Description
Affiliated technical field
The present invention relates to LED illumination application field, be specifically related to a kind of LED illuminating product and allowing unloaded back to connect the hot line protective circuit of LED luminescence chip.
Background technology
Along with the development of great power LED (light-emitting diode) technology, the luminosity of white light LEDs is greatly improved.Rely on energy-conservation, the sharp environmental protection of its height, the life-span is long, volume is little, luminous characteristics such as stable; Large power white light LED has been applied to places such as indoor furniture illumination, road lighting, commercial lighting, is described as the revolution for the third time of lighting source after incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp.Can be divided into integral LED illuminating product and the LED illuminating product that adopts replaceable ballast by LED illuminating product structure.The first kind: incorporate LED illuminating product, can directly replace like traditional lighting light sources such as incandescent lamps, need not change other lighting installations such as lamp holder, electric wire, like the LED bulb lamp, LED Down lamp, LED shot-light etc.Because the drive circuit and the LED load of this type light fixture are to be contained in the non-removable light fixture; So their work has synchronism, promptly need only the light fixture energized, LED can be luminous immediately; Cut off the electricity supply; LED can extinguish immediately, does not have admissible no-load condition: there is electric current to flow through like drive circuit, and the LED load cut-off.Hotel lobby, supermarket illumination also can relate to the integral LED illuminating product.Second type: the LED illuminating product that adopts replaceable ballast.The modular ballast of the normal employing of this type of LED product driving power, promptly its driving power is a modularization, and is removable, like the LED street lamp, LED fluorescent tube T8, T12 and closet, the illumination of refrigerator class.The difference of it and integrated illumination product is that the work of ballast and LED has asynchronism.Usually the ballast in closet, the refrigerator is in and the power connection state always, and load is a Light Condition, and when opening the operation of needs illuminations such as district's closet door or refrigerator doors, the LED load just can be switched on and light.This type illuminating product is in the time need not throwing light on, and it is unloaded to allow to drive ballast.When changing LED street lamp and tube load, the situation that unloaded back directly is communicated with the LED load also possibly appear.LED uses illumination all can face the life problems of being brought by factors such as drive circuit, environment, temperature.The lost of life can strengthen the cost input of unit interval.
Because the LED illuminating product all is to be the light emitting source that relies on the drive circuit, electronic circuit has many uncertain safety factors, and its possibly self damage, and also possibly analogue damage the LED load because improper output current is excessive etc.From the drive circuit angle, how to tackle influences the LED problem predicted in illumination life-span, becomes the another new problem in LED illuminating engineering field.The electrochemical capacitor that a Da Rong value is all arranged at the output of led drive circuit.Most of led drive circuits all are operated in constant current mode.This just means, if output does not meet LED, in the time of promptly unloaded, the output voltage of drive circuit can be bigger than the sum that inserts LED forward conduction voltage.Go up LED if connect suddenly, will have a very large spine electric current to flow through the LED load, this spine electric current even possibly damage the LED luminescence chip.The traditional scheme of avoiding this kind situation to take place has: (1) NTC (thermistor of negative temperature coefficient) that connects with LED, but NTC can not bear the electric current spine impact of repetition; Output voltage when (2) zero load being set is a little more than LED forward conduction voltage sum.But this method only is fit to be applied to specific LED load; (3) semiconductor switch of connecting with LED, as shown in Figure 1.The shortcoming of sort circuit is: before connecting the LED load, the MOS switch is located and conducting state always, and power consumption increases.And after the whole LED illuminating product operate as normal, along with the rising of ambient temperature, the base-emitter voltage Vbe of triode Q3 will reduce, and possibly cause the Q3 fault open, even damage the MOS switching tube.

Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and embodiment the present invention is done and to further describe.
As shown in Figure 2, spine current protecting circuit of the present invention comprises load detecting circuit (electronic circuit 1), MOS switching tube (electronic circuit 2) and MOS switching tube protective circuit (electronic circuit 3) several sections.Simplified driving circuit is output as first voltage source.What keep the unlatching of MOS switching tube is second voltage source.
The negative pole of the voltage-stabiliser tube D4 of load detecting circuit divides two-way: the one tunnel connects the positive pole of drive circuit output V1, drive circuit output V1 minus earth; Another road connects the positive pole of LED luminescence chip string D1; The positive pole of voltage-stabiliser tube D4 is through the base stage of resistance R 5, triode Q4, the collector electrode of triode Q2, the grounded emitter of triode Q2.The base stage of triode Q2 is divided two-way after resistance R 6, the one tunnel connects the negative pole of LED luminescence chip string D3, and one the tunnel connects the drain terminal of MOS switching tube Q1; The grounded emitter of triode Q2; The collector electrode of triode Q2 divides two-way, and one the tunnel connects the base stage of triode Q4, and another road connects the positive pole of voltage-stabiliser tube D4 through resistance R 5.Triode Q3 base stage connects the collector electrode of triode Q2; The grounded emitter of triode Q4; The collector electrode of triode Q4 divides the grounded emitter of three tunnel: one tunnel collector electrode through triode Q3, triode Q3; The second the tunnel connects the grid of MOS switching tube Q1; Third Road divides two-way again after resistance R 1; One the tunnel through capacitor C 1 ground connection, and another road connects second voltage source V, 2 positive poles through resistance R 2, second voltage source V, 2 minus earths.The triode Q3 base stage of said MOS switch Q1 tube protective circuit is divided two-way: the one tunnel through resistance R 3 ground connection, and two-way is divided on another road again after capacitor C 2, and one the tunnel connects the source end of MOS switching tube Q1, and another road is through resistance R 4 ground connection; The grounded emitter of triode Q3; The collector electrode of triode Q3 connects the grid of MOS switching tube Q1.
Operation principle of the present invention is following:
Led drive circuit is output as under the unloaded situation, and the voltage of V1 output surpasses the voltage stabilizing value of voltage-stabiliser tube D4, D4 conducting.At this moment, the base stage of triode Q4 is a high potential, and Q4 is in opening.Make collector electrode and the emitter of Q4 be earth potential simultaneously, the grid of metal-oxide-semiconductor Q1 also is an earth potential, and Q1 is in closed condition.If connect LED luminescence chip load (D1, D2, D3) suddenly, the base stage of triode Q2 will become high potential through resistance R 6, open Q2.Also drag down simultaneously the base potential of Q4, make Q4 close.This moment, the output positive voltage of V2 directly was added on the grid of MOS switching tube Q1, made Q1 open conducting, and the drive circuit output current flows through Q1, and through resistance R 4, the inflow place forms the loop.The load of LED luminescence chip is lighted.
In the moment of connecting the LED load, Q1 opens.The LED load current R4 (current-limiting resistance) that flows through, and increase very fast.Capacitor C 2 can detect this peak current, converts high potential into through R4, and the base stage that makes triode Q3 is a high potential, opens Q3, drags down the grid high-voltage value of metal-oxide-semiconductor simultaneously.Lower metal-oxide-semiconductor Q1 grid voltage is in high impedance status by Q1; Thereby limit the size of current at the Q1 drain-source two ends of flowing through, promptly limited the spine current value of the LED luminescence chip load of this moment flowing through, as shown in Figure 3; Current peak is 0.81A, has descended 44.14% than original peak value.
Entire circuit gets into normal mode of operation subsequently, and the ambient temperature of circuit can rise a lot.Since the inherent characteristic of triode, along with the rising of ambient temperature, the base-emitter voltage (V of triode Q3
Be3) can descend.Though current-limiting resistance R4 resistance is less, VR4 still exists.Were it not for the existence of partiting dc capacitor C2, the situation of VR4＞Vbe3 possibly occur, open Q3 thereby trigger suddenly, drag down the metal-oxide-semiconductor grid potential, increase the switching loss of metal-oxide-semiconductor, long-time accumulation heating possibly damage switching tube, and extinguishes the LED luminescence chip.The existence of C2 can stop direct current to flow to the base stage of Q3.After the circuit operate as normal, the characteristic of capacitor C 2 stopping direct currents lets the base potential of Q3 be in 0 always.No matter under abominable hot conditions, the base-emitter voltage of Q3 is reduced to any degree, the Q3 conducting that also can not be triggered.C2 only allows pulse spine letter electric current to pass through, and acts on the Q3, so that closes Q1 and remove to limit LED and lighted by the spine electric current.C2 allows repeatably, and the spine electric current flows through.MOS switching tube protective circuit can repeat to protect the LED luminescence chip not damaged by the spine electric current, and protection MOS switching tube.
