When switching 316 connection, electric current flows through switch 316, resistance 218, inductance 302, light source Module 118 is to the ground of light source driving circuit 200.When switch 316 disconnection, electric current flow through resistance 218, Inductance 302, light source module 118 and diode 314.Inductance 304 couples with inductance 302 and can The situation of monitoring inductance 302, such as, monitoring flows through whether the electric current of inductance 302 is reduced to preset electricity Flow valuve.Controller 210 flows through the electric current of inductance 302 according to signal AUX and ISEN monitoring, and Switch 316 is controlled so that flow through the average of inductance 302 by pulse width modulating signal PWM1 Electric current is equal to target current value.So after electric capacity 324 filters, the output of power converter 206 Electric current IOUTIt is also equal to target current value.
Fig. 3 show the circuit diagram of Fig. 2 middle controller 210.Fig. 4 show in Fig. 3 control The oscillogram of device 210.Fig. 3 will be described in conjunction with Fig. 2 and Fig. 4.
In the example in figure 3, controller 210 comprises dimming unit 301, wave filter 303, error Amplifier 602, comparator 604, going sawtooth signal generator 606, reset signal generator 608 With pulse width modulating signal generator 610.Dimming unit 301 monitors on and off switch 1002 in Fig. 2 Action, by port CLK receive light modulation request signal and light modulation termination signal and produce light modulation letter Number SET, wherein, the set of light modulation request signal instruction on and off switch 1002, light modulation is eventually Second group of action of stop signal instruction on and off switch 1002, dim signal SET instruction flows through inductance The target current value of the average current of 302.First signal ISEN is filtered also by wave filter 303 Secondary signal IAVG indicating the average current flowing through inductance 302 is provided.In the example in figure 3, It is internal that wave filter 303 is integrated in controller 210, and in other examples, wave filter 303 is permissible It is positioned at the outside of controller 210.Error amplifier 602 is according to dim signal SET and secondary signal Voltage difference between IAVG produces error signal VEA, is made by the effect of error signal VEA Flow through the average current of inductance 302 equal to target current value.Going sawtooth signal generator 606 produces saw Tooth ripple signal SAW.Comparator 604 and error amplifier 602 and going sawtooth signal generator 606 Coupling, and error signal VEA is compared with sawtooth signal SAW.Reset signal produces Device 608 couples with port ZCD, and the signal AUX received according to port ZCD produces and resets Signal RESET, reset signal RESET acts on going sawtooth signal generator 606 and pulse width Degree modulated signal generator 610.So that switch 316 under the effect of reset signal RESET Connect.Signal AUX instruction flows through whether the electric current of inductance 302 is reduced to pre-set current value (such as It is reduced to 0).Pulse width modulating signal generator 610 produces with comparator 604 and reset signal Raw device 608 couples, and the output and reset signal RESET according to comparator 604 produces pulse width Degree modulated signal PWM1.Pulse width modulating signal PWM1 controls switch by port DRV The conducting state of 316.
When switching 316 connection, electric current flows through switch 316, resistance 218, inductance 302, light source Module 118 is to the ground of light source driving circuit 200.In one embodiment, when switching 316 connection, The voltage of signal AUX is negative value.When switch 316 disconnection, the voltage of signal AUX become on the occasion of. When switch 316 disconnection, electric current flows through resistance 218, inductance 302, light source module 118 and diode 314, the electric current flowing through inductance 302 is gradually reduced, when the electric current flowing through inductance 302 is reduced to preset Current value (is such as reduced to 0), and the voltage of signal AUX can produce a trailing edge.At signal AUX Under the effect of trailing edge, reset signal RESET of reset signal generator 608 output produces one Individual pulse.Under the effect of the pulse of reset signal RESET, pulse width modulating signal generator 610 generations have the pulse width modulating signal PWM1 of the first state (such as logic 1) to turn on Close 316.Under the effect of the pulse of reset signal RESET, going sawtooth signal generator 606 produces The voltage of raw sawtooth signal SAW starts to increase from initial value INI.When sawtooth signal SAW Voltage increase to the voltage of error signal VEA, pulse width modulating signal generator 610 produces There is the pulse width modulating signal PWM1 of the second state (such as logical zero) to disconnect switch 316, And the voltage of sawtooth signal SAW is reset to initial value INI.Until reset signal RESET Next pulse when arriving, the voltage of sawtooth signal SAW just starts again from initial value INI to increase Greatly.
In one embodiment, the dutycycle of pulse width modulating signal PWM1 is by error signal VEA determines.If the voltage that the voltage of secondary signal IAVG is less than dim signal SET, then miss Difference amplifier 602 increases the voltage of error signal VEA to increase pulse width modulating signal PWM1 Dutycycle so that the average current flowing through inductance 302 increases, until secondary signal IAVG Voltage increase to the voltage of dim signal SET.If the voltage of secondary signal IAVG is more than adjusting The voltage of optical signal SET, then error amplifier 602 reduces the voltage of error signal VEA to reduce The dutycycle of pulse width modulating signal PWM1, so that flow through the average current of inductance 302 Reduce, until the voltage of secondary signal IAVG is reduced to the voltage of dim signal SET.So, The average current flowing through inductance 302 can be adjusted to equal with target current value.
The oscillogram of the light source driving circuit 200 that Fig. 5 show in Fig. 2.Dimming unit in Fig. 3 The function of 301 will be described in conjunction with Fig. 5.Dimming unit 301 include trigger monitoring means 305, Timer 307 and D/A converter 311.In one embodiment, timer 307 includes enumerator 309.Trigger monitoring means 305 to terminate believing by port CLK reception light modulation request signal and light modulation Number, and enable signal EN and start according to light modulation request signal and light modulation termination signal generation or close Timer 307.Timer 307 timing under the control of described enable signal EN.D/A converter 311 produce dim signal SET to regulate power converter 206 for the output according to timer 307 Output electric current IOUT.The set of light modulation request signal instruction on and off switch 1002, light modulation Second group of action of termination signal instruction on and off switch 1002.Dimming unit 301 is at light modulation request letter Number the lower value adjusting dim signal SET continuously of effect, stop under the effect of light modulation termination signal Adjust the value of dim signal SET.In other words, if monitoring first group of on and off switch 1002 and moving Making, controller 210 adjusts the output electric current I of electric power converter 206 continuouslyOUT;If monitoring electricity Second group of action of source switch 1002, controller 210 stops adjusting the output of electric power converter 206 Electric current IOUT.In one embodiment, the set of on and off switch 1002 includes that first connects Logical action.In one embodiment, second group of action of on and off switch 1002 includes first disconnection Action and second ON Action thereafter.
Assume that initial time on and off switch 1002 disconnects.When on and off switch 1002 is connected by user, Power converter 206 is powered for light source module 118, and it exports electric current IOUTValue by D/A switch The initial value of the dim signal SET that device 311 produces determines.On the other hand, when on and off switch 1002 When being connected by user, trigger monitoring means 305 and receive light modulation request signal at port CLK. In one embodiment, trigger monitoring means 305 receive light modulation request signal show as at port CLK monitors voltage rising edge 1203 (shown in Fig. 5).In response to light modulation request signal, touch Send out monitoring means 305 and produce the enable signal EN with high level, thus start timer 307 and open Beginning timing.In the example in figure 3, the enumerator 309 in timer 307 is in the driving of clock signal Under start counting up, count value starts to progressively increase to N (N is the integer more than or equal to 1) from 0. In one embodiment, controller 210 is after receiving light modulation request signal, adjustment output electric current IOUTOutput electric current I is kept in a preset time period beforeOUTConstant, such as at enumerator 309 Count value reach time period T1 corresponding before N within, D/A converter 311 keeps light modulation letter Number SET is initial value, keeps output electric current IOUTConstant.In count value from the beginning of N, D/A turns The value being incremented by increase dim signal SET continuously of the corresponding count value of parallel operation 311.As a result of which it is, it is electric The output electric current I of force transducer 206OUTAnd the brightness of light source module 118 increases the most accordingly.
Once light source module 118 reaches desired brightness, and user is by executing on and off switch 1002 The brightness adjustment of light source module 118 is terminated with second group of action.Produce under the effect of second group of action Raw light modulation termination signal.In one embodiment, second group of action include first disconnection action and its After second ON Action.Trigger monitoring means 305 and receive light modulation termination letter at port CLK Number.In one embodiment, trigger monitoring means 305 receive light modulation termination signal show as end Mouth CLK monitors voltage trailing edge 1208 and voltage rising edge thereafter 1210.Terminate in light modulation Under the effect of signal, trigger monitoring means 305 generation and there is low level enable signal EN, thus Closing timer 307, enumerator 309 keeps its count value M now constant, D/A converter 311 also answer this to keep the value of dim signal SET constant.As a result of which it is, power converter 206 is defeated Go out electric current IOUTAnd the brightness of light source module 118 all stops change.
Therefore, within the count value of enumerator 309 is 0 to time period T1 corresponding for N-1, electricity The output electric current I of force transducer 206OUTKeep initial value constant.Count value from enumerator 309 Within time period T2 corresponding for N to M, the output electric current I of power converter 206OUTContinue Increasing, the brightness of light source module 118 the most persistently increases.After time period T2, in response to light modulation Termination signal, the output electric current I of power converter 206OUTAnd the brightness of light source module 118 all quilts Locking.In one embodiment, N is 1, a length of the 0 of time period T1, then controller 210 Begin to after receiving light modulation request signal adjust output electric current I continuouslyOUT
When on and off switch 1002 disconnect after a period of time in, controller 210 can by with port The capacitances to supply power of VDD coupling.In one embodiment, if the second of on and off switch 1002 group is moved The interval time between first disconnection action and second ON Action thereafter in work exceedes threshold Value, the count value of enumerator 309 will be reset as 0, the output electricity after second ON Action Stream IOUTInitial value will be recovered.
The circuit diagram of the current distribution unit 201 that Fig. 6 show in Fig. 2.Fig. 7 show figure The electric current I of the first light emitting diode chain LED1 in 2LED1With the second light emitting diode chain LED2's Electric current ILED2Electric current I is exported with power converter 206OUTBetween relation.Fig. 6 will be in conjunction with Fig. 7 It is described.
Current distribution unit 201 includes and light emitting diode chain LED1 and light emitting diode chain LED2 The control unit 641 that couple with monitoring means 645 of monitoring means 645 of coupling and with luminescence two The current adjustment unit 643 of pole pipe chain LED1 coupling.Monitoring means 645 provides instruction output electric current IOUTMonitoring signal.Control unit 641 is according to instruction output electric current IOUTMonitoring signal control Current adjustment unit 643, flows through the electric current I of light emitting diode chain LED1 with regulationLED1.At Fig. 2 With in the example of Fig. 6, monitoring means includes and light emitting diode chain LED1 and light emitting diode chain The resistance RT of LED2 coupling, instruction output electric current IOUTMonitoring signal VTIt is resistance RT two ends Voltage.Control unit 641 includes that operational amplifier 507, current adjustment unit 643 include and send out The second switch (such as transistor Q) of optical diode chain LED1 series connection.Operational amplifier 507 Anode receives reference signal VREF from reference signal generation unit 505, negative terminal by resistance RW with Resistance RT couples, and outfan couples with transistor Q.Operational amplifier 507 is by controlling crystal Pipe Q regulates the electric current I flowing through light emitting diode chain LED1LED1.Because flowing through light emitting diode The electric current I of chain LED2LED2For output electric current IOUTWith the electric current flowing through light emitting diode chain LED1 ILED1Difference, therefore regulation flows through the electric current I of light emitting diode chain LED1LED1Luminescence can be realized Diode chain LED1, the electric current distribution of LED2, thus correspondingly regulation flows through light emitting diode chain The electric current I of LED2LED2.In one embodiment, reference signal generation unit 505, operation amplifier Device 507 and transistor Q are integrated in chip 221.
If on and off switch 1002 is connected, the output electric current I of power converter 206OUTIt flow to light source Module 118, the initial voltage on port S that chip 221 is connected with resistance RW is less than reference signal Reference signal VREF that generation unit 505 produces, operational amplifier 507 makes transistor Q complete Full conducting.For ease of the electric current I of light emitting diode chain LED1 is describedLED1With light emitting diode chain The electric current I of LED2LED2With output electric current IOUTRelation, it is assumed that output electric current IOUTFrom the beginning of 0 It is gradually increased.In one embodiment, light source driving circuit 200 is configured such that light emitting diode chain The forward voltage drop of the LED1 forward voltage drop less than light emitting diode chain LED2.When light emitting diode chain The voltage at LED1 two ends reaches its forward voltage drop, and light emitting diode chain LED1 turns on, now luminous Diode chain LED2 does not turns on, and electric current flows through light emitting diode chain LED1, resistance RW and resistance RT is to ground.Flow through the electric current I of light emitting diode chain LED1LED1Along with output electric current IOUTIncrease And increase, the voltage V on port SSIncrease the most therewith.On the other hand, along with output electric current IOUT Increase, when the voltage at light emitting diode chain LED2 two ends reaches its forward voltage drop, light emitting diode chain LED2 is also switched on.As output electric current IOUTIncrease to IT1Time, the voltage V on port SSIncrease to Close to a value of the voltage of reference signal VREF, transistor Q enters amplification region, operation amplifier Device 507 starts to regulate linearly flow through the electricity of light emitting diode chain LED1 by controlling transistor Q Stream ILED1, so that the voltage of 507 two inputs of operational amplifier levels off to equal.
Therefore, under preferable state, when transistor Q works in linear model, on port S Voltage VSWith the relation of reference signal VREF it is
VS=VREF (1)
Wherein, VREFIt it is the magnitude of voltage of reference signal VREF.
Because flowing through total electric current of light emitting diode chain LED1 and light emitting diode chain LED2 (i.e. Output electric current IOUT) all flow through resistance RT to ground, the voltage V at resistance RT two endsTCan represent For
VT=IOUT×RT (2)
Wherein, RTIt it is the resistance of resistance RT.
Resistance RW connects with light emitting diode chain LED1, flows through light emitting diode chain LED1's Electric current ILED1Can be expressed as
I LED 1 = V S - V T R W = V REF - I OUT × R T R W - - - ( 3 )
Wherein, RWIt it is the resistance of resistance RW.
Flow through the electric current I of light emitting diode chain LED2LED2Can be expressed as
ILED2=IOUT-ILED1 (4)
Wherein, RWIt it is the resistance of resistance RW.
By equation (3) it can be seen that operational amplifier 507 is according to monitoring signal VTControl transistor Q flows through the electric current I of light emitting diode chain LED1 with regulationLED1.Can to (4) by equation (1) To find out, when transistor Q works in linear zone, if output electric current IOUTIncrease, ILED1By The least, and ILED2It is gradually increased.As output electric current IOUTIncrease to IT2Time, operational amplifier 507 make transistor Q close so that light emitting diode chain LED1 closes, and light emitting diode chain LED2 remains up.
Looking back Fig. 5, after on and off switch 1002 is connected, in the T2 time period, dimming unit 301 is defeated The value of the dim signal SET gone out increases over, so that output electric current IOUTIncrease over. If light emitting diode chain LED1 is warm light, light emitting diode chain LED2 is cold light, then T2 time Section inner light source module 118 overall brightness increase, its color from warm light to cold light gradually transition.
