Description

A kind of μ LED pixel drive circuit system and driving method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of driving circuit technical fields, and in particular to a kind of μ LED pixel drive circuit system and driving Method.
Background technique
LED drive power is the power adapter that power supply supply is converted to specific voltage and current to drive LED luminous. The most of constant current sources for that can change and change voltage with LED forward drop value of the output of LED drive power.Driving method There are two types of passages, one is a constant pressure source supplies multiple constant-current sources, each constant-current source individually gives every paths of LEDs to power.This combination Mode is flexible, when LED failure all the way, does not influence the work of other LED.
Driving method has constant current mode, type voltage regulation, pulsed drive etc..The electric current of constant-current drive circuit output is constant, and The DC voltage of output but changes with load the of different sizes of resistance value in a certain range, and load resistance value is small, and output voltage is just Low, load resistance value is big, and output voltage is just high;It is ideal that constant-current drive circuit, which drives LED,.Type voltage regulation driving, works as pressure stabilizing After parameters in circuit determine, when voltage of output, is fixed, and the electric current exported becomes with the increase and decrease of load Change.Pulsed drive, many LED applications require to dim with dimming function such as LED backlight or architectural lighting.By adjusting Dimming function may be implemented in the brightness and contrast of LED.Perhaps, the electric current for reducing device, which can shine to LED, to be adjusted, still Allowing LED to work lower than rated current will cause many adverse consequences, such as color difference problem.Replace simple electric current tune Whole method is integrated pulse width modulation (PWM) controller in LED driver.The signal of PWM is not used directly for control LED, But one switch of control, such as a MOSFET, thus electric current needed for being provided to LED.PWM controller is usually centainly being fixed It works in frequency, and pulsewidth is adjusted, to match required duty ratio.Current most of LED chips are all come using PWM It controls LED to shine, in order to ensure people will not feel significantly to flash, the frequency of pwm pulse has to be larger than 100HZ.PWM control Major advantage be it is more accurate by the light modulation electric current of PWM, farthest reduce LED shine when color difference.
Based on above-mentioned several driving methods, according to LED current and voltage feature, it is usually desirable to it is driven using constant current, It is avoided that the change of LED forward voltage and cause current variation, constant current keeps the brightness of LED more stable.
Furthermore it is more that LED drives IC gray scale to adjust type, including weight extinguishes method, weight lights method and synthesis etc..Power It is the gradation data 8 parallel delivery outlets that value, which lights method, programs serial transmission, lights LED etc. in turn.Fixed cycle, but It is that holding time is long.It is that clock is reduced to 23 clocks completions that weight, which extinguishes method, greatly reduces MCU single-chip microcontroller work load, But OE pulse will be gone strictly, if there is tasks interrupt, meeting stroboscopic, brightness is also very low.PWM technology includes phase voltage control PWM, pulsewidth PWM method, random PWM, SPWM method, line voltage control PWM etc..Wherein, pulsewidth PWM is that each pulse width is homogeneous Deng pulse be classified as PWM waveform, change spike train period with frequency modulation, can change pulse width or duty ratio can with pressure regulation, Voltage and frequency coordination can be made to change using suitable control method.It can reach by adjusting the duty ratio of PWM cycle, PWM Control the purpose of charging current.Software is generallyd use to control the electric current of PWM.
However, the current control accuracy of the above method is low, and brings nothing since the speed of software adjustment PWM is slow Method controls the problem of charging current, causes the LED switch time that can not effectively control.If using pure hardware controls, hardware Price is more expensive, and the display picture contrast frequently resulted in is undesirable.
Therefore, research how effectively control the LED switch time come improve show picture contrast be highly important.
