Claim Text:
1. A device including a driver, the driver comprising a converter for converting an input signal from a dimmer into an output signal destined for a light emitting diode circuit, and a controller for detecting a dimming level of the input signal and for, in response to a detection result defining the dimming level being equal to or smaller than a threshold level, bringing the driver from a first dimming mode into a second dimming mode, the converter being configured to, in the first dimming mode, convert first input signals into first output signals according to a first curve (I), and to, in the second dimming mode, convert the first input signals into second output signals according to a second curve (II), the first and second curves (I, II) each defining a light output per dimming level, and the second curve (II) defining a higher light output than the first curve (I) for most of the dimming levels.
