Claim 10:
11. A light driver comprising:
a converter configured to generate an output voltage based on a rectified input signal for driving a light source; and
a processor configured to regulate the output voltage of the converter via a reference voltage, the processor being further configured to perform:
measuring a current output signal of the light driver;
calculating a percent change in output signal based on the current output signal and a previous output signal;
determining whether the percent change in output signal is greater than or equal to a first threshold; and
in response to determining that the percent change in the output signal is greater than or equal to the first threshold,
calculating a percent change in the reference voltage based on a current reference voltage and a previous reference voltage;
determining whether the percent change in the reference voltage is less than a second threshold; and
in response to determining that the percent change in the reference voltage is less than the second threshold,
deactivating filtering and averaging of a dimmer signal received from a dimmer for a period of time; and
reactivating the filtering and the averaging of the dimmer signal.
