Referring to Fig. 2, is the circuit diagram of the LED driving circuit of one second preferred embodiment according to the present invention.Relatively the present embodiment and the embodiment shown in the first figure, its Main Differences is that error amplifying circuit 102, compensating circuit 104 in feedback control circuit 100 and a feedback control switch 106 produce circuit replacement with feedback signal, is described as follows.
Feedback control circuit 100 comprises control circuit of duty ratio 110, feedback control unit 112, feedback control switch 106 and a feedback signal produces circuit, and wherein feedback signal generation circuit comprises a charhing unit, a discharge cell and an electric capacity 116.Charhing unit has one first current source I1 and charge switch 114, a first current source I1 by charge switch 114 coupling capacitance 116 to provide a charging current to charge to electric capacity 116.Discharge cell has one second current source I2 coupling capacitance 116, provides a discharging current to discharge to electric capacity 116.In the present embodiment, feedback control unit 112 is a comparator, and its non-oppisite phase end receives a reference voltage signal Vr, and end of oppisite phase receiving feedback signals FB is to control conducting and the closedown of charge switch 114 accordingly.Feedback control switch 106 coupling capacitance 116 to the first current source I1 and the second current source I2, and switch between a conducting state and a closed condition according to a dim signal DIM.When dim signal DIM represents " ON ", feedback control switch 106 is in conducting state makes the first current source I1 and the second current source I2 discharge to electric capacity 116 and to charge, and makes the current potential of electric capacity 116 according to feedback signal FB adjustment to produce a feedback processing signal Ser.When dim signal DIM represents " OFF ", feedback control switch 106 is in closed condition to stop the first current source I1 and the second current source I2 to electric capacity 116, makes electric capacity 116 maintain the current potential of now feedback processing signal Ser.
Therefore, the drive circuit of the present embodiment can maintain the level of feedback processing signal Ser as drive circuit as shown in Figure 1 when dim signal DIM represents " OFF ", and when dim signal DIM transfers representative " ON " to, make driver element 130 can provide the control signal Sc of duty ratio when having stable immediately.Therefore the drive circuit of the present embodiment also has the accurate advantage of light modulation.
Drive circuit of the present invention is except the DC-DC voltage up converting circuit in above-described embodiment, and other have the power supply circuit of direct voltage output function, such as: inverse-excitation type change-over circuit, forward formula change-over circuit etc.Following elder generation is with the explanation of forward formula change-over circuit.
Referring to Fig. 3, is the circuit diagram of the drive circuit according to of the present invention 1 the 3rd preferred embodiment.LED driving circuit comprises a feedback control circuit 200, transistor unit 270 and a power supply circuit 260, in order to drive a light-emitting diode (LED) module 250.Light-emitting diode (LED) module 250 has several light-emitting diode string and these light-emitting diode strings are connected in parallel to each other.Power supply circuit 260 couples an alternating current input power supplying VAC by a bridge rectifier BD, to be changed by the electric power of alternating current input power supplying VAC according to a control signal Sc, to drive light-emitting diode (LED) module 250 luminous.In this enforcement, power supply circuit 260 is a forward formula change-over circuit, comprises a transformer T, a transistor SW, rectifier diode D1, D2 and an output capacitance C.One end of the primary side of transformer T couples stream input power VAC, one end of other end coupling transistors SW, and the other end of transistor SW is by a current sense grounding through resistance.One end of output capacitance C couples the primary side of transformer T and other end ground connection by rectifier diode D1, D2.
Predetermined electric current is all flow through in order to ensure the arbitrary light-emitting diode in light-emitting diode (LED) module 250, several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN of transistor unit 270, couple the several light-emitting diode strings in light-emitting diode (LED) module 250 one to one, make the electric current of several light-emitting diode string all be stable at predetermined current value.In the present embodiment, each in several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN all couples a current control circuit, and current control circuit comprises a transistor and a current control circuit as previous embodiment.During actual enforcement, transistor unit 270 can use current mirror or other are using transistor as the current source controlled, and is not limited to the circuit that the present embodiment is carried.Owing to often going here and there, light-emitting diode crossfire is not identical through the driving voltage needed for predetermined current value, causes the voltage levels of several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN different.For the load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN making transistor unit 270 all can normal running, namely the electric current of controllable flow warp is predetermined current value, and the level of load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN must maintain one first predetermined potential value.For this reason, the present invention can increase by one first extreme voltage circuit for detecting 240, couples several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN, and produces one first feedback signal FB1 according to potential minimum between load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN.First extreme voltage circuit for detecting 240 can comprise several diode, and its negative terminal respectively correspondence is coupled to several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN, and its anode is connected to each other and be coupled to a driving power VCC by a resistance.So, except the diode corresponding to the load coupled end with potential minimum can except forward conduction, the cross-pressure on all the other diodes is not enough and cannot conducting, makes the current potential of the first feedback signal FB1 be the forward bias that the potential minimum of load coupled end adds diode.In addition, the reference voltage Vi1-ViN that current control circuit in transistor unit 270 receives can not be identical, with the light-emitting diode of the different current drive requirements of correspondence, certain reference voltage Vi1-ViN also can be identical, makes the arbitrary light-emitting diode in light-emitting diode (LED) module 250 all flow through identical electric current.
Feedback control circuit 200 comprises a control circuit of duty ratio 210 and a feedback signal produces circuit.Feedback signal produces circuit and comprises a feedback control unit 212, and feedback control unit 212 can be a comparator, its non-oppisite phase end receives one first reference voltage signal Vr1, end of oppisite phase receives the signal be made up of the first feedback signal FB1 and the 3rd reference voltage signal Vr3, namely the level of the 3rd reference voltage signal Vr3 deducts the level of the first feedback signal FB1, and wherein the level of the 3rd reference voltage signal Vr3 is higher than the level of the first reference voltage signal Vr1.As level arbitrary lower than the first predetermined potential value of load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN, feedback control unit 212 is made to produce a feedback processing signal Ser lower than the level of the first reference voltage signal Vr1 the level of the signal that the end of oppisite phase of feedback control unit 212 is received.Control circuit of duty ratio 210 comprises set-reset flip-floop 224 and a driver element 230.The end R that resets of set-reset flip-floop 224 receives a periodic pulse signal, and setting end S receives feedback processing signal Ser.Therefore, when feedback control unit 212 produces feedback processing signal Ser, set-reset flip-floop 224 will be triggered and produce pulse-width modulation signal S2 to driver element 230 by an output Q.Driver element 230 receives a dim signal DIM and pulse-width modulation signal S2, and transistor unit 270 also receives dim signal DIM simultaneously.When dim signal DIM represents " ON ", driver element 230 produces according to pulse-width modulation signal S2 conducting and the closedown that control signal Sc controls the transistor SW in power supply circuit 260, provide electrical power to adjust alternating current input power supplying VAC the size that power supply circuit 260 provides electric power, and transistor unit 270 also makes power supply circuit 260 supply electric power to light-emitting diode (LED) module 250 to drive it luminous.When dim signal DIM represents " OFF ", the transistor SW that driver element 230 controls in power supply circuit 260 provides electrical power to power supply circuit 260 to stop alternating current input power supplying VAC, and transistor unit 270 also stops power supply circuit 260 to supply electric power to light-emitting diode (LED) module 250.And be avoid feedback control circuit 200 now to occur any possible erroneous judgement because receiving the first feedback signal FB1, feedback signal produces circuit also can comprise a feedback control switch 205, be coupled to the first extreme voltage circuit for detecting 240 and feedback control unit 212, close when dim signal DIM represents " OFF ".Therefore the level that the level of the 3rd reference voltage signal Vr3 deducts the first feedback signal FB1 is not less than the level of the first reference voltage signal Vr1, and now feedback control unit 212 can not output feedack processing signals Ser.
Because the transistor in transistor unit 270 has withstand voltage restriction, the current potential arbitrary as load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN is damaged higher than causing transistor unit 270 during withstand voltage.Such as: when light-emitting diode string open circuit arbitrary in light-emitting diode (LED) module 250, cause feedback control circuit 200 constantly to promote the output voltage of power supply circuit 260 to attempt the load coupled terminal potential of correspondence to be promoted to scheduled voltage, the load coupled terminal potential that other light-emitting diode strings now can be caused corresponding is too high; Or, when part light-emitting diode short circuit in a certain light-emitting diode string, make that the cross-pressure on the light-emitting diode string of short circuit reduces and the load coupled terminal potential that causes this light-emitting diode string corresponding is too high.For avoiding the problems referred to above, can increase by one second extreme voltage circuit for detecting 245, coupling several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN, and produce one second feedback signal FB2 according to maximum potential between load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN.Second extreme voltage circuit for detecting 245 can comprise several diode, and its anode respectively correspondence is coupled to several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN, and its negative terminal is connected to each other and by a grounding through resistance.Feedback control circuit 200 also comprises an overvoltage comparator 208, and non-oppisite phase end receives the second feedback signal FB2, and end of oppisite phase receives one second reference voltage signal Vr2.When the current potential of the second feedback signal FB2 is higher than the second reference voltage signal Vr2, represent one of them level of load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN higher than one second predetermined potential value, now overvoltage comparator 208 is by output one overvoltage protection signal OVP.
In addition, when circuit normal operation, the current potential of several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN all can maintain scheduled voltage or on.When the current potential of arbitrary load coupled end cannot go up to scheduled voltage lower than scheduled voltage, then represent circuit abnormality.But, when circuit is in the first or dimming process started, also will temporarily make the current potential of several load coupled end DS1 ~ DSN lower than scheduled voltage.For avoiding erroneous judgement and get rid of foregoing circuit extremely simultaneously; can increase by a timing circuit 203 in feedback control circuit 200 and couple feedback control unit 212; when the first feedback signal FB1 continues to reach a predetermined period of time lower than the first reference voltage signal Vr1; namely, when the lasting output high levle of feedback control unit 212 reaches predetermined period of time, timing circuit 203 exports a too low guard signal S1.Certainly, timing circuit 203 also can receive an enabling signal or a dim signal, and to decide the time point that timing starts according to enabling signal or dim signal, wherein enabling signal is represent the signal that drive circuit starts startup.And due to the electric power supply capacity of power supply circuit different along with the design of different circuit, the length of required predetermined period of time can be caused different.In order to can various circuit design be coordinated, if during feedback control circuit 200 single integrated circuit of the present invention, additionally can increase by a setting pin position, set above-mentioned predetermined period of time by outer meeting resistance or electric capacity (not shown).
