ABSTRACT:
A light emitting diode drives a semiconductor circuit in order to drive a light emitting diode that emits light by applying the output voltage of the rectifier circuit. The light emitting diode includes a switching element connected between the light emitting diode and the ground potential. An input voltage detection circuit detects the output voltage of the rectifier circuit to output a light emitting signal or a extinction signal. A current detection circuit detects the current flowing into the switching element. A control circuit intermittently controls on/off of the switching element at a predetermined oscillating frequency based on the output signal of the current detection circuit while the input voltage detection circuit is outputting the light emitting signal.
