Abstract:
A power-supply circuit may include a current generator configured to generate a regulated current. The current generator may include a switching stage, a current sensor, and a regulation circuit configured for driving the switching stage as a function of a feedback signal supplied by the current sensor. The power-supply circuit may further include an electronic switch configured to shortcircuit selectively the output of the current generator as a function of a drive signal, and a control circuit configured to generate the drive signal for opening or closing selectively the electronic switch. In particular, the current generator is configured to activate or de-activate generation of the regulated current as a function of an enable signal, and the control circuit is configured to generate the enable signal and the drive signal in such a way as to synchronize the ripple in the regulated current with the further drive signal.

Claim (Index 8):
A lighting system comprising a power supply circuit according to  claim 1  and further comprising at least one lighting source connected to the output of said current generator, wherein:\n a) when said electronic switch is opened, said regulated current flows though said at least one light source, and \n b) when said electronic switch is closed, said regulated current flows through said electronic switch.
