Summary: | The invention relates to a LED light source comprising input terminals for connection to a mains voltage supply source, a rectifier coupled to the input terminals for rectifying the mains supply voltage supplied by the mains supply voltage source and comprising rectifier output terminals, a DC-DC converter for generating a DC current out of the rectified mains supply voltage, comprising converter input terminals connected to the rectifier output terminals and comprising a first converter output terminal and a second converter output terminal, a further terminal arranged to receive a control signal to change operation of the DC-DC converter from a normal operation mode to a standby mode and a LED load with an anode coupled to the first converter output terminal via a current control element for blocking a current flowing from the anode of the LED load to the first converter output terminal, and with a cathode coupled to the second converter output terminal via a first controllable switch having a control electrode coupled to first control circuitry for rendering the controllable switch non-conductive in case the LED light source is in standby mode. |
