Patent attributes
A light-emitting diode (LED) tube lamp adapted to install on a lamp socket and configured to emit light when receiving an external driving signal without the external driving signal passing through or being output from a ballast includes a lamp tube, two end caps, each having at least one external connection terminal, a rectifying circuit, for rectifying the external driving signal to produce a rectified signal; a filtering circuit, for filtering the rectified signal to produce a filtered signal; an LED module, disposed on a power loop of the LED tube lamp, coupled to the filtering circuit, and configured for emitting light; a driving circuit coupled between the rectifying circuit and the LED module, and configured to drive the LED module; a mode determination circuit coupled to the rectifying circuit and the driving circuit and configured to detect the voltage level of the rectified signal; a switch circuit; and an installation detection circuit coupled to the mode determination circuit, the switch circuit, and the rectifying circuit; and configured to detect an installation state between the LED tube lamp and a lamp socket based on the voltage level of the rectified signal detected by the mode determination circuit.
