Description

LED driving circuit and control method
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of LED constant current control, in particular to an LED driving circuit and a control method.
Background
The LED is a semiconductor electronic component capable of emitting light, has advantages of high efficiency, long service life, energy saving, environmental protection, etc. compared with the conventional light source, and has been widely used in various illumination fields such as displays, indicator lamps, indoor life illumination, outdoor landscape illumination, etc.
Efficiency (Efficiency) is the ratio of the average power of the LEDs to the average power input to the power supply during a cycle, and low Efficiency increases the power supply losses.
The Power factor (Power factor) is a cosine value of a phase difference between an input voltage and an input current, and low Power factor increases loss of a Power grid.
In the LED linear driving circuit, in a normal use range, the power factor PF value of the system increases with an increase in the input voltage, but the efficiency decreases, and both cannot be satisfied.
As shown in FIG. 1, a conventional single-segment linear LED driving circuit is configured such that an AC voltage is converted into an input voltage V after passing through a rectifier bridgeINAnd supplies power to the LED lamp string which is composed of n single LEDs connected in series, and the total voltage is VLED=n*VLEDiIn which V isLEDiIs the voltage drop of a single LED, the value of which is determined by the application scheme. The input end of the LED lamp string is connected with the output end of the rectifier bridge, the output end of the LED lamp string is connected with the constant current control chip, and the constant current control chip controls the constant currentThe circuit module realizes constant current output.
FIG. 2 is a waveform diagram of the single-stage linear LED driving circuit, which is shown in FIG. 2, and is applied at different input voltages VINIn the period when the input voltage V isINGreater than the set voltage V of the lamp beadLEDIn time, the excessive voltage drop is applied to the control circuit IC, so that the temperature of the IC is increased, the power consumption is increased, and the IC is burnt out; when the input voltage VINLess than the set voltage V of the lamp beadLEDThen the LED string is not conducting and the LED is conducting for time t 1. The input voltage VINThe larger the amplitude of (c), the larger the power factor of the system, but conversely the input voltage VINThe larger the amplitude of (c), the lower the efficiency of the system.
In the LED driving circuit structure, one control circuit method for improving efficiency is to control the input current I, the control circuit diagram of which is shown in fig. 3, sample the voltage at the upper end of the resistor R, then input the voltage and the reference voltage Vref to the comparator, and the output is fed back to the voltage control circuit. The waveform of the input current I can be changed by the voltage control circuit when the input voltage V isINWhen the voltage is increased to be higher than the set voltage VLED of the lamp beads, the larger the voltage is, the smaller the current flowing through the LED lamp string is, so that the input power is maintained to be basically unchanged, and the efficiency of the system is improved. The operating waveform of the above-described drive circuit is shown in FIG. 4, and is applied to an input voltage VINWhen being higher than the total pressure drop of the LED lamp beads, the LED is conducted, otherwise, the LED is not conducted. However, this method has the disadvantage that the phase relationship between the input voltage and the input current is changed, so that the power factor is deteriorated and the power factor requirement cannot be met.
Therefore, it is one of the problems to be solved by those skilled in the art to provide an LED driving circuit with balanced efficiency and power factor and improved performance.

A current of I14 is then generated at R14 and mirrored to the output by a current mirror. When I14 is greater than Ibias1, the capacitor C starts to charge, the voltage across the capacitor C rises, and the drain voltage V2 is reduced by the current adjusting unit 30; when I14 is smaller than Ibias1, the capacitor C starts to discharge, the voltage across the capacitor C decreases, and the drain voltage V2 is increased by the current adjusting unit 30, so that the average voltage of the holding voltage V2 remains stable throughout the cycle.

when the detected voltage Vb is greater than the second preset threshold, the output time control signal S1 is at a high level, and the input end of the on-time control unit 20 collects the voltage detection unit 10The second detected voltage Vb2, the first output current I of the current adjusting unit 30INDecreases as the second detected voltage Vb2 increases;
with input voltage VINWhen the detected voltage Vb is smaller than the second preset threshold, the output time control signal S1 is low level zero, the input end of the on-time control unit 20 collects the third detected voltage Vb3 of the voltage detection unit 10, and the first output current I of the current adjustment unit 30INIncreases as the waveform of the third detection voltage Vb3 decreases;
with input voltage VINWhen the input voltage V continues to decreaseINWhen the voltage drop is less than the total voltage drop of the LED load, the constant current control unit 103 and the current regulation unit 30, the input loop is not conducted, and the first input current IINAt this time, the electric energy stored in the filter capacitor of the filter circuit 20 should ensure that the current on the LED load is continuous during discharging, that is, the LED load has no stroboflash, and the magnitude of the current I2 flowing through the LED load is controlled by the constant current control unit 103.
