Cooperate Fig. 3, please refer to Fig. 6.Fig. 6 is the circuit diagram of third embodiment of the invention.Main difference is between the lighting device 3 of present embodiment and the lighting device 1 of Fig. 3, and the lighting device 3 of present embodiment more comprises a power back-off module 16.Power back-off module 16 is coupled to rectification unit 11, control module 10, first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14, and it is according to the voltage swing of input power supply Vbr, and the total current ILED of first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 is flow through in corresponding adjustment.In other words; Power back-off module 16 is along with the voltage swing of input power supply Vbr; So that the total current ILED that flows through first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 is compensated, under specified alternating current AC scope, let input power maintain in the rated range with order.
In aforementioned, lighting device 3 can effectively suppress to flow through the current peak of first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 through the compensating action of 16 pairs of electric currents of power back-off module.Compared to Fig. 4, as shown in Figure 7, during T1 to flow through electric current I 1 peak value of first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 comparatively smooth.In addition, during T2, electric current I 2 peak values that flow through first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 are also comparatively smooth.
What deserves to be mentioned is; Power back-off module 16 control module 10 of need not arranging in pairs or groups; Also can be independent couple with rectification unit 11, first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 constitutes a kind of lighting device (not indicating); With current compensation, make the input power of this kind lighting device can maintain in the rated range as this kind lighting device.
Power back-off module 16 comprises a VCCS 162 and a constant current source 164.VCCS 162 is coupled to rectification unit 11, according to the voltage swing of input power supply Vbr, and corresponding output one offset current Ibr.For instance, the voltage of input power supply Vbr is big more, and it is big that the offset current Ibr of corresponding output also becomes relatively, otherwise the voltage of input power supply Vbr is more little, and the offset current Ibr of corresponding output also diminishes relatively.In aforementioned; VCCS 162 comprises resistance R 1, R2, reaches Zener diode ZD1, and it utilizes the front end sampling mode to obtain the voltage swing of input power supply Vbr, again according to the voltage swing of importing power supply Vbr; Corresponding output offset current Ibr is with the compensation as total current ILED.
In addition; Constant current source 164 couples VCCS 162, control module 10, first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14; It receives offset current Ibr from VCCS 162; And, adjust the total current ILED that flows through first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 according to the size of offset current Ibr.For instance; Offset current Ibr is big more, and the total current ILED that then flows through first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 diminishes relatively, otherwise; Ibr is more little for offset current, and the total current ILED that then flows through first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 becomes big relatively.
In sum; Power back-off module 16 obtains the voltage of input power supply Vbr; And follow the voltage swing of input power supply Vbr, cross the total current ILED of first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 with corresponding flow compensated, and then total current ILED can be maintained within the rated range.
So; The lighting device 3 of present embodiment can utilize the compensation of power back-off module 16 as total current ILED; Let total current ILED be unlikely to receive unsettled input power supply Vbr influence; And then input power can be maintained in the rated range, be able to solve the influence that first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 receive unsettled alternating current AC and cause the problem of damaging with light decay.
Again with reference to figure 6.Constant current source 164 comprises transistor Q5, Q6, resistance R 4, R5, R6.Resistance R 4 is coupled to input power supply Vbr, and the drive current of transistor Q5 bias current and transistor Q6 is provided, and the controlled end B6 of transistor Q6 is controlled by transistor Q5.The electric current I D that flow through resistance R 6 this moment is about total current ILED, and the voltage VR6 that electric current I D sets up on resistance R 6 is to let transistor Q5 be operated in active region (active region).So, the transistor Q5 that is connected in the controlled end B6 of transistor Q6 promptly can be used for adjusting the total current ILED that flows through transistor Q6, makes it maintain a fixing current value.
In addition; The offset current Ibr that VCCS 162 is exported flow to resistance R 6 via the resistance R 5 of constant current source 164; When resistance R 5 during much larger than resistance R 6; Voltage VR6 can form the offset voltage (Offset Voltage) of Ibr * R5, can try to achieve ID * R6=VR6-Ibr * R5 according to Thevenin's theorem.So; The offset current Ibr of VCCS 162 outputs promptly can be as the compensation of total current ILED; Make the total current ILED can be along with the corresponding variation of voltage swing of input power supply Vbr; And then input power can be maintained in the rated range, caused the problem of damaging with light decay to solve the influence that first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14 receive unsettled alternating current AC.
Again with reference to figure 6.VCCS 162 also can be coupled to the output T12 of first light emitting module 12 and the output T22 of second light emitting module 14; And then according to the voltage difference delta V between input power supply Vbr and first light emitting module 12 and second light emitting module 14, with correspondence output offset current Ibr.Aforesaid VCCS 162 comprises resistance R 3 and Zener diode ZD2, and it utilizes the rear end sampling mode to obtain voltage difference delta V, again according to the corresponding output of voltage difference delta V offset current Ibr, with the compensation as total current ILED.
