Vehicle lamp
DRIVE
January 15, 2014
A vehicle lamp includes a light source (2), a solenoid-type actuator (6), and a lamp control device (LC). The light source (2) lights up when a current flows therethrough. The actuator (6) controls a light distribution of light that is illuminated from the light source (2). The lamp control device (LC) controls lighting-up of the light source (2) and driving of the actuator (6). The lamp control device (LC) includes a current control device (10) and an actuator control device (20). The current control device (10) outputs a constant current. The actuator control device (20) connects the actuator (6) to the light source (2) in series based on a predetermined signal (DIM) so that the constant current, which is output from the current control device (10), flows through the light source (2) and the actuator (6).
