Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of square-wave voltage driving method that is applied to lamp body, the driving voltage that is particularly related to a kind of plane lamp sheet utilizes square-wave voltage or multistage ladder type square-wave voltage replaces the traditional strings wave voltage, the trigger voltage of the rising of this square-wave voltage or multistage ladder type square-wave voltage and decline leading edge is promoted to a modulating voltage, and drive current is a pulsed electric current, resulting from square-wave voltage rises and the decline leading edge, can effectively break through the dielectric layer energy barrier, to promote the square-wave voltage driving method of luminous efficiency, reduction plane lamp sheet working temperature.
Background technology
LCD is subject to liquid crystal can't be luminous voluntarily, so must adopt backlight (Backlight) to come as its luminous source, the present backlight that adopts mostly is many cathode fluorescent tubes greatly and forms, form a backlight module, for the line source that many fluorescent tubes are formed becomes a planar light source, backlight module must adopt thicker diffusion sheet, so that make line source can become planar light source uniformly, but the use of this diffusion sheet will make backlight module the problem that integral thickness increases and temperature rises occur.Have again, backlight module uses for a long time with high brightness, make the temperature of fluorescent tube remain on high temperature, to cause the light output of fluorescent tube to produce the phenomenon of quickening decay, more serious problem is the rate of decay difference of each fluorescent tube of multi-light tube backlight module, use for a long time, will form the uneven big problem of LCD brightness.Institute thinks and addresses this problem, and has researched and developed a kind of cold-cathode plane lamp and has done Backlight For Liquid Crystal Display Panels.
Please refer to Fig. 1, oscillogram for the driving voltage and the drive current of known cold-cathode plane lamp, wherein this driving voltage 11 and drive current 12 all come as its drive waveforms with the string ripple, but this drive waveforms can form great circulating current (Circulating Current), (not shown) when flowing through drive circuit and plane lamp sheet, to cause meaningless power loss, its shortcoming haves much room for improvement for luminous efficiency that reduces plane lamp sheet and the phenomenon that causes the backlight module heating.
Please refer to Fig. 2, oscillogram for the driving voltage and the drive current of another known cold-cathode plane lamp, its driving voltage 21 adopts unipolar pulse voltage system to drive, drive current 22 then is less pulse current, adopt single voltage to drive and will form the output of single direction light, the type of drive of this unipolar pulse voltage has following shortcoming:
(1) employed type of drive is the pulse voltage of fixed single polarity, increase along with the operating time, the free positive and negative ion that is produced of the inert gas molecule that lamp sheet inside, plane is filled can depend on, be deposited near the electrode, form electrolytic effect and accumulation wall electric charge (Wall Charge) effect, after two kinds of above-mentioned effects form, after must raising, driving voltage just can overcome this dielectric layer energy barrier, so just cause the problem that luminous efficiency reduces and plane lamp sheet temperature raises, but also produced the electric arc problem of unstable.
(2) problem supervened of above-mentioned dielectric layer energy barrier is the problem (driving voltage is usually greater than 2kV) that driving voltage need raise, thing followed problem is electromagnetic interference (ElectromagneticInterference, EMI) effect also increases, so this backlight module is difficult for by the associated electrical magnetic tester as EMI/EMC such as CE, FCC when operation.
Please refer to Fig. 3, be the oscillogram of the drive current of another known cold-cathode plane lamp, its drive current utilizes triple-frequency harmonics 32 injection modes (3
RdHarmonic Injection Method) mixes once main ripple 31 (sine wave), form a kind of synthetic waveform 33 near trapezoidal wave, this drive current has the shortcoming of systemic circulation electric current in the time of can improving the driving of string ripple, can reduce the working temperature of plane lamp sheet and then improve luminous efficiency, but still there is following shortcoming in this drive current:
(1) transformer that provided in the circuit is needed in addition control accurately, especially its leakage inductance and the formed resonance frequency of resonant capacitance that adds must accurately be three times a switching frequency, otherwise can't form this trapezoidal wave waveform.
Therefore (2) the formed synthetic trapezoidal wave waveform in the high-pressure side of its transformer will form transformer additional cycles electric current, so still have the problem of meaningless power loss, also must promote the driving voltage power of covering the loss, and the while electromagnetic interference effect is generation thereupon also.
All there is shortcoming in above-mentioned three kinds of known technologies, and the present invention is different from the type of drive of the sine wave of traditional cathode fluorescent tube and outer electrode cathode fluorescent tube, can improve the plane lamp sheet luminous efficiency of outer electrode mode.
