Further, described light sensing unit comprises the first constant voltage power suspply, the first resistance, photodiode, and an end of described photodiode links to each other other end ground connection by the first resistance with the first constant voltage power suspply; Described photodiode links to each other with control unit with the contact of the first resistance.The electric current that photodiode passes through is along with the variation of extraneous light changes, the voltage of the contact of photodiode and the first resistance also can change thereupon like this, and control unit is known extraneous light situation of change by the voltage of the contact of the photodiode that receives and the first resistance.The light sensing unit only is comprised of three elements, and cost is low and more reliable.
Further, be in series with the first current-limiting resistance between the contact of described photodiode and the first resistance and the control unit, excessive and cause control unit to damage to the electric current of control unit with the contact input that prevents photodiode and the first resistance.
Further, the contact of described the first current-limiting resistance and control unit is by the first divider resistance ground connection, and is excessive and cause the control unit damage to the voltage of control unit with the contact input that prevents photodiode and the first resistance.
Further, the contact of described the first current-limiting resistance and control unit is by filter capacitor ground connection, to reduce clutter to the interference of control unit incoming signal.
Further, described backlight unit comprises the second constant voltage power suspply, LED, NPN type aerotron, the second current-limiting resistance, the 3rd current-limiting resistance, the second divider resistance, one end of described the second current-limiting resistance links to each other with control unit, and the other end is by the second divider resistance ground connection; Described the second current-limiting resistance links to each other with the base stage of NPN type aerotron with the contact of the second divider resistance, and the collecting electrode of described NPN type aerotron links to each other the grounded emitter of described NPN type aerotron by the 3rd current-limiting resistance, LED successively with the second constant voltage power suspply.The control signal that control unit sends can be controlled break-make and the size of current of NPN type aerotron, thus the brightness of control LED.
The backlight circuit of automobile combination meter of the present invention can realize that combination instrument automatic unlatching backlight sends from moving brightness adjusting according to the external environment Illumination intensity, thereby has improved the operation ease of chaufeur, safety.
