V AVG = V 1 + V 2 + · · · + V n n
Therefore, when fluorescent tube module 52 comprised fluorescent tube L1 and L2, the running of averaging circuit 72 can be represented by following formula in the first embodiment of the invention:
V AVG = V 1 + V 2 2
If the user needs to adjust its brightness at each fluorescent tube in the light tube group 52 individually, can import controlling signal V by system INTo digitial controller 70, digitial controller 70 produces according to this corresponding to the reference signal of adjusting each fluorescent tube again.In first embodiment of the invention, when the user desired distinctly to adjust the brightness of fluorescent tube L1 and L2, digitial controller 70 can produce corresponding reference signal V respectively COM1And V COM2
Light modulator DIM1 and DIM2 can receive by the image controlling signal of system end after calculation process, or receive the controlling signal V that is sent by digitial controller 70 respectively COM1And V COM2, and by switch SW 1 and SW2 the signal that receives is reached proportional integral device PIC1 and PIC2 respectively.In first embodiment of the invention, light modulator DIM1 and DIM2 respectively comprise a resistance R 4 and a diode D1, but the different output voltage of mat is controlled different current waveforms, increase the elasticity of circuit design.

The effect of suspension joint type current regulator FCR1 and FCR2 is to carry out the adjustment of lamp current size, utilizes the interior lights coupling diode to regulate and control the lamp current size.FCR1 is an example with suspension joint type current regulator, when feedbacking signal V Fb1When becoming big, the electric current of flow through its optically-coupled diode and resistance R 11 is also big more, so its inner optotransistor ON time is just long more, the electric current I on the fluorescent tube L1 that flows through L1Also can become big; Anti-, when feedbacking signal V Fb1When diminishing, the electric current of flow through its optically-coupled diode and resistance R 11 is also more little, so its inner optotransistor ON time is just short more, the electric current I on the fluorescent tube L1 that flows through L1Also can diminish.In addition, impedor Z11 and Z21 can comprise elements such as diode or electric capacity, its role is to provide interchange sinusoidal signal another flow to the path.
According to different designs, can be coupled to positive input terminal or the negative input end of proportional integral device PIC1 and PIC2 respectively by switch SW 1 and SW2 as light modulator DIM1 and DIM2.When light modulator DIM1 and DIM2 were coupled to the negative input end of proportional integral device PIC1 and PIC2 by switch SW 1 and SW2 respectively, the back coupling signal of proportional integral device PIC1 and PIC2 output can be represented by following formula one: V fb ( t ) = V AVG + R 3 R 2 ( V AVG - V 1 ) + 1 R 2 C 1 ∫ 0 τ ( V AVG - V 1 ) dt + R 3 R 1 ( V AVG - V COM ) + 1 R 1 C 1 ∫ 0 τ ( V AVG - V COM ) dt If resistance R 3 is 0 ohm, then proportional integral device PIC1 and PIC2 can be considered as integrator (IController), this moment, the back coupling signal of proportional integral device PIC1 and PIC2 output can be represented by following formula two:
V fb ( t ) = V AVG + 1 R 2 C 1 ∫ 0 τ ( V AVG - V 1 ) dt + 1 R 1 C 1 ∫ 0 τ ( V AVG - V com ) dt
At the purpose of electric current current-sharing the time, do not consider earlier controlling signal V COM, by formula one or formula two as can be known, voltage V 1Must equal average signal V AVG, back coupling signal V FbVoltage just can be fixed up.Therefore, back coupling signal V Fb1And V Fb2Can drive suspension joint type current regulator FCR1 and FCR2 respectively, so that the voltage V that corresponding signal detecting device SS1 and SS2 are produced 1And V 2Difference convergence back coupling signal V Fb1And V Fb2Value.So, each lamp tube current energy convergence one identical value of flowing through, and the current-sharing effect of acquisition light intensity unanimity.When the purpose of adjusting at image, controlling signal V COMAlso need consider, except voltage V 1And V 2Outward, controlling signal V COMAlso can influence the value of back coupling signal.Therefore by changing controlling signal V COM1And V COM2Value, can change voltage V respectively 1And V 2Convergence back coupling signal V Fb1And V Fb2End value.

In second embodiment of the invention shown in Figure 7, back coupling controller 62 comprises an averaging circuit 72, a light modulator DIM, and a proportional integral device PIC.Owing to drive the structure of single fluorescent tube one group of voltage V is only arranged 1, voltage V 1Can reach proportional integral device PIC by averaging circuit 72.If user's desire is adjusted the brightness of fluorescent tube L, can import controlling signal V by system INTo digitial controller 70, digitial controller 70 produces according to this corresponding to the reference signal V that adjusts fluorescent tube L again COM, reference signal V COMCan reach proportional integral device PIC by switch SW.
According to different designs, can be coupled to positive input terminal or the negative input end of proportional integral device PIC as light modulator DIM by switch SW.When light modulator DIM is coupled to the negative input end of proportional integral device PIC by switch SW, the back coupling signal V of proportional integral device PIC output FbCan represent by following formula three:
V fb ( t ) = V 1 + R 3 R 1 ( V 1 - V COM ) + 1 R 1 C 1 ∫ 0 τ ( V 1 - V COM ) dt
If resistance R 3 is 0 ohm, then proportional integral device PIC1 and PIC2 can be considered integrator, the back coupling signal V of proportional integral device PIC output this moment FbCan represent by following formula four::
V fb ( t ) = V 1 + 1 R 1 C 1 ∫ 0 τ ( V 1 - V COM ) dt
The purpose of adjusting at image, by formula three or formula four as can be known, voltage V 1Must equal controlling signal V COM, back coupling signal V FbVoltage just can be fixed up.Therefore feedback signal V FbCan drive suspension joint type current regulator FCR, so that the voltage V that signal detecting device SS is produced 1Convergence controlling signal V COMValue.Therefore by changing controlling signal V COMValue, can change voltage V 1Convergence controlling signal V COMEnd value, to reach the purpose that image is adjusted.
