In the middle of instructions and claims, used some vocabulary to censure specific assembly.Having common knowledge the knowledgeable in the affiliated field should understand, and same assembly may be called with different nouns by manufacturer.This instructions and claims are not used as distinguishing the mode of assembly with the difference of title, but the benchmark that is used as distinguishing with the difference of assembly on function.Be to be an open term mentioned " comprising " in the middle of instructions and the follow-up claim in the whole text, so should be construed to " comprise but be not limited to ".In addition, " electric connection " speech is to comprise any indirect means that are electrically connected that directly reach at this.Therefore, be electrically connected at one second device, then represent this first device can be directly connected in this second device, or be connected to this second device through other device or the intersegmental ground connection of connection hand if describe one first device in the literary composition.
Please refer to Fig. 4, Fig. 4 is used for a light emitting diode (Light EmittingDiode, LED) synoptic diagram of the one drive circuit 40 of back light system for the embodiment of the invention.Driving circuit 40 includes an input voltage vin, an input resistance Rin, an operational amplifier OP1, a first transistor Q1 and a current operator unit 42.The positive input terminal of operational amplifier OP1 sees through input resistance Rin and is electrically connected at input voltage vin, and its output terminal is electrically connected at negative input end through a beta-network 41.The first transistor Q1 preferably is a two-carrier junction transistor (Bipolar Junction Transistor; BJT), its collection utmost point is electrically connected at the positive input terminal of operational amplifier OP1, and emitter-base bandgap grading sees through a reference resistance R1 and is electrically connected at a reference voltage Vgg; And base stage is electrically connected at the output terminal of operational amplifier OP1; Be used for drawing a reference current I1, with the output voltage V out of control operational amplifier OP1 according to input voltage vin and input resistance Rin.Current operator unit 42 is electrically connected at output terminal and the reference voltage Vgg of operational amplifier OP1; Be used for output voltage V out according to operational amplifier; Produce and the proportional working current I2~In of reference current I1, with driven for emitting lights diode series LED_2~LED_n.
Preferably, beta-network 41 is to be made up of a back coupling capacitor C f and a feedback resistance Rf.The end of back coupling capacitor C f is electrically connected at the output terminal of operational amplifier OP1, and the other end then is electrically connected at the negative input end of operational amplifier OP1; The end of feedback resistance Rf is electrically connected at negative input end and the back coupling capacitor C f of operational amplifier OP1, and the other end then is electrically connected at a ground end, and is as shown in Figure 4.In addition, current operator unit 42 also includes transistor seconds Q2~Qn, and it is all the two-carrier junction transistor, and has the electrical specification that is same as the first transistor Q1.The collection utmost point of transistor seconds Q2~Qn is electrically connected at light emitting diode series LED_2~LED_n respectively; Emitter-base bandgap grading sees through current-limiting resistance R2~Rn respectively and is electrically connected at reference voltage Vgg; Base stage then is electrically connected at the output terminal of operational amplifier OP1 respectively; Be used for size according to the output voltage V out and the corresponding current-limiting resistance of operational amplifier, produce and the proportional working current I2~In of reference current I1.About the detailed operation principle of driving circuit 40, please continue with reference to following explanation.
Because operational amplifier OP1 operates in the negative feedback configuration; Therefore positive input terminal and the negative input end of operational amplifier OP1 have the characteristic of imaginary short (virtual ground); And make the positive input terminal current potential of operational amplifier OP1 equal the current potential of negative input end, it can be expressed as:
V (+)=V (-)=0 (1)
Under this situation, the big young pathbreaker of the reference current I1 that the first transistor Q1 is drawn equals:
I 1 = Vin Rin - - - ( 2 )
Because the collected current of the first transistor Q1 is similar to emitter current, so the output voltage V out of operational amplifier can be expressed as:
Vout=Vbe+I1×R1+Vgg (3)
Wherein, Vbe represents the voltage difference of transistor base to emitter-base bandgap grading.In addition; Because transistor seconds Q2~Qn also need satisfy (3) formula, therefore when the equal and opposite in direction of current-limiting resistance R2~Rn during in reference resistance R1, i.e. R1=R2=Λ=Rn; Working current I2~In that transistor seconds Q2~Qn is produced also is equal to reference current I1, and it can be expressed from the next:
I 1 = I 2 = Λ = In = Vin Rin - - - ( 4 )
In other words; When the first transistor Q1 draws reference current I1 through input resistance Rin; Also determined simultaneously the output voltage V out size of operational amplifier, produced equal and opposite in direction in working current I2~In of reference current I1 with control transistor seconds Q2~Qn.
Therefore, driving circuit 40 of the present invention can produce and the irrelevant steady operation electric current I 2~In of load, with driven for emitting lights diode series LED_2~LED_n according to input voltage vin and input resistance Rin.Thus, the present invention not only can effectively reduce the difference between current between each light emitting diode series, also can avoid its size of current to change with temperature variation, thereby controls the brightness of light emitting diode effectively.
It should be noted that; Above-mentioned embodiment is merely of the present invention one explanation for example; This area tool knows that usually the knowledgeable revises when making according to the actual requirements suitably; For example adjust the size of current-limiting resistance R2~Rn, the working current I2~In that is produced with control transistor seconds Q2~Qn and proportionate relationship of reference current I1 or the like, it also belongs to scope of the present invention.
In addition, driving circuit of the present invention also can realize having the back light system of dimming function, controls with the brightness to light emitting diode.For instance, please refer to Fig. 5, Fig. 5 is used for the embodiment synoptic diagram of the one drive circuit 50 of backlight system of light-emitting diode for the present invention.Driving circuit 50 roughly is similar to the driving circuit 40 of the 4th figure, and difference is that driving circuit 50 also includes a voltage-regulating circuit 55, is coupled to input voltage vin, is used for adjusting the size of input voltage vin.Thus, driving circuit 50 of the present invention can be by the adjustment input voltage vin, and the working current size that control is produced is with the brightness of adjustment light emitting diode series LED_2~LED_n.
On the other hand, please continue with reference to figure 6, Fig. 6 is used for the embodiment synoptic diagram of the one drive circuit 60 of backlight system of light-emitting diode for the present invention.Compared to Fig. 5; Driving circuit 60 includes a pulse wave width modulation (Pulse Width Modulation; PWM) controller 65, are coupled to input voltage vin, are used for input voltage vin is carried out modulation; With the deration of signal by the adjustment input voltage vin, LED_2~LED_n carries out light modulation to the light emitting diode series.The coherent signal oscillogram is as shown in Figure 7, and its mode of operation is that this area tool knows that usually the knowledgeable knows, and does not add to give unnecessary details in this.
