Description

直接式发光二极体驱动装置Direct LED Driver

技术领域technical field

本发明系关于一种驱动LED驱动器的装置,特别系关于一种直接式LED驱动装置。The invention relates to a device for driving an LED driver, in particular to a direct type LED driver.

背景技术Background technique

一般常见的发光二极体(light emitting diode,LED)驱动电路有两种,一种是切换式驱动电路(switch drive),另一种则是直接式驱动电路(direct driver)。切换式驱动电路会使用一磁性元件(例如:诱发器)来储存来自一电源供应器的电能,并且直接将此电能直接传送给一LEC灯串。切换式区动电路的缺点是需要另外安装一电磁滤波器(EMI Filter)、需要安装较多的元件,以及会有明显的输出电流涟漪(Output Current Ripple),但是并没有较大的电容。Generally, there are two types of common light emitting diode (LED) drive circuits, one is a switch drive circuit (switch drive), and the other is a direct drive circuit (direct driver). Switching driving circuits use a magnetic element (eg, an inducer) to store power from a power supply and directly deliver the power to an LEC string. The disadvantages of the switchable drive circuit are that an additional electromagnetic filter (EMI Filter) needs to be installed, more components need to be installed, and there will be obvious output current ripple (Output Current Ripple), but there is no large capacitance.

直接式驱动电路则可发挥高达99%的作用效率,仅需较少的元件,并且成本较为低廉。但是直接式驱动电路的输出电流涟漪则与功率因素有明显的关联性。简单来说,若是有效的校正功率因素,便可以设计出几乎不产生输出电流涟漪的直接式驱动电路。The direct drive circuit can achieve an efficiency as high as 99%, requires fewer components, and is relatively low in cost. However, the output current ripple of the direct drive circuit is obviously related to the power factor. To put it simply, if the power factor is corrected effectively, a direct drive circuit with almost no output current ripple can be designed.

因此,开发出一种可以在各种不同输入电压下仍可以高度有效的驱动灯具、具有低谐波失真(harmonic distortion,HD)特性、又具有高功滤因素及低量输出电流涟漪的LED驱动装置是十分重要的事。Therefore, it is necessary to develop an LED driver that can drive lamps with high efficiency under various input voltages, has low harmonic distortion (harmonic distortion, HD) characteristics, high power filter factor and low output current ripple. Devices are very important.

请参见图1所示,图1系说明本发明一实施例的一直接式LED驱动装置结构示意图。在本实施例中直接式LED驱动装置系包括有一主要LED灯串10、一次要LED灯串组20、一预调元件30和一直接式驱动器40。其中,主要LED灯串10包括有复数相互串联的LED单元,并具有一第一端和一第二端。次要LED灯串组20具有一第一端和一第二端,并包括有复数相互串联的次要LED灯串200组成,次要LED灯串组20的第一端系连接于主要LED灯串10的第二端,每一次要LED灯串200皆包括有至少一LED单元。Please refer to FIG. 1 . FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating the structure of a direct LED driving device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the direct LED driving device includes a main LED lamp string 10 , a secondary LED lamp string group 20 , a preset device 30 and a direct driver 40 . Wherein, the main LED light string 10 includes a plurality of LED units connected in series, and has a first end and a second end. The secondary LED light string group 20 has a first end and a second end, and includes a plurality of secondary LED light strings 200 connected in series. The first end of the secondary LED light string group 20 is connected to the main LED light At the second end of the string 10, each secondary LED light string 200 includes at least one LED unit.

预调元件30包括有一二极体整流器301和一功率因素校正模组302。其中,二极体整流器301系连接于一电源,并且会将来自电源的交流输入电压转换成一脉冲直流电压。功率因素校正模组302系设置于二极体整流器301和主要LED灯串10的第一端间,并且将脉冲直流电压调整为一稳定的调控输出电压(regulated output voltage)。且预调元件30可供应多种范围,且具有高功率因素和低低谐波失真特性的输入电压。需要注意的是,预调元件301并不需要提供调控过的输入电流,只要提供一稳定且经调控的输出电压,此输出电压会存在有少量但合理的电流涟漪。The preset device 30 includes a diode rectifier 301 and a power factor correction module 302 . Wherein, the diode rectifier 301 is connected to a power source, and converts the AC input voltage from the power source into a pulsed DC voltage. The power factor correction module 302 is disposed between the diode rectifier 301 and the first end of the main LED light string 10, and adjusts the pulsed DC voltage to a stable regulated output voltage. Moreover, the preset element 30 can supply various ranges of input voltages with high power factor and low harmonic distortion characteristics. It should be noted that the pre-regulator 301 does not need to provide a regulated input current, as long as it provides a stable and regulated output voltage with a small but reasonable current ripple.

在本发明的一实施例中,预调元件30可以具有一升压式准谐振(boost-mode quasi-resonant)架构。此具有升压式准谐振架构的预调元件301可应用于一边界模式(boundary mode)的情的境下,也是一种最简单的应用方式。经过预调元件30调控过的输出电压波锋应落于电源的交流输入电压的最大波锋位置。所属技术领域熟悉所述项技艺人士皆可轻易知晓的是,具有升压模式的组件只能提供与交流输入电压相同或更高的输出电压。In an embodiment of the present invention, the preset device 30 may have a boost-mode quasi-resonant structure. The pre-regulator 301 with boost quasi-resonant structure can be applied in a boundary mode situation, and it is also the simplest application method. The wave front of the output voltage regulated by the pre-adjustment element 30 should fall at the maximum wave front position of the AC input voltage of the power supply. Those skilled in the art can easily know that the components with boost mode can only provide an output voltage equal to or higher than the AC input voltage.

请参考图2所示,图2系说明图1中直接式LED驱动装置的电路架构。预调元件30中的二极体整流器301系由四个二极体而形成。功率因素校正模组302包括有一第一电容器3021、一电感器3022、一控制器3023、一切换式电晶体(transistor)3024、一二极体3025、和一第二电容器3026。其中,第一电容器3021系并联连接于二极体整流器301,并且具有一第一端和一第二端。电感器3022具有一第一端和一第二端。切换式电晶体3024的第一端系连接于电感器的第二端,而切换式电晶体3024的第二端则连接于控制器3023。第二电容器3026具有一第一端和一第二端。二极体3025系设置于切换式电晶体3024的第一端和第二电容器3026的第一端间。第一电容器3021和第二电容器3026的第二端,以及切换式电晶体3024的第三端则连接至一接地(common ground)。Please refer to FIG. 2 , which illustrates the circuit structure of the direct LED driving device in FIG. 1 . The diode rectifier 301 in the preset element 30 is formed by four diodes. The power factor correction module 302 includes a first capacitor 3021 , an inductor 3022 , a controller 3023 , a switching transistor 3024 , a diode 3025 , and a second capacitor 3026 . Wherein, the first capacitor 3021 is connected in parallel to the diode rectifier 301 and has a first terminal and a second terminal. The inductor 3022 has a first terminal and a second terminal. The first terminal of the switching transistor 3024 is connected to the second terminal of the inductor, and the second terminal of the switching transistor 3024 is connected to the controller 3023 . The second capacitor 3026 has a first terminal and a second terminal. The diode 3025 is disposed between the first terminal of the switching transistor 3024 and the first terminal of the second capacitor 3026 . The second terminals of the first capacitor 3021 and the second capacitor 3026, and the third terminal of the switching transistor 3024 are connected to a common ground.

直接式驱动器40包括有一电流源401,并连接至每一次要LED灯串200。直接式驱动器40会选择性的关闭选定的次要LED灯串200,以确保最大的LED驱动效率。电流源401系设置于次要LED灯串组20的第二端和预调元件30的功率因素校正模组302间。直接式驱动器40(和所伴随的主要LED灯串10及次要LED灯串组20)具有一预设的操作电压范围,此预设范围涵盖了预调元件30的预期最大输出电压和预期最小输出电压,也应所述涵盖预调元件30调控的输出电压范围,以及因为温度、二极体寿命和操作变数引发的LED电压变化。The direct driver 40 includes a current source 401 connected to each secondary LED light string 200 . The direct driver 40 selectively turns off selected secondary LED light strings 200 to ensure maximum LED driving efficiency. The current source 401 is disposed between the second end of the secondary LED lamp string group 20 and the power factor correction module 302 of the preset device 30 . The direct driver 40 (and the accompanying primary LED light string 10 and secondary LED light string groups 20) have a preset operating voltage range that covers both the expected maximum output voltage and the expected minimum output voltage of the preset element 30. The output voltage should also cover the output voltage range regulated by the pre-regulator 30, as well as the LED voltage variation due to temperature, diode lifetime and operating variables.

直接式驱动器40会监测横跨整主要LED灯串10和次要LED灯串组20的电压,并据以调整电流,使得主要LED灯串10和次要LED灯串组20的整体输出电力维持为一常数。The direct driver 40 monitors the voltage across the entire main LED light string 10 and the secondary LED light string group 20 and adjusts the current accordingly so that the overall output power of the main LED light string 10 and the secondary LED light string group 20 maintains is a constant.

如同图2所示,本发明的直接式LED驱动装置更包括有一连通路径(communicating path)50,系设置于预调元件30和直接式驱动器40间。当直接式驱动器40的有效动力范围增加时,便可以减少次要LED灯串200的数量。举例来说,当温度上升使得流向主要LED灯串10的电压变得十分微小时,便可以将次要LED灯串组20串联连接于主要LED灯串10。如果次要LED灯串组20缺少足够的次要LED灯串200来因应抵销流向LED的电压时,那么流经直接式驱动器40的电流源401的电压变会增加,使得整体供电效率降低。因此,一旦预调元件30中的控制器3023可以透过连通路径50来感测流经主要LED灯串10和次要LED灯串组20的电压时,预调元件30便可以减少输出的调控电压,并使得直接式驱动器40可以发挥最大的工作效益。此外,为了要透过连通路径50感测流经主要LED灯串10和次要LED灯串组20的电压,并调控主要LED灯串10和次要LED灯串组20的整体亮度,预调元件30会控制直接式驱动器40的电流源401维持稳定的光输出。As shown in FIG. 2 , the direct LED driving device of the present invention further includes a communicating path 50 disposed between the presetting element 30 and the direct driver 40 . When the effective power range of the direct driver 40 is increased, the number of secondary LED light strings 200 can be reduced. For example, when the temperature rises and the voltage flowing to the main LED light string 10 becomes very small, the secondary LED light string group 20 can be connected in series with the main LED light string 10 . If the secondary LED light string group 20 lacks enough secondary LED light strings 200 to counteract the voltage flowing to the LEDs, the voltage flowing through the current source 401 of the direct driver 40 will increase, and the overall power supply efficiency will decrease. Therefore, once the controller 3023 in the pre-regulator 30 can sense the voltage flowing through the main LED light string 10 and the secondary LED light string group 20 through the communication path 50, the pre-regulator 30 can reduce the regulation of the output. Voltage, and make the direct driver 40 can exert the greatest working efficiency. In addition, in order to sense the voltage flowing through the main LED light string 10 and the secondary LED light string group 20 through the communication path 50, and adjust the overall brightness of the main LED light string 10 and the secondary LED light string group 20, the preset The element 30 controls the current source 401 of the direct driver 40 to maintain a stable light output.

反之,假设主要LED灯串10和次要LED灯串组20的温度降低时,供给主要LED灯串10和次要LED灯串组20的电压变需要比一般时更多。直接式驱动器40可以自主要LED灯串10逐步移除供给次要LED灯串组20的电压,至所有的次要LED灯串组20都被关闭为止。直接式驱动器40会使预调元件30减少调控电压的输出,并使装置可以维持最佳的运作效率。Conversely, assuming that the temperature of the main LED light string 10 and the secondary LED light string group 20 decreases, the voltage supplied to the main LED light string 10 and the secondary LED light string group 20 becomes more required than usual. The direct driver 40 can gradually remove the voltage supplied to the secondary LED light string groups 20 from the primary LED light string 10 until all the secondary LED light string groups 20 are turned off. The direct driver 40 will reduce the output of the regulation voltage of the pre-regulator 30 so that the device can maintain the best operating efficiency.

预调元件30和直接式驱动器40间可以数位化、类比电压或电流的形式进行联系。为了避免当次要LED灯串200的数量已经接近临界值时(也就是说,已达预调元件30的最大预期电压或最小预期电压),会就两个数值不停的往返"交谈",因此有必要在预调元件30其控制器3023的一控制方法中加入一磁滞(hysteresis)。The communication between the presetting element 30 and the direct driver 40 can be in the form of digital, analog voltage or current. In order to avoid “talking” back and forth between two values when the number of secondary LED light strings 200 is close to a critical value (that is, the maximum expected voltage or the minimum expected voltage of the preset element 30 has been reached), Therefore, it is necessary to add a hysteresis in a control method of the controller 3023 of the presetting element 30 .

因为预调元件30的动作只有一单一步骤,所以整体工作效率可以超过97%。如果连接预调元件30的直接式驱动器40可以达到98%以上,则根据本发明所揭露的预调元件30和直接式驱动器40组合,其有效供电效率可以达到95%(97%×98%),这样的供电效率极佳,且对于那些降低10%效率便会造成许多电量浪费或是产生热散失的高供电系统(high power system)来说,显得十分重要。Because the action of the presetting element 30 has only one single step, the overall working efficiency can exceed 97%. If the direct driver 40 connected to the pre-adjustment element 30 can reach more than 98%, then according to the combination of the pre-adjustment element 30 and the direct driver 40 disclosed in the present invention, its effective power supply efficiency can reach 95% (97%×98%) , such power supply efficiency is excellent, and it is very important for those high power systems (high power systems) where a 10% reduction in efficiency will cause a lot of power waste or heat loss.

请参考图3所示,图3系本发明另一实施例的架构图?因为高供电系统的效率降低会产生电量浪费或是产生热散失的问题,所以更凸显本发明所揭示的驱动装置的优势。在本实施例中,一个单一预调元件30系与复数个直接式驱动器40相连接,由于直接式驱动器40的费用相对来说十分便宜,因此并不会过度增加装置成本。当供电增加时,可能会有必要增加预调元件30的体积,然而即使供电量变为原来的两倍,预调元件30的体积和费用也不会高于原先的两倍,所以,产生输出电压的成本仍然可以维持在低价的状态。Please refer to FIG. 3, which is a structural diagram of another embodiment of the present invention? The advantages of the driving device disclosed in the present invention are more prominent because the efficiency reduction of the high power supply system will cause power waste or heat loss. In this embodiment, a single presetting element 30 is connected to a plurality of direct drivers 40 , and since the cost of the direct drivers 40 is relatively cheap, the cost of the device will not be excessively increased. When the power supply is increased, it may be necessary to increase the size of the preset element 30, but even if the power supply is doubled, the volume and cost of the preset element 30 will not be higher than twice the original, so the output voltage The cost can still be maintained at a low price.

请参考图4所示,图4系说明本发明又一实施例的架构图。本实施例与图3的不同在于,本实施例的预调元件30其控制器3023并未使用磁滞控制方法。在本实施例中,LED直接式驱动装置更包括有一电流回馈模组60和一连接于预调元件30其控制器3023内的一内部比较器30231的电流回馈路径63。内部比较器30231具有一内部参考电压(Vrc)。电流回馈模组60系用于调整控制器3023改变其所调控的输出电压(Vout),并包括有一积分电路(integrator)61和一电流通道(current passenger)62。电流回馈路径63包括有一第一电阻R1、一第二电阻R2、以及一第三电阻R3。积分电路61系连接次要LED灯串组20和电流源401间。电流通道62系连接于积分电路61和第三电阻R3间,并依据一间接二极体D所产生的一控制电压(Vadj)数值来选择性增加或减少电流供给。而第一电阻R1和第二电阻R2系相互串联连接后,再并联连接于第二电容器3026。第三电阻R3的第一端系连皆于第一电阻R1和第二电阻R2的一接点(junction)。在这样的连接方式下,可将一额外电流透过第三电阻R3注入第一电阻R1和第二电阻R2间的接点,而调控后的输出电压(Vout)和控制电压(Vadj)间的关系可以以下方程式表示:Please refer to FIG. 4 , which is a structural diagram illustrating another embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and FIG. 3 is that the controller 3023 of the pre-adjustment element 30 of this embodiment does not use a hysteresis control method. In this embodiment, the LED direct driving device further includes a current feedback module 60 and a current feedback path 63 connected to an internal comparator 30231 in the controller 3023 of the preset device 30 . The internal comparator 30231 has an internal reference voltage (Vrc). The current feedback module 60 is used to adjust the output voltage (Vout) regulated by the controller 3023 and includes an integrator 61 and a current passenger 62 . The current feedback path 63 includes a first resistor R1, a second resistor R2, and a third resistor R3. The integrating circuit 61 is connected between the secondary LED light string group 20 and the current source 401 . The current channel 62 is connected between the integration circuit 61 and the third resistor R3, and selectively increases or decreases the current supply according to a value of a control voltage (Vadj) generated by an indirect diode D. The first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 are connected in series with each other, and then connected in parallel to the second capacitor 3026 . The first end of the third resistor R3 is connected to a junction of the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2. In such a connection mode, an additional current can be injected into the junction between the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 through the third resistor R3, and the relationship between the regulated output voltage (Vout) and the control voltage (Vadj) It can be expressed by the following equation:

Vout=[(Vrc×R2×R3/R1)+(R3×Vrc)+(R2×Vrc)-(R2×Vadj)]/R3。Vout=[(Vrc×R2×R3/R1)+(R3×Vrc)+(R2×Vrc)−(R2×Vadj)]/R3.

在图4所揭示的实施例中,积分电路61系嵌设于于一运算放大器(Operational Amplifier,op-Amp)中,并具有一比较电压(Vr)。电流通道62则为一单向的反向器(inverter),因为电流通道62仅容许将电流导入第三电阻R3以调控输出电压(Vout)降低,且考量到R1/R2的关系,经调控的输出电压不能高于其内部电压值。In the embodiment disclosed in FIG. 4 , the integration circuit 61 is embedded in an operational amplifier (Operational Amplifier, op-Amp) and has a comparison voltage (Vr). The current channel 62 is a unidirectional inverter (inverter), because the current channel 62 only allows the current to be introduced into the third resistor R3 to regulate the reduction of the output voltage (Vout), and considering the relationship between R1/R2, the regulated The output voltage cannot be higher than its internal voltage value.

在进行操作的过程中,如果通过电流源401的平均电压值低于参考电压(Vr),便调整提升积分电路61的输出,而调整降低具有单向反向器结构的电流通道62的输出,且电流通道62会被锁住而无法运作。一旦通过电流源401的平均电压值增加并高于参考电压(Vr)时,便开始减少电流通道62的输出。当电源流401的电压低于一中间电阻值时,电流通道62会开始供应电流使得预调元件30的调控输出电压(Vout)降低,中间电阻值定义为第一电阻R1和第二电阻R2间的电阻值,并受到控制器3023中内部比较器30231的参考电压(Vrc)所影响。在许多商用的控制器中,控制器3023中内部比较器30231的参考电压(Vrc)的内部参数大概为2.5伏特。During the operation, if the average voltage value passing through the current source 401 is lower than the reference voltage (Vr), the output of the integration circuit 61 is adjusted to increase, and the output of the current channel 62 with a unidirectional inverter structure is adjusted to decrease, And the current channel 62 will be locked and unable to operate. Once the average voltage across the current source 401 increases and is higher than the reference voltage (Vr), the output of the current channel 62 starts to decrease. When the voltage of the power supply flow 401 is lower than an intermediate resistance value, the current channel 62 will start to supply current so that the regulated output voltage (Vout) of the preset device 30 is reduced. The intermediate resistance value is defined as the distance between the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 The resistor value is affected by the reference voltage (Vrc) of the internal comparator 30231 in the controller 3023. In many commercially available controllers, the internal parameter of the reference voltage (Vrc) of the internal comparator 30231 in the controller 3023 is approximately 2.5 volts.

请参考图5所示,图5系说明本发明再一实施例的架构图。本实施例中,积分电路61系嵌设于一跨导(transconductance)结构中,亦即由一驱动一比较器的转移电导所组成,而电流通道62则具有缓冲的功能。本实施例和图4的实施例相同处在于,电流通道62不管是反向器的结构或是缓冲结构,都只能依据R1/R2的比值来供给电流,以使得输出电压由最大值逐渐降低。Please refer to FIG. 5 , which is a structural diagram illustrating another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the integration circuit 61 is embedded in a transconductance structure, that is, composed of a transfer conductance driving a comparator, and the current channel 62 has a buffer function. This embodiment is the same as the embodiment of FIG. 4 in that the current channel 62 can only supply current according to the ratio of R1/R2, regardless of whether it is an inverter structure or a buffer structure, so that the output voltage gradually decreases from the maximum value. .

通常在一般的操作中,LED单元会升温且流经LED单元的电压会减少,并导致通过电流源的电压增加,而造成供电效率的下降以及灯管产生废热的增加,因此,透过本发明图4或图5实施例中电流回馈模组60可以感测通过电流源401的电压增加状况,来响应降低输出电压(Vout)。如同调控输出电压,通过电流源401的电压也会减少,以达到增加供电效率以及减少废热产生的效果。Usually, in general operation, the LED unit will heat up and the voltage flowing through the LED unit will decrease, which will lead to an increase in the voltage passing through the current source, resulting in a decrease in power supply efficiency and an increase in waste heat generated by the lamp tube. Therefore, through the present invention The current feedback module 60 in the embodiment of FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 can sense the voltage increase of the current source 401 and respond to decrease the output voltage (Vout). Like adjusting the output voltage, the voltage passing through the current source 401 will also decrease, so as to achieve the effect of increasing power supply efficiency and reducing waste heat generation.

图4或图5实施例展现了本发明的卓越功效,特别是对于一应用类比调光的灯管来说更为明显。在进行类比调光的过程中,当调光到最亮的时候,通过LED的电流会降低到相对很小的数值,因此流经LED灯串中每一个LED单元的电压会比通过LED电流满载时还要更低的多,所以,可以在进行类比调光时可以产生较高的操作效率。The embodiment shown in FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 demonstrates the excellent efficacy of the present invention, especially for a lamp using analog dimming. In the process of analog dimming, when the dimming is the brightest, the current through the LED will be reduced to a relatively small value, so the voltage flowing through each LED unit in the LED light string will be higher than the current through the LED full load. The time is much lower, so it can produce higher operating efficiency when performing analog dimming.

在另一个类似的状态中,如果将一过热保护机制应用于一LED模组以便在一过热状态下减少流经LED的电流,而经预调元件30调控的输出电压也会随着流经LED的电压下降而减少。如此便可以确保(LED?)装置可以不用在过热操作的期间对抗操作电压的上升。In another similar state, if an overheating protection mechanism is applied to an LED module so as to reduce the current flowing through the LED in an overheating state, the output voltage regulated by the preset element 30 will also flow through the LED The voltage drops and decreases. This ensures that the (LED?) device does not have to contend with a rise in operating voltage during overheating operation.

此外,当利用单一预调元件30来驱动复数相互为并联排列的直接式LED驱动装置时,则需要将图4或图5进行一些修饰。因为在这样的情形下,所需的控制电压(Vadj)应所述是保持在最低的电压状态下,而非前段所述的最高电压状态下。In addition, when a single preset element 30 is used to drive a plurality of direct LED driving devices arranged in parallel with each other, it is necessary to make some modifications to FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 . Because in such a situation, the required control voltage (Vadj) should be kept at the lowest voltage state, not the highest voltage state mentioned in the preceding paragraph.

为了要解决这个问题,并且在安全性的考量下维持一绝对最大输出电压,请参见图6所示,图6系说明将本发明利用单一预调元件驱动复数相互为并联排列的直接式LED驱动装置的实施方式。每一个直接式LED驱动装置(图中未示)系连接于一电流回馈模组70,此电流回馈模组70十分类似图4或图5所描述的电流回馈模组60。每一电流回馈模组70包括有一积分电路71和一与积分电路71串联连接的电流通道72,图6和图4或图5的差异在于,电流通道72中间接二极体D的方向是相反的,在这样的状态下,电流通道72中反向的间接二极体D只能将电流导出。亦即,图4或图5中电流通道62是用来增加电流,本实施例的电流通道72是用来减少电流。In order to solve this problem and maintain an absolute maximum output voltage under safety considerations, please refer to Figure 6. Figure 6 is a description of the direct LED driver that uses a single pre-adjustment element to drive multiple parallel arrangements of the present invention. Embodiment of the device. Each direct LED driving device (not shown in the figure) is connected to a current feedback module 70 , and the current feedback module 70 is very similar to the current feedback module 60 described in FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 . Each current feedback module 70 includes an integrating circuit 71 and a current channel 72 connected in series with the integrating circuit 71. The difference between FIG. 6 and FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 is that the direction of the indirect diode D in the current channel 72 is opposite. Yes, in such a state, the reverse indirect diode D in the current channel 72 can only lead out the current. That is, the current channel 62 in FIG. 4 or FIG. 5 is used to increase the current, and the current channel 72 in this embodiment is used to decrease the current.

当所有的电流通道72都相互连接在一起时,电流通道72中的最低输出电压即被决定为一控制电压(Vadj)。因为电流通道72的输出电压为最小,当电流流回预调元件30时,会使得预调元件30调控的输出电压足以供给主要LED灯串10和次要LED灯串组20足够的电压来维持所需的电流。When all the current channels 72 are connected together, the lowest output voltage of the current channels 72 is determined as a control voltage (Vadj). Because the output voltage of the current channel 72 is the minimum, when the current flows back to the preset element 30, the output voltage regulated by the preset element 30 is sufficient to supply the main LED light string 10 and the secondary LED light string group 20 with sufficient voltage to maintain required current.

在本实施例中,电流回馈路径73(没有先行词)更包括有一保护二极体(securing diode)D1。保护二极体D1系设置于第三电阻R3和电流通道72间,并且具有一阳极和一阴极。保护二极体D1的阳极系与第三电阻R3相连,阴极则与电流通道72相连。保护二极体D1仅容于电流由第一电阻R1和第二电阻R2的接点向预调元件30移动,以确保经调控的输出电压不会超过R1/R2的比值。In this embodiment, the current feedback path 73 (without antecedent) further includes a securing diode D1. The protection diode D1 is disposed between the third resistor R3 and the current channel 72 and has an anode and a cathode. The anode of the protection diode D1 is connected to the third resistor R3 , and the cathode is connected to the current channel 72 . The protection diode D1 is only capable of allowing the current to move from the junction of the first resistor R1 and the second resistor R2 to the preset element 30, so as to ensure that the regulated output voltage will not exceed the ratio of R1/R2.

请参考图7,图7系说明直接式LED驱动电路的一实施方式。如同许多自适应直接式LED驱动装置(adaptive LED direct driver)一样,本实施例需要修饰LED电流以提供稳定适当的输出电压,以增加或移除附加于主要LED灯串10的次要LED灯串20数量。Please refer to FIG. 7 . FIG. 7 illustrates an embodiment of a direct LED driving circuit. Like many adaptive LED direct drivers, this embodiment needs to modify the LED current to provide a stable and appropriate output voltage to add or remove secondary LED light strings attached to the main LED light string 10. 20 quantity.

在这个实施例中,直接式LED驱动装置包括有一电流感应电阻80、一第一电晶体81、一内部电流源82、一导流二极体(exceeding diode)83、一错误放大器84、一MONS电晶体85、一偏移电阻86以及一REST电阻87。In this embodiment, the direct LED driver includes a current sensing resistor 80, a first transistor 81, an internal current source 82, an exceeding diode 83, an error amplifier 84, a MONS Transistor 85 , an offset resistor 86 and a REST resistor 87 .

其中,电流感应电阻80系连接主要LED灯串10的第一端和预调元件30。第一电晶体81具有三端,其中第一端连接于电流感应电阻80,而第二端连接于次要LED灯串组20的第二端。电流感应电阻80和第一电晶体81的连接可以感测流经主要LED灯串10以及附加次要LED灯串200的完整电压(流经电流感应电阻80的电流有一部分转化为供应主要LED灯串10以及附加次要LED灯串200的电压)。内部电流源82则是连接于第一电晶体的第三端,且电流源82的电流值被预设为与达到最小输出电压时(也就是说,直接式LED驱动装置的最小预测电压),电流感应电阻80所感测到的电流值相同。Wherein, the current sensing resistor 80 is connected to the first end of the main LED light string 10 and the preset element 30 . The first transistor 81 has three terminals, wherein the first terminal is connected to the current sensing resistor 80 , and the second terminal is connected to the second terminal of the secondary LED light string group 20 . The connection of the current sense resistor 80 and the first transistor 81 can sense the complete voltage flowing through the main LED light string 10 and the additional secondary LED light string 200 (a part of the current flowing through the current sense resistor 80 is converted to supply the main LED light string string 10 and an additional secondary LED string 200). The internal current source 82 is connected to the third end of the first transistor, and the current value of the current source 82 is preset to reach the minimum output voltage (that is, the minimum predicted voltage of the direct LED driving device), The current values sensed by the current sensing resistors 80 are the same.

导流二极体83具有一阳极和一阴极,其中阳极系连接于第一电晶体81的第三端。错误放大器84具有一正向输入端、一负向输入端和一输出端,其中错误放大器84的正向输入端系连接于一参考电压源(reference volatgesource,Vrs),错误放大器84的负向输入端系连接于导流二极体83的阴极。MONS电晶体85具有三端,其中第一端系连接于次要LED灯串组20的第二端,第二端系连接于错误放大器84的输出端,第三端则连接于REST电阻87。偏移电阻86系连接于错误放大器84的负向输入端和REST电阻87间。错误放大器84和MONS电晶体85会形成一基础电流源,如同前段所述的电流源401。The conduction diode 83 has an anode and a cathode, wherein the anode is connected to the third terminal of the first transistor 81 . The error amplifier 84 has a positive input, a negative input and an output, wherein the positive input of the error amplifier 84 is connected to a reference voltage source (reference voltage source, Vrs), and the negative input of the error amplifier 84 The terminal is connected to the cathode of the conduction diode 83 . The MONS transistor 85 has three terminals, wherein the first terminal is connected to the second terminal of the secondary LED light string group 20 , the second terminal is connected to the output terminal of the error amplifier 84 , and the third terminal is connected to the REST resistor 87 . The offset resistor 86 is connected between the negative input of the error amplifier 84 and the REST resistor 87 . Error amplifier 84 and MONS transistor 85 form a base current source, like current source 401 described in the preceding paragraph.

当流经电流感应电阻80的电流值大于内部电流源82的预设值时,过多的电流便会流向导流二极体83,此时,便会产生经过偏移电阻86的压降,进而产生参考电压源Vrs和REST电阻87间的一偏移电压,并使得流经LED的电流减少。减少的电流值可以下列方程式表示:When the current value flowing through the current sensing resistor 80 is greater than the preset value of the internal current source 82, the excessive current will flow to the divert diode 83, and at this time, a voltage drop across the offset resistor 86 will occur, Further, an offset voltage between the reference voltage source Vrs and the REST resistor 87 is generated, and the current flowing through the LED is reduced. The reduced current value can be expressed by the following equation:

ILED=(Vrs-R86×((VLED/R80)-I82))/R87。ILED=(Vrs-R86×((VLED/R80)-I82))/R87.

其中,Vrs是参考电压源的电压值、R86是偏移电阻86的电阻值、R80是电流感应电阻80的电阻值、I82是内部电流源的电流值、R87是REST电阻87的电阻值。Wherein, Vrs is the voltage value of the reference voltage source, R86 is the resistance value of the offset resistor 86 , R80 is the resistance value of the current sensing resistor 80 , I82 is the current value of the internal current source, and R87 is the resistance value of the REST resistor 87 .
