Abstract:
An apparatus can include: a bleeder circuit coupled to a DC bus of an LED driver having a silicon-controlled dimmer; the bleeder circuit being configured to control a voltage of the DC bus to vary in a predetermined manner by drawing a bleed current through a bleed path when in a first mode, and to cut off the bleed path when in a second mode; and a controller configured to control the bleeder circuit to be in the first mode before the silicon-controlled dimmer is turned on.

Claim (Index 6):
The apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein said controller is configured to control said controllable switch to be turned on when said DC bus voltage is increased to said second threshold, and to be turned off when said DC bus voltage is decreased to said first threshold.
