A light emitting diode controller comprising: a current sensor coupled to a dimmer, the current sensor configured to detect a dimmer current; a current controller coupled to an output of the current sensor, current controller configured to: (a) determine a dimmer operating mode by comparing the detected dimmer current to a threshold dimmer current value, wherein the LED controller is configured to operate in a first dimmer operating mode in a period following a triggering of the dimmer until the LED controller transitions to a second dimmer operating mode during which the detected dimmer current is to be maintained at a level that meets or exceeds the threshold current value within a predetermined range of the threshold current value, wherein the LED controller is configured to transition to the second dimmer operating mode when the LED controller determines that the detected dimmer current is equal to the threshold current value, within a specified tolerance range, and (b) during the determined dimmer operating mode, incrementally adjust a duty cycle of a control signal output by the current controller to correspond to an incremental level of adjustment to an additional current supplied to the dimmer through an additional current path between the dimmer and a power converter, the incremental adjustment based on a difference between the threshold current value and the detected dimmer current; and a switch coupled to the current controller, the switch configured to receive the control signal to incrementally adjust an amount of additional dimmer current to be supplied to the dimmer through the additional current path based on the control signal. a current sensor coupled to a dimmer, the current sensor configured to detect a dimmer current; a current controller coupled to an output of the current sensor, current controller configured to: (a) determine a dimmer operating mode by comparing the detected dimmer current to a threshold dimmer current value, wherein the LED controller is configured to operate in a first dimmer operating mode in a period following a triggering of the dimmer until the LED controller transitions to a second dimmer operating mode during which the detected dimmer current is to be maintained at a level that meets or exceeds the threshold current value within a predetermined range of the threshold current value, wherein the LED controller is configured to transition to the second dimmer operating mode when the LED controller determines that the detected dimmer current is equal to the threshold current value, within a specified tolerance range, and (b) during the determined dimmer operating mode, incrementally adjust a duty cycle of a control signal output by the current controller to correspond to an incremental level of adjustment to an additional current supplied to the dimmer through an additional current path between the dimmer and a power converter, the incremental adjustment based on a difference between the threshold current value and the detected dimmer current; and (a) determine a dimmer operating mode by comparing the detected dimmer current to a threshold dimmer current value, wherein the LED controller is configured to operate in a first dimmer operating mode in a period following a triggering of the dimmer until the LED controller transitions to a second dimmer operating mode during which the detected dimmer current is to be maintained at a level that meets or exceeds the threshold current value within a predetermined range of the threshold current value, wherein the LED controller is configured to transition to the second dimmer operating mode when the LED controller determines that the detected dimmer current is equal to the threshold current value, within a specified tolerance range, and (b) during the determined dimmer operating mode, incrementally adjust a duty cycle of a control signal output by the current controller to correspond to an incremental level of adjustment to an additional current supplied to the dimmer through an additional current path between the dimmer and a power converter, the incremental adjustment based on a difference between the threshold current value and the detected dimmer current; and a switch coupled to the current controller, the switch configured to receive the control signal to incrementally adjust an amount of additional dimmer current to be supplied to the dimmer through the additional current path based on the control signal.
