控制器202可透過有線(wired)或無線(wireless)的方式,除本身已內置的發光命令亦可從外部接收外部發光命令Clo,使得控制器202可根據發光命令或外部發光命令Clo的內容控制功率開關SW的導通與截止而產生發光驅動訊號Sd,以通過發光驅動訊號Sd對發光二極體模組30-1~30-n進行發光控制。舉例來說,使用者可透過操作電腦的方式,以有線的方式將外部發光命令Clo傳送至控制器202,使控制器202根據外部發光命令Clo進行發光控制。或者,使用者可透過操作手機或穿戴式裝置的方式,以無線的方式將外部發光命令Clo傳送至控制器202,使控制器202根據外部發光命令Clo進行發光控制。然不以上述傳送外部發光命令Clo的方式以及操作的使用者裝置限制本發明。
The
以控制器202欲根據傳輸屬於發光二極體模組30-1的發光命令而對應地傳輸屬於發光二極體模組30-1的發光驅動訊號Sd為例,控制器202可通過控制功率開關SW切換而產生命令傳輸的通知訊號。發光二極體模組30-1~30-n收到此通知訊號時,即進行命令接收的階段。然後,控制器202通過控制功率開關SW的導通與截止而將屬於發光二極體模組30-1的發光命令轉換為發光驅動訊號Sd。其發光驅動訊號Sd的脈波可以以”0”和”1”形式的位址資料加上LED燈的亮度”11”、顏色”10”構成發光驅動訊號Sd。發光驅動訊號Sd例如但不限於包括10個脈波,且位址資料對應第一個發光二極體模組30-1的位址。發光二極體模組30-1~30-n收到位址資料時,發光二極體模組30-1即得知接續傳遞的發光驅動訊號Sd屬於自我的發光驅動訊號Sd,以將此發光驅動訊號Sd進行訊號辨識。待9個脈波辨識完成後,控制器202通過控制功率開關SW切換而產生命令傳輸完成的通知訊號(即最後一個脈波),發光二極體模組30-1即根據此通知訊號產生鎖存訊號而將9個脈波所對應的發光命令儲存,且根據所儲存的
發光命令產生發光行為。值得一提,發光二極體模組30-1具有多種的的控制方式,但其精神大致上同於上述的控制方式,且發光二極體模組30-2~30-n的控制方式亦同於發光二極體模組30-1,在此不再加以贅述。

請參閱圖1B為本發明具有休眠模式之發光二極體燈串第二實施例之電路方塊圖,復配合參閱圖1A。本實施例之發光二極體燈串100’與圖1A之發光二極體燈串100差異在於,發光二極體燈串100’並未包括整流器40,且發光二極體模組30-1~30-n以並聯的方式耦接。發光二極體燈串100的控制模組20接收由外部提供的直流工作電壓Vdc,且控制至少一發光二極體模組30-1~30-n之發光行為。值得一提,於本發明之一實施例中,發光二極體燈串100’未提及的元件、元件的耦接關係及控制方式同於圖1A,在此不再加以贅述。

請參閱圖1C為本發明發光驅動訊號之波形示意圖,復配合參閱圖1A~1B。本實施例之發光驅動訊號Sd係以10個週期的脈波示意,在控制器202控制功率開關SW導通時,直流工作電壓Vdc通過電源線10形成對發光二極體模組30-1~30-n供電的供電迴路。當控制器202欲產生發光驅動訊號Sd時,控制器根據發光命令持續切換功率開關SW的導通與截止,使電源線10上的直流工作電壓Vdc因切換而形成10個週期的脈波Pu組合成的發光驅動訊號Sd,且通過電源線10傳送至發光二極體模組30-1。其中,最後一個脈波Pu在低準位的時間較長,當發光二極體模組30-1偵測到脈波Pu在低準位的時間較長時,此脈波Pu即為命令傳輸完成的通知訊號。即最後一個脈波Pu在低準位的時間超過了前9個脈波在低準位時的持續時間Th。此時,發光二極體模組30-1~30-n即根據此通知訊號產生鎖存訊號而將9個脈波Pu所對應的發光命令儲存,且根據所儲存的發光命令產生發光行為。

請參閱圖2A為本發明具有休眠模式之發光二極體模組之電路方塊圖、圖2B為本發明發光驅動訊號的其中之一脈波波形示意圖,復配合參閱圖1A~1B,且反覆參閱圖2A、2B。每個發光二極體模組30-1~30-n皆包括偵測電路302、驅動電路304及至少一發光二極體306(本實施例係以三個發光二極體306做為示意性的範例),且驅動電路304耦接偵測電路302與發光二極體306。偵測電路302通過電源線10接收直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd,且根據發光驅動訊號Sd而提供第一偵測訊號S1與第二偵測訊號S2至驅動電路304。驅動電路304通過電源線10接收直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd,在驅動電路304接收直流工作電壓Vdc時,驅動電路304運作在工作模式。此時,驅動電路304內的控制單元304A根據發光命令Cl控制發光二極體306之發光行為,發光命令Cl係通過控制器202先前提供的發光驅動訊號Sd而獲得。於本發明之一實施例中,發光二極體模組30-1~30-n中的偵測電路302、驅動電路304可為封裝在一起的控制器,但不以此為限。換言之,可依照實際需求將整個發光二極體模組30-1~30-n封裝在一起,或發光二極體模組30-1~30-n內部的元件可獨立設置。

在驅動電路304接收發光驅動訊號Sd時,驅動電路304根據第一偵測訊號S1與第二偵測訊號S2調整運作的模式。具體而言,如圖2B所示,功率開關SW在時間t0時關斷,使得發光驅動訊號Sd開始下降。在驅動電路304通過第一偵測訊號S1得知發光驅動訊號Sd下降至小於第一閥值V1時(時間t1),驅動電路304進行發光驅動訊號Sd的訊號辨識。此時,驅動電路304仍然運作在工作模式,且發光驅動訊號Sd的訊號辨識在時間t2時完成。在發光驅動訊號Sd完成後(及時間t2之後),驅動電路304由工作模式進入休眠模式。在驅動電路304通過第二偵測訊號S2得知發光驅動訊號Sd下降至小於第二閥值V2時
(時間t3),驅動電路304降低該發光驅動訊號Sd的放電速度(意即,電壓下降的斜率改變)。最後,在時間t4時,脈波的電壓由小於第二閥值V2上升至大於第一閥值V1,使得驅動電路304由休眠模式返回至工作模式。此時,驅動電路304被喚醒而進入工作模式。因此可以得知,在發光驅動訊號Sd辨識完成至脈波的電壓由小於第二閥值V2上升至大於第一閥值V1時,驅動電路304即處於休眠模式,除此之外驅動電路304皆處於工作模式。
When the driving
進一步而言,如圖2A所示,驅動電路304包括振盪器3042、鎖存電路3044、放電電路3046及控制單元304A,且控制單元304A包括邏輯電路304A-1、暫存器304A-2及驅動器304A-3。在驅動電路304處於工作模式時,上述的元件皆通過接收直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd而運作。由於振盪器3042所產生的時脈訊號CLK與控制單元304A的運作息息相關,且振盪器3042又是驅動電路304處於工作模式時主要的耗電元件,因此本發明之主要目的及功效在於,在驅動電路304處於休眠模式時,驅動電路304不工作(即主要係關斷振盪器3042,以關斷驅動電路304主要的耗電元件)及類比線路。且由於振盪器3042的關斷,使得控制單元304A中部分通過時脈訊號CLK所運作的電路(例如但不限於驅動器304A-3,邏輯電路304A-1與暫存器304A-2的部分線路)同時被關斷,以達到節省發光二極體模組30-1~30-n耗電量。值得一提,由於鎖存電路3044的運作並未使用時脈訊號CLK,因此在振盪器3042被關斷時,鎖存電路3044仍然可在休眠模式時根據第一偵測訊號S1提供鎖存訊號Sl。此外,邏輯電路304A-1乃為數位被動元件,因此即便在驅動電路304處於休眠模式時,只要發光驅動訊號Sd脈波的電壓由小於第二閥值V2上升至大於第一閥值V1而使
得第二偵測訊號S2產生變化時,被動的邏輯電路304A-1仍然可通過訊號的輸出而喚醒驅動電路304內的所有元件。
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2A, the driving
復參閱圖2A,控制單元304A接收直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd作為運作時所需的電源。邏輯電路304A-1耦接偵測電路302,且根據第一偵測訊號S1進行發光驅動訊號Sd的訊號辨識,以及根據第二偵測訊號S2提供休眠訊號Ss至振盪器3042。暫存器304A-2耦接邏輯電路304A-1,且在邏輯電路304A-1收到鎖存訊號Sl時,邏輯電路304A-1將經辨識後的發光驅動訊號Sde提供至暫存器304A-2,使暫存器304A-2將其儲存為發光命令Cl。驅動器304A-3耦接暫存器304A-2與發光二極體306,且暫存器304A-2根據發光命令Cl控制驅動器304A-3驅動發光二極體306,使發光二極體306產生發光行為。值得一提,本發明之控制單元304A係將發光驅動訊號Sd中的複數脈波一次性地提供至暫存器304A-2儲存,使得暫存器304A-2可一次性地儲存完整的發光命令Cl,而並非收到一次脈波即根據單一脈波調整發光二極體306的發光行為,以避免發光命令Cl容易錯誤而使發光二極體306產生錯誤的發光行為的狀況。
Referring again to FIG. 2A, the
振盪器3042接收直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd,且耦接控制單元304A與控制單元304A中的邏輯電路304A-1。在工作模式時,振盪器3042根據直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd提供時脈訊號CLK至控制單元304A,使控制單元304A中,部分需要時脈訊號CLK的元件(圖未示)根據時脈訊號CLK而運作。在休眠模式時,邏輯電路304A-1根據第二偵測訊號S2而提供的休眠訊號Ss會使得振盪器3042被關斷而不再提供時脈訊號CLK至控制單元304A。藉此於休眠模式時,消耗電力較高的振盪器3042與部分藉由時脈訊號CLK而運作的元件停止運作,以節省發光二極體模組30-1~30-n的耗電量。在休眠模
式返回工作模式時,第二偵測訊號S2會產生變化,使得邏輯電路304A-1根據第二偵測訊號S2的變化而調整休眠訊號Ss,進而通過所提供的休眠訊號Ss而喚醒振盪器3042。值得一提,於本發明之一實施例中,在休眠模式時,邏輯電路304A-1根據第二偵測訊號S2而提供的休眠訊號Ss除了關斷振盪器3042之外,同時也可關斷驅動電路304中,其他的類比線路(圖未示),待由休眠模式回到工作模式時,再啟動其他的類比線路(圖未示)。例如但不限於,休眠訊號Ss可控制部分的訊號偵測電路、保護電路等休眠或工作。藉此,可更為節省發光二極體模組30-1~30-n耗電量。
The
鎖存電路3044接收直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd,且根據第一偵測訊號S1而提供鎖存訊號Sl至邏輯電路304A-1。具體而言,鎖存電路3044係利用時間的長短控制所提供的鎖存訊號Sl。在發光驅動訊號Sd中的脈波寬度過短時,鎖存電路3044所提供鎖存訊號Sl會使得邏輯電路304A-1不會將發光命令Cl提供至暫存器304A-2。在發光驅動訊號Sd中的脈波寬度夠長時,代表發光驅動訊號Sd小於第一閥值V1的時間大於等於持續時間。此時,鎖存電路3044所提供的鎖存訊號Sl會使得邏輯電路304A-1根據鎖存訊號Sl通知暫存器304A-2將經辨識後的發光驅動訊號Sde提供至暫存器304A-2儲存為發光命令Cl。
The
放電電路3046耦接偵測電路302與電源線10,且根據第二偵測訊號S2得知發光驅動訊號Sd小於第二閥值V2時,放電電路3046降低發光驅動訊號Sd的放電速度。具體而言,由於某些控制單元304A不具有斷電記憶的功能。意即,直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值過低後,控制單元304A內部記憶的資料被清除(例如但不限於發光命令Cl),因此發光驅動訊號Sd
在低準位時的電壓值必須要保持在最低工作電壓Vm以上(如圖2B所示),以避免控制單元304A因電壓過低而重置(Reset)。其中,放電電路3046最主要為盡可能地將發光驅動訊號Sd的放電速度降到最低,以不至於使發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值下降過快,進而較容易地撐過最後一個脈波Pu在低準位的時間(因為最後一個脈波Pu在低準位的時間較長)。本發明利用放電電路3046在發光驅動訊號Sd小於第二閥值V2時降低發光驅動訊號Sd的放電速度,可避免上述發光驅動訊號Sd放電過快而使電壓值低於最低工作電壓Vm之功效。
The
發光二極體模組30-1~30-n更包括類比線路3046,類比線路3046接收直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd作為電力來源,且耦接控制單元304A。發光二極體模組30-1~30-n為具有燒錄功能之燈串,因此各發光二極體模組30-1~30-n具有各自對發光資料、位址資料進行燒錄處理的數位與類比線路,例如負責發光控制的發光控制單元、負責位址信號處理的位址信號處理單元以及負責位址燒錄的位址燒錄單元(圖未示)。在休眠模式時,控制單元304A所提供的休眠訊號Ss除了關斷振盪器3042外,同時也關斷類比線路3046,以節省發光二極體模組30-1~30-n耗電量。
The light-emitting diode modules 30-1-30-n further include an
發光二極體模組30-1~30-n更包括儲能電容C,儲能電容C耦接發光二極體模組30-1~30-n的輸入端與輸出端之間,且用以在直流工作電壓Vdc或發光驅動訊號Sd由發光二極體模組30-1~30-n的輸入端傳遞至輸出端(通過電源線10)時,穩定發光二極體模組30-1~30-n兩端(即輸入端與輸出端)的電壓,以降低發光二極體模組30-1~30-n因兩端的電壓浮動而造成發光二極體模組30-1~30-n控制錯誤的不穩定性。值得一提,於本發明之一實施例中,儲能電容C僅為穩 定發光二極體模組30-1~30-n兩端的電壓之用,其非為發光二極體模組30-1~30-n的必要元件,因此以虛線表示。 The light emitting diode module 30-1~30-n further includes an energy storage capacitor C. The energy storage capacitor C is coupled between the input end and the output end of the light emitting diode module 30-1~30-n, and is used To stabilize the light-emitting diode module 30-1 when the DC working voltage Vdc or the light-emitting drive signal Sd is transmitted from the input end of the light-emitting diode module 30-1~30-n to the output end (through the power line 10) ~30-n The voltage at both ends (i.e. input and output) to reduce the LED module 30-1~30-n due to the voltage floating at both ends of the LED module 30-1~30 -n controls the instability of errors. It is worth mentioning that in one embodiment of the present invention, the energy storage capacitor C is only a stable It is used to determine the voltage at both ends of the light-emitting diode module 30-1~30-n. It is not a necessary component of the light-emitting diode module 30-1~30-n, so it is indicated by a dashed line.

當發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值大於第一參考電壓Vref1與第二參考電壓Vref2時,第一比較器302B與第二比較器302C為高準位輸出,使得驅動電路304處於工作模式。當發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值介於第一參考電壓Vref1與第二參考電壓Vref2之間時,第一比較器302B為低準位輸出,且第二比較器302C為高準位輸出。此時,驅動電路304進行發光驅動訊號Sd的訊號辨識。當發光驅動訊號Sd辨識完成後(發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值介於第一參考電壓Vref1與第二參考電壓Vref2之間),驅動電路304由工作模式進入休眠模式。當發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值小於第一參考電壓Vref1與第二參考電壓Vref2時,第一比較器302B與第二比較器302C為低準位輸出,使得驅動電路304降低發光驅動訊號Sd的放電速度。值得一提,由於直流工作電壓Vdc為固定的電壓值,使得經第一比較器302B比較後的第一偵測訊號S1也為固定值。意即,僅有具有脈波變化的發光驅動訊號Sd會使得第一比較器302B所比較出的結果產生變化,第二比較器302C同理。

當發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值大於第一參考電壓Vref1時,第一開關Q1導通,第一偵測訊號S1與第二偵測訊號S2輸出為高準位,使得驅動電路304處於工作模式。當發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值小於第一參考電壓Vref1時,第一開關Q1導通,第一偵測訊號S1輸出為低準位,且第二偵測訊號S2輸出為高準位。此時,驅動電路304進行發光驅動訊號Sd的訊號辨識。當發光驅動訊號Sd辨識完成後(發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值小於第一參考電壓Vref1至第一開關Q1關斷之間),驅動電路304由工作模式進入休眠模式。當發光驅動訊號Sd的電壓值過低時,第一開關Q1關斷,第一偵測訊號S1與第二偵測訊號S2輸出為低準位,使得驅動電路304降低發光驅動訊號Sd。值得一提,由於在數位的電路中,類比轉數位的訊號需要使用緩衝閘來增加訊號強度,因此在第一偵測訊號S1與第二偵測訊號S2輸出的路徑上可加裝緩衝閘B,以提升第一偵測訊號S1與第二偵測訊號S2的訊號強度。

在偵測電路302所提供的第一偵測訊S1代表發光驅動訊號Sd大於第一閥值V1時(如圖2B,時間t1之前),第二開關Q2關斷,且第三開關Q3導通,使得第二電容C2儲能。在發光驅動訊號Sd由大於第一閥值V1降低至小於第一閥值V1時,第二開關Q2導通,且第三開關Q3關斷,使得第二電容C2開始放電。在發光驅動訊號Sd小於第一閥值V1的時間大於等於持續時間時,第二電容C2已將內部儲存的能量洩放至低於預定值。此時,第二電容C2與第二電阻R2之間節點所提供的鎖存訊號Sl使邏輯電路304A-1通知暫存器304A-2將經辨識後的發光驅動訊號Sde儲存為發光命令Cl。值得一提,在鎖存訊號Sl輸出的路徑上也可加裝緩衝閘B,其功效如同圖3B所述。

在偵測電路302所提供的第一偵測訊S1代表發光驅動訊號Sd大於第一閥值V1時(如圖2B,時間t1之前),第二開關Q2導通,且第三開關Q3關斷,使得第二電容C2儲能。在發光驅動訊號Sd由大於第一閥值V1降低至小於第一閥值V1時,第二開關Q2關斷,且第三開關Q3導通,使得第二電容C2開始放電。在發光驅動訊號Sd小於第一閥值V1的時間大於等於持續時間時,第二電容C2已將內部儲存的能量洩放至低於預定值。此時,第二電阻R2與第二電容C2之間節點所提供的鎖存訊號Sl使邏輯電路304A-1通知暫存器304A-2將經辨識後的發光驅動訊號Sde儲存為發光命令Cl。值得一提,在鎖存訊號Sl輸出的路徑上也可加裝緩衝閘B,其功效如同圖3B所述。

請參閱圖5C為本發明鎖存電路第三實施例之電路示意圖,復配合參閱圖1A~5B。本實施例之鎖存電路3044’’與圖5A之鎖存電路3044差異在於,鎖存電路3044’’由邏輯閘所構成,其可通過及閘、或閘及反向閘等邏輯閘所構成,且整合於邏輯電路304A-1中。在發光驅動訊號Sd小於第一閥值V1的時間大於等於持續時間時,鎖存電路3044’’的邏輯閘所提供的鎖存訊號Sl使得邏輯電路304A-1中,及閘AND的輸出產生變化。邏輯電路304A-1根據此變化通知暫存器304A-2將經辨識後的發光驅動訊號Sde儲存為發光命令Cl。值得一提,及閘AND的輸出可能經過額外的邏輯閘(圖未式)判斷後(例如但不限
於,保護邏輯電路等),方能輸出經辨識後的發光驅動訊號Sde,因此及閘AND的輸出至經辨識後的發光驅動訊號Sde之間以虛線表示。

請參閱圖6為本發明放電電路之電路示意圖,復配合參閱圖1A~5C。放電電路3046包括放電開關Q4,且放電開關Q4輸入端X、輸出端Y及控制端Z。放電開關Q4的輸入端耦接電源線10,放電開關Q4的輸出端Y耦接接地點,且放電開關Q4的控制端Z接收第二偵測訊號S2。其中,電路連接方式僅為示意之用,非以限制本發明,只要能夠根據第二偵測訊號S2的變化而調整發光驅動訊號Sd的放電速度皆應包含於本發明之範疇中。當發光驅動訊號Sd大於第二閥值V2時,第二偵測訊號S2控制放電開關Q4導通,使得發光驅動訊號Sd對地產生電流路徑而快速地放電。當發光驅動訊號Sd小於第二閥值V2時,第二偵測訊號S2控制放電開關Q4關斷,使發光驅動訊號Sd浮接(Floating),使得發光驅動訊號Sd通過放電開關Q4的關斷而降低放電速度。值得一提,為避免放電開關Q4導通時,通過放電開關Q4流至接地點的電流過大,因此可在發光驅動訊號Sd至接地點的電流路徑上安裝第四電阻R4,以限制此電流路徑的電流大小。
