Below in conjunction with Fig. 3 principle of the present utility model is elaborated.

In the present embodiment, the minimum Vds(of described PMOS field effect transistor P1 drain electrode and source voltage are poor) withstand voltage be a LED lamp string 12111 when lighting both end voltage poor.LED in a described LED lamp string 12111 describes as the HV high-voltage LED as example, the LED series connection that described HV LED is 1W by 6 power generally consists of, its pressure drop is 18V so, minimum Vsb and Vdb also are 18V, minimum Vb_sub(substrate terminal Bulk is to the voltage of substrate Substrate) be 311V, in the technique of reality, desirable larger threshold value, based on present semiconductor technology, this metal-oxide-semiconductor can be integrated at chip internal, it is integrated to be that drive circuit can further carry out, thereby the space of having reduced circuit layout and having taken, so that described LED drive unit can be done is less, and then so that finished product can be done is less, greatly facilitate people's use.

Among the utility model embodiment, the circuit of described the first N-type driver module 141, the second N-type driver module 142, the 3rd N-type driver module 143 and the 4th N-type driver module 144 is also identical.Described the first resistance R 1, the second resistance R 2, the 3rd resistance R 3 and the 4th resistance R 4 are sampling resistor.Described the first comparator Q1, the 3rd comparator Q3, the 5th comparator Q5 and the 7th comparator Q7 are used for over-current detection, and the voltage on the sampling resistor and its first reference voltage V ref_h are compared.Describe as an example of the first comparator Q1 example, when the electric current of the first resistance R 1 surpasses in advance set point, namely the voltage of sampling resistor is higher than the first reference voltage V ref_h, the output output high level of described the first comparator Q1, otherwise output low level then.Described the second comparator Q2, the 4th comparator Q4, the 6th comparator Q6 and the 8th comparator Q8 are used for undercurrent and detect, and the voltage on the sampling resistor and the second reference voltage V ref_l are compared.Take the second comparator Q2 as example, when the electric current of the second resistance R 2 was lower than set point, then the output of the second comparator Q2 was exported high level, otherwise output low level.Described logic controller 150 is by the output signal of comparator, i.e. the Output rusults of over-current detection and undercurrent detection is controlled the grid level state of each NMOS field effect transistor, thereby realized controlling the light on and off of each LED lamp group.

The LED drive unit that adopts the utility model to provide, behind electrification reset, the G1 of described logic controller 150 ~ G4 end is high level, and PG1 end and PG2 end also are high level, the one NMOS field effect transistor to the four NMOS field effect transistor are in opening, and a PMOS field effect transistor P1 and the 2nd PMOS field effect transistor P2 are in off state.

When the phase place of the input signal that exchanges input was in 0 ° ~ 90 ° or 180 ° ~ 270 °, the output voltage of rectifier bridge 110 was increased to the highest since 0.

The concrete principle process of described efficient LED drive unit is as follows: when the output voltage of rectifier bridge 110 hanged down, a LED lamp group 1221 was lighted, and electric current flows into the NMOS field effect transistor M1 from a LED lamp group 1221.Rising along with the output voltage of rectifier bridge 110, electric current in the one LED lamp group 1221 increases gradually, the sampling resistor that the source electrode of the one NMOS field effect transistor M1 connects the i.e. voltage of the first resistance R 1 raises gradually, after the first comparator Q1 compared sampled voltage and the first reference voltage V ref_h, the output high level was that the OV_H_1 end of logic controller 150 is high level.Then described logic controller 150 is set to low level for high level with the PG1 end according to the OV_H_1 end that detects, so that a PMOS field effect transistor P1 is in off state, thereby so that a LED lamp string 1211 places in circuit are lighted is luminous, the LED that lights this moment so comprises a LED lamp string 1211 and a LED lamp group 1221.Along with voltage continues to raise, the electric current that flows through in the long string 120 of LED lamp continues to increase, when the OV_H_1 of logic controller 150 end is high level again, the PG2 end is set to low level, so that the 2nd PMOS field effect transistor P2 is in off state, thereby so that the 2nd LED lamp string 1212 is lighted is luminous, the LED that lights this moment so comprises a LED lamp string 1211, the 2nd LED lamp string 1212 and a LED lamp group 1221.

Along with voltage continues to raise again, when the OV_H_1 end of logic controller 150 is high level, described logic controller 150 is set to low level with the G1 end, PG1 end and PG2 held be set to high level, then a LED lamp group 1221 and the 2nd LED lamp group 1222 are in the state of lighting and a LED lamp string 1211 and the 2nd LED lamp string 1212 are in the attitude of going out.Along with voltage raises, electric current in the one LED lamp group 1221 and the 2nd LED lamp group 1222 increases gradually, when the sampling resistor of the source electrode of the 2nd NMOS field effect transistor M2 when namely the voltage on the second resistance R 2 surpasses the first reference voltage vref_h, the OV_H_2 end of logic controller 150 is high level.Logic controller 150 is set to low level with the PG1 end, then lights a LED lamp string 1211, and this moment is because the dividing potential drop effect of a LED lamp string 1211 makes the OV_H_2 end of logic controller 150 become low level.Along with voltage continues to raise, when the OV_H_2 end became high level again, logic controller 150 was set to low level with the PG2 end, thereby lights the 2nd LED lamp string 1212, and this moment, the OV_H_2 end of logic controller 150 became low level again.The LED that light this moment comprises a LED lamp string 1211, the 2nd LED lamp string 1212, a LED lamp group 1221 and the 2nd LED lamp group 1222.Along with voltage continues to raise, when the OV_H_2 end becomes high level for the third time, logic controller 150 is set to low level with the G2 end, PG1 end and PG2 end are set to high level, then a LED lamp group 1221, the 2nd LED lamp group 1222 and the 3rd LED lamp group 1223 are in the state of lighting, and a LED lamp string 1211 and the 2nd LED lamp string 1212 are in the attitude of going out.By that analogy, light successively remaining LED lamp group.

When the phase place of the input signal that exchanges input was in 90 ° ~ 180 ° or 270 ° ~ 360 °, within such time period, the output voltage of rectifier bridge 110 was down to 0 from ceiling voltage.

When the output voltage of rectifier bridge 110 reaches certain voltage value, such as the long string 120 of LED lamp is all lighted after reaching higher voltage value, and electric current is from long string 120 inflows of LED lamp the 4th N-type driver module 144.Reduction along with rectifier bridge 110 output voltages, output current reduces gradually, the sampling resistor of the source electrode of the 4th NMOS field effect transistor M4 is that the voltage on the 4th resistance R 4 also reduces gradually, when sampled voltage during less than the second reference voltage V ref_l of the 7th comparator Q7, the OV_L_4 end of described logic controller 150 is low level, logic control 150 is low level according to the OV_L_4 end, and G4 held, PG1 end and PG2 end are set to low level, then the 4th LED lamp group 1224 is in the attitude of going out, a LED lamp string 1211, the 2nd LED lamp string 1212, the one LED lamp group 1221, the 2nd LED lamp group 1222 and the 3rd LED lamp group 1223 are in bright attitude.Reduce owing to be in the LED quantity of bright attitude, the OV_L_4 end of logic controller 150 becomes high level.When voltage reduced again, the OV_L_4 end was low level, and described logic controller 150 is set to high level with the PG1 end, so that a LED lamp string 1211 is in the attitude of going out, the OV_L_4 end returns to high level simultaneously.When voltage continues to reduce, the OV_L_4 end is output as low level, described logic controller 150 is set to high level with the PG2 end, so that the 2nd LED lamp string 1212 is in the attitude of going out, OV_L_4 returns to high level simultaneously, and a LED lamp group 1221, the 2nd LED lamp group 1222 and the 3rd LED lamp group 1223 are in bright attitude at this moment.When voltage then descends, the OV_L_4 end is low level, logic controller 150 is set to low level with the G3 end, PG1 end and PG2 end are set to low level, then the 3rd LED lamp group 1223 and the 4th LED lamp group 1224 are in the attitude of going out, and a LED lamp string 1211, the 2nd LED lamp string 1212, a LED lamp group 1221 and the 2nd LED lamp group 1222 are in bright attitude.By that analogy, knock out successively remaining LED lamp.

When concrete the application, the current value of the inverting input of the comparator that will link to each other with the first reference voltage V ref_h is set as 10mA, and the current value of the inverting input of the comparator that is connected with the second reference voltage V ref_l is set as 50mA.NMOS field effect transistor in the N-type driver module and sampling resistor consist of current source circuit, use in the design concrete, and the maximum current that current source circuit is set is 60mA, is higher than the overcurrent 50mA that the first reference voltage V ref-_h sets.

When a current LED lamp group 1221 is in illuminating state, and voltage is when being in the time period of rising, and the electric current in the LED lamp group 1221 increases gradually, and the voltage of the first resistance R 1 upper end also increases.When the voltage of the first resistance R 1 upper end was higher than the first reference voltage V ref_h, then the electric current in the LED lamp group 1221 was greater than 50mA.The voltage of the drain electrode of the one NMOS field effect transistor M1 will be very low owing to the characteristic of constant-current source this moment, and close to the voltage of the first resistance R 1 upper end, then a LED lamp string 1211 is lighted.At this moment, have a LED lamp string 1211 and a LED lamp group 1221 is in the state of lighting.Because the quantity of the LED of place in circuit increases suddenly, so the electric current that flows through in the long string 120 of LED lamp reduces, by controlling the quantity of a LED lamp string 1211 and the 2nd LED lamp string 1212, can guarantee that quantity that LED increases is no more than certain ratio upper limit with respect to the quantity of the LED that is in bright attitude, thereby the brightness that guarantees the long string 120 of LED lamp is unlikely excessively low, for example selectable ratio on be limited to 1/3 or 1/4 etc.In like manner, guaranteed that also quantity that LED reduces is no more than certain ratio upper limit with respect to the quantity of the LED that is in bright attitude, thereby the brightness unlikely variation that has guaranteed the long string 120 of LED lamp is too fast, brightens suddenly.

And, the efficient LED drive unit that adopts the utility model to provide, along with the rising of voltage, the electric current in the LED lamp string increases, and the voltage of sampling resistor upper end raises.But because the electric current in the LED lamp string is all the time less than the electric current 60mA of the maximum of current source, so the voltage of the drain electrode of a NMOS field effect transistor M1 to the six NMOS field effect transistor M6 is all the time near the voltage of sampling resistor upper end.Sampling resistor is taken as 30ohm in the design, then in the driving process power consumption of driver module less than 30ohm*50mA*50mA=75mW.Adopt simultaneously such scheme, voltage from minimum to the highest, be up to minimum process, by rational control, can guarantee the power consumption of driver module near 75mW, thereby greatly improve the efficient of drive unit.

When voltage amplitude is in reduction during the stage, for example when a LED lamp string, the 2nd LED lamp string, a LED lamp group, the 2nd LED lamp group, the 3rd LED lamp group and the 4th LED lamp group all are in illuminating state; Along with output voltage reduces, the 2nd P type switch module is controlled the 2nd LED lamp string and is extinguished, along with output voltage continues to reduce, a P type switch module is controlled a LED lamp string and is extinguished, and a LED lamp group, the 2nd LED lamp group, the 3rd LED lamp group and the 4th LED lamp group all are in illuminating state at this moment; Along with voltage continues to reduce, the 4th N-type driver module is controlled the 4th LED lamp group and is extinguished, and a LED lamp string and the 2nd LED lamp string are in illuminating state; Along with voltage continues to reduce, the 2nd P type switch module is controlled the 2nd LED lamp string and is extinguished; Along with output voltage continues to reduce, a P type switch module is controlled a LED lamp string and is extinguished, and a LED lamp group, the 2nd LED lamp group and the 3rd LED lamp group are in illuminating state at this moment; All extinguish to LED lamp string and LED lamp group by that analogy.
