Claim Text:
1. An electronic driver comprising: a power converter comprising an output terminal and configured to generate a converter output power based on a first switching frequency of the power converter; a first controller operatively coupled to the power converter and configured to control the first switching frequency of the power converter; and a visible light communication adapter operatively coupled to the output terminal of the power converter and configured to alter the converter output power to perform visible light communication; wherein the power converter comprises: a first string comprising a plurality of switches operatively coupled to each other in a series configuration; a second string comprising a plurality of diodes operatively coupled to each other in a series configuration; a transformer comprising a primary winding and a secondary winding, wherein the primary winding comprises a first end operatively coupled to the first string at a first node; a rectifier comprising a first leg operatively coupled to a first end of the secondary winding and a second leg operatively coupled to a second end of the secondary winding; a first capacitive element operatively coupled to the second string in a parallel configuration; and a second capacitive element operatively coupled to a second end of the primary winding.
