In practical application, a data transmission protocol is established, and the controller sends data according to the requirements of the data protocol. The LED unit adopts the power supply module and the data decoding circuit, and can realize stable and reliable work of the two-line LED lamp control system.

As a specific embodiment of the display data register 342, fig. 13 is a schematic diagram illustrating the operation thereof.

The specific working processes of the data decoding circuit, the display control circuit and the driving control circuit according to the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with reference to fig. 15 to 18.
And taking VA as a data transmission line, defining one bit of data to start from a VA falling edge, return to a high level after a low level lasts for a certain time period, and end after the low level is kept for a certain time period, and determining data 1 and 0 according to the low level time period. For example, it is defined that one-bit data having a low level time length of 2us is 0 and one-bit data having a low level time length of 4us is 1. The data bits need to be sent continuously, and the VA keeps high level after all the data bits are sent. The VA high duration is defined to exceed a fixed length as a reset code, for example, the VA high duration is defined to be 100us as a reset code, and the reset code validates the received data. The VA transmit data waveform is shown in fig. 15.
According to the actual function of the product, it is determined how many bits of data need to be transmitted in total, for example, in this embodiment, since 3-way LED output needs to be controlled, and each way LED needs 8 bits of data to control its output gray scale, 24 bits of data are needed in total. After all data transmission is finished, the VA is kept at a high level. When VA is continuously high for more than 100us, it generates a reset code and validates the received data.
The data decoding from VA is done by a data decoding circuit, which as shown in fig. 7, includes an edge detection circuit, an oscillator, a counter, a comparator and a shift register. Data decoding is the process of obtaining the required data from the VA and storing the data for later use, as defined by the data protocol. Depending on the definition of the data protocol, whether a data bit is a 1 or a 0 can be determined by determining the VA low time length. And each determined bit of data is stored in a shift register to complete the data decoding task. There are many ways to realize, the utility model discloses a data decoding circuit is one of them scheme, not the only scheme.
The specific decoding process is as follows: the edge detection circuit detects the change condition of the VA signal in real time, and respectively generates pulse signals SF and SR for standby at the falling edge and the rising edge of VA, and the timing waveforms of the pulse signals are shown in FIG. 16; the SF-triggered oscillator 322 operates and outputs a precision clock signal CK with a CK period of 150 ns. At the same time, the counter 323 counts from 0 by using the signal CK as a clock under the action of SF, and the result DQ is output to the positive input terminal of the digital comparator 324. The negative input of the comparator 324 terminates with the data DK, the value of which is directly designed to be 20. SR is responsible for storing the result DY of the comparator as data in the shift register 325. As is apparent from the above description, when the low level length of one bit data exceeds 3us, it is decided as 1, and less than 3us is decided as 0, and it is stored in the shift register at the time of the VA rising edge. The controller can send 24-bit data, the data are divided into 3 groups, and each group of 8-bit data is used for controlling one path of LED lamp. Here, the shift register is designed to be 24 bits, and 24 bits of data are sequentially stored therein in the decoding process. After the 24-bit data transmission is finished, VA is kept high until new data is transmitted next time.
The above is a data protocol and corresponding decoding process that transmits data at a fixed rate. A data protocol with adaptive data transmission rate may also be defined, and the corresponding data decoding circuit may be modified slightly based on the above decoding circuit, and a control scheme for rate-adaptive transmission is described below.
The rate adaptive data protocol is substantially the same as the fixed rate data protocol except that a reference bit Mbit is sent before the data is sent and then all data is sent in sequence. A schematic diagram of a rate adaptive data transmission protocol waveform is shown in fig. 17. The term rate adaptation means that the length of the data bits does not need to be fixed, but only needs to be in a certain proportional relationship with the reference bits Mbit. For example, the low level length of data 0 is defined as 2 × T, the low level length of data 1 is defined as 4 × T, and the low level length of reference bit Mbit is defined as 3K × T. Where T is a unit of time length and K is an integer. When the method is used, the controller can send the reference bit and the data bit according to the proportion relation according to actual requirements without fixing the length of the data bit, and the adaptability and the use flexibility of the product are greatly improved by adopting the scheme.
For the rate adaptive data transmission protocol, the data decoding circuit is shown in fig. 8 and includes an edge detection circuit 331, an oscillator 332, a counter 333, a comparator 334, a shift register 335, and a reference bit processing circuit 336. The decoding process of a frame of data is as follows: firstly, a reference bit processing circuit calculates the length of a low level of a reference bit under the coordination of an edge detection circuit and an oscillator, and after the rising edge of the reference bit, a result DK obtained by dividing the value by K is used as the data of a negative input end of a comparator. And then decoding each bit of data, specifically, calculating the length of the low level of each bit of data, locking the length of the low level of each bit of data into DQ on the rising edge of each bit of data, and accessing the length value DQ to the positive input end of the comparator. The result DY of the comparator is the value of the current bit of data obtained by decoding, and each bit of data is sequentially stored in the shift register at the rising edge of the data and completed by the SR signal. The above is the decoding process of the rate adaptive data transmission protocol.
After the data decoding circuit decodes the data from the VA, the data is provided to the display control circuit for use. The operation of the display control circuit is described below.
The display control circuit is responsible for acquiring data from the decoding circuit and controlling the on-off state of the 3-way LED lamp through the data. The display control circuit includes a reset code detection circuit 341, a display data register 342, and a switch control 343, as shown in fig. 11. The reset code detection circuit generates a reset signal FR when detecting that VA lasts for more than 100us, and the FR loads data DN [23:0] in the data decoding circuit into the display data register. The switch control circuit generates a switch control signal of the LED according to the display data. The driving circuit is responsible for turning on and off the LED lamp and specific current magnitude when the LED lamp is turned on.
