Abstract

A multi-function lighting device includes a controller, a first switch, a second switch, a third switch, a fourth switch and a light source group including a first light source and a second light source. The three ends of the first switch are connected to the controller, a driving power source and a first node respectively. The three ends of the second switch are connected to the controller, the first node and a grounding point respectively. The three ends of the third switch are connected to the controller, the driving power source and a second node respectively. The three ends of the fourth switch are connected to the controller, the second node and the grounding point respectively. The light source group is connected to the first node and the second node.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A multi-function lighting device, comprising:
a controller; a first switch, wherein a first end, a second end and a third end thereof are connected to the controller, a driving power source and a first node respectively; a second switch, wherein a first end, a second end and a third end thereof are connected to the controller, the first node and a grounding point respectively; a third switch, wherein a first end, a second end and a third end thereof are connected to the controller, the driving power source and a second node respectively; a fourth switch, wherein a first end, a second end and a third end thereof are connected to the controller, the second node and the grounding point respectively; and a light source group, comprising a first light source and a second light source, wherein a positive electrode of the first light source and a negative electrode of the second light source are connected to the first node, and a negative electrode of the first light source and a positive electrode of the second light source are connected to the second node.

2 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first switch, the second switch, the third switch and the fourth switch are bipolar junction transistors.

3 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the controller is a microcontroller unit, a central-processing unit, an application specific integrated circuit or a field programmable gate array.

4 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the controller is a microcontroller unit, a central-processing unit, an application specific integrated circuit or a field programmable gate array.

5 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein when a second control signal, generated by the controller, inputted into the second switch and the third switch is high-level, the second switch and the third switch are turned on so as to turn on the second light source, wherein when the second control signal is low-level, the second switch and the third switch are turned off so as to turn off the second light source.

6 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein a waveform of the first control signal is complementary to a waveform of the second control signal.

7 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the first control signal and the second control signal are pulse-width modulation signals.

8 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the controller adjusts the first control signal and the second control signal to change an off time of the light source group in order to adjust a brightness of the light source group.

9 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the controller adjusts a duty cycle of the first control signal and/or a duty cycle of the second control signal in order to change a color temperature of a light emitted by the light source group.

10 . The multi-function lighting device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first light source and the second light source are light-emitting diodes or light-emitting diode arrays.
