Fig. 6 illustrates the schematic diagram according to another embodiment of the LED lighting device of tunable optical of the present invention.
Fig. 1 has schematically illustrated the LED lighting device according to tunable optical of the present invention.AC supply voltage for example 220V alternating voltage is supplied to phase-control circuit, such as TRIAC (Triac).TRIAC links to each other with user interface U/I, and user interface for example can be the key switch of rotary light adjustment switch or tunable optical.Thereby the user can pass through user interface (switch, button, slide block ...) comes regulating power source voltage by TRIAC phase control now.At first the corresponding alternating voltage of phase control of having taked is supplied with rectifier GR, this rectifier carries out rectification to the alternating voltage that has alternately been carried out phase control, provide it to subsequently so-called passive paddy circuit (or being also referred to as passive valley fill circuit) PVF that fills out that is located at the downstream, it is the example of accumulator ES.
It carries out harmonic (the additional rectifier of being located at therebetween can be set for this reason at this), and corresponding direct voltage is flowed to drive circuit, such as anti exciting converter FBC.Also can be used as drive circuit and in conjunction with anti exciting converter other example is described, but also can adopt picture by abundant disclosed other converter of prior art institute.The anti exciting converter FBC that uses as drive circuit in this example is according to the direct voltage of adjusting primary side for the running parameter of its setting, play the effect of DC/DC converter, and the direct voltage that adjusts is supplied to one or more LED and/or OLED.At this, control circuit STS is identified for the running parameter of this drive circuit.Carry out according to accumulator ES's and/or drive circuit output voltage definite this moment of running parameter.In addition, as another reference, can measure the LED electric current.
Central point of the present invention is, and phase control signal (that is, and the supply voltage after the corresponding modulation, this supply voltage is corresponding to the ideal value of being scheduled to by the user) after through rectifier GR rectification, be supplied to the passive paddy circuit PVF that fills out.The present invention has found that the passive output voltage of filling out paddy circuit PVF embodies phase control.Thereby, in other words indirectly (namely for example at the drive circuit output) or directly at the passive measurement of output end output voltage of filling out paddy circuit PVF, in order to infer that thus the user is by the desired light modulation value of phase control.In other words, this output voltage is converted into a kind of light modulation predetermined value by control circuit STS, thereby in LED the light modulation predetermined value in the control circuit STS is converted to the power determination parameter subsequently.The passive output voltage of filling out paddy circuit PVF is a kind of bus voltage.

In other words, on the whole, the passive paddy circuit PVF that fills out among Fig. 1 is a kind of electron stored energy device ES, and it for example has any type of capacitor circuit.Corresponding therewith, can expect that also the accumulator circuit of other form replaces the passive paddy circuit PVF that fills out.In the case, especially expect with the rectifier bridge of being located at the upstream that is provided with energy storage capacitor in the downstream.Also can use the multistage passive paddy circuit PVF that fills out.In addition, also can adopt single-stage or multiple-stage charge pump (charge pump sees that Fig. 4 or active control type circuit of power factor correction are for example as booster converter).Also can expect at last, adopt the combination that is consisted of by described circuit, especially by charge pump with passively fill out the combination that paddy circuit PVF consists of.
As mentioned above, the amplitude light modulation of LED is preferably especially undertaken by so-called anti exciting converter FBC.In other words, utilize the switch clock frequency of according to the present invention ground adjusting anti exciting converter FBC to come adjusting amplitude according to the light modulation ideal value of being set up by control circuit STS this moment.Inspection (whether namely check described light modulation ideal value is also correctly changed) can be undertaken by the LED electric current of measuring as actual value.But now alternative or addedly expect, carry out pulse-width modulation to realize the LED light modulation.
Fig. 2 illustrates a kind of modification of the lighting device of Fig. 1., also be provided with another circuit unit in drive circuit FBC downstream here, it can allow the electric current of regulation flow through the LED section based on the dc voltage of supplying.The latter for example is pwm circuit.Now, can actual light modulation value be adjusted to detected predetermined ideal value by the clock frequency of adjusting pwm circuit.Perhaps, it will also be appreciated that compound adjustment by drive circuit (amplitude light modulation) and pwm circuit.
