  • the series circuit magnetizes in the on state of the switch S1, an inductor L1 by means of the Switch S1 flowing current.
  • the energy stored in the coil L1 discharges in the form of a falling current i through the light-emitting diode path LED (the coil L1 is demagnetized). This results in a current profile in which rising cycles and declining cycles alternate with the periodicity of the switch control. Decisive for the light output is the temporally averaged current.
  • the triangular current through the light-emitting diode path can be smoothed by a filter capacitor C1.
  • a control and / or regulating circuit SR which sets the clocking of the switch S1, for example in the form of PWM-modulated signals as a manipulated variable of the control of the LED power.
  • the feedback signal to which is regulated (and which, for example, is compared with a target value) at least the current flowing through the LED path L is measured. This LED current can be measured at any point in the LED current path.

  • the light-emitting diode path has one or more parallel, but preferably in series LEDs and / or OLEDs.

  • the transistors in the embodiment of FIG Figure 4 to field effect transistors (FETs), in particular MOSFETs.
  • FETs field effect transistors
  • the current mirror can also be any other embodiment known from the prior art.
  • the actual measurement of the LED voltage takes place through the secondary side P2 of the current mirror S. Due to the current mirror function, the identical current flows on the secondary side as on the primary side of the current mirror S and thus through a secondary-side measuring resistor R2. The voltage Umess at this resistor R2 thus reflects the LED voltage Uled again.
  • the resistor R1 on the primary side P1 serves to dimension the measuring voltage Umess picked up at the resistor R2.
  • the measured voltage Umess is thus proportional to the voltage Uled, wherein the factor between the two voltages can be adjusted by the size of the resistors R1 and R2.

  • the measurement of the LED voltage can be used for the determination of the LED current or the LED temperature, so it can be done an indirect detection of the LED current or the LED temperature. It can be concluded by means of value tables or stored characteristics or formulas with the aid of the measured LED voltage on the LED current or the LED temperature.
  • the charge i. the voltage across the capacitor C1 parallel to the LED discharged via the resistor R1 of the primary side P1 of the current mirror S.
  • the voltage across the LED goes to zero.
  • the power loss in standby mode goes to zero stationary.
  • the light-emitting diode path L is no longer connected to ground via a measuring circuit on the cathode side, the problem of unwanted glaring of the LEDs is also reduced.
  • Another advantage is that when the LED is removed from the circuit, the voltage across the capacitor C1 is discharged through the resistor R1 on the primary side P1 of the current mirror. When the LED is then reinserted, the voltage of the charged capacitor C1 does not drop off directly, but rather a voltage across the LED will be applied again when it is switched on again.
  • the problem is that when re-inserting the cathode-side potential is pulled to zero due to the measuring channel, while the anode side, the supply voltage of, for example, 400 volts applied, thus resolved.
  • a so-called 'hot-swapping' which corresponds to the removal and re-insertion of an LED during operation, there is the risk that the LED will be destroyed becomes significantly smaller than in the prior art.
  • the 'hot-swapping' is electrically synonymous with an interrupt error, ie that the LED link is interrupted and then again supply voltage.
  • the voltage measuring circuit counteracts this risk in the case of 'hot-swapping', since the voltage across the capacitor C1 is discharged through the resistor R1 on the primary side P1 of the current mirror.
  • the two transistors T1 and T2 of the current mirror should have identical electrical properties, the two transistors are preferably integrated in one component.
  • a method for measuring voltage for a light-emitting diode path L with at least one light-emitting diode LED is possible, wherein the light-emitting diode is supplied with a DC voltage.
  • the primary side P1 of a current mirror S is connected.
  • a measuring voltage UMESS proportional to the voltage drop ULED across the light-emitting diode path L is tapped on a measuring resistor R2.
  • the current mirror measurement can be used to measure a DC current in a measuring branch P2 which is not connected in series with the light-emitting diode path. There is also no difference measurement (bus voltage minus cathode voltage) instead, but a direct measurement of the voltage across the LED track.
  • a measurement of the light-emitting diode path voltage is performed by means of a measuring resistor, which is not connected in series with the light-emitting diode path. But it is also no measurement of the LED current by means of a measuring resistor, which is connected in series with the light-emitting diode path, necessary by the voltage measuring circuit according to the invention.
