Abstract

A light source device, including a first light source, providing a first light beam in a first time period of a first period; and a second light source, providing a second light beam in a second time period of the first period, is provided. The first light beam and the second light beam have the same color temperature. The first light beam and the second light beam are emitted alternately in the first period, and a color rendering index of mixed light of the first light beam and the second light beam is greater than or equal to 85.
