Abstract:
A light source includes a first light emitting unit, which performs light emission of a first function, and a second light emitting unit, which performs light emission of a second function and has the maximum lighting voltage lower than the forward voltage of the first light emitting unit, the first light emitting unit and the second light emitting unit being connected in parallel to each other. A lighting circuit includes a current supply unit, which supplies driving current to the light source, a controller, which performs stabilization control of the driving current from the current supply unit, a switch element, which is provided to disconnect a current path portion, which is the current path of the second light emitting unit and is parallel to the current path of the first light emitting unit, and a selector, which connects the current path of the second light emitting unit by the switch element when light emission of the second function is performed.

Claim (Index 1):
A lighting circuit comprising:\n a current supply unit configured to supply driving current to a light source in which a first light emitting unit configured to perform light emission of a first function and a second light emitting unit configured to perform light emission of a second function and having a maximum lighting voltage lower than a forward voltage of the first light emitting unit are connected in parallel to each other; a switch element provided to connect and disconnect a portion of a current path of the second light emitting unit, which is parallel to a current path of the first light emitting unit; and a selector configured to connect the current path of the second light emitting unit by the switch element when the light emission of the second function is performed.
