Patent ID: 7821212

Claim:
An LED strip lighting system comprising: an LED controller comprising a) a housing member; b) a circuit board positioned on, in line with or in the housing member, said circuit board having an integrated circuit that is adapted to drive red, green, blue LEDs, said integrated circuit including first, second and third non-phase-locked, analog oscillators; c) a first connector at a first location; and d) a second connector at a second location; at least a first LED light strip having red, green, blue LEDs connected to the first connector; and a power source connected to the second connector; wherein the speed of each oscillator independently causing the oscillators to emit three continuous, out-of-phase, linear ramps which modulate the color and brightness of light emitted by each LED over a continuous, variable range between full on and full off, and wherein the slowest of the three oscillators controls the red LEDs, thereby producing a smooth analog color wash of randomly varying colors formed by the varying combinations of red, green, and blue light emitted from the LEDs, without digital to analog conversion and post integration.
