the voltage received at the pc1 pin, chip U10 adjusts the output voltage at the pc2 pin, controlling the input terminal U12B of the first optocoupler to generate an optical signal, and sends the optical signal to the output terminal U12A of the first optocoupler, thereby controlling the conduction state of the output terminal U12A of the first optocoupler.

After voltage division, the voltage of resistor R29 is compared with the reference voltage of comparator U9. If it is greater than the reference voltage, comparator U9 conducts to form a circuit, and the input terminal U7B of the optocoupler generates a feedback signal.
