2. Description of the Related Art A large number of LEDs are used as a light source by utilizing the features of high brightness LEDs such as small size / long life / low power consumption.
As the power source, there is an LED lamp for an AC power supply using a general household AC power supply. The LED serving as a light source is a semiconductor, and must be driven by a direct current of a rated current value or less. Therefore, when the LED collective lamp is lit by a home AC power supply, some kind of current limiting means is required to prevent a current exceeding the rating from flowing through each LED.

As the current limiting means, L
When the number of EDs is increased, the current flowing through the LED becomes maximum at the peak in the AC voltage waveform. Maximum current is L
What flows to the ED is only a small part in the cycle of the AC power supply. Therefore, the emission luminance of the LED is low in most of the entire cycle. Also, at low voltage, L
Since almost no current flows through the ED, the ED is not turned on, and flicker occurs due to the cycle of the AC power supply. Therefore, LE
D-collection lamps are dark and flickering lighting fixtures.

In the current limiting means using a voltage drop resistor, a large current flows through this resistor. Therefore, the characteristics of the LED, that is, low power consumption, cannot be utilized, and the resistor generates heat, which causes various problems in mounting. If measures for heat dissipation are taken to avoid this, it is difficult to reduce the size of the lamp. It also increases costs. Indeed, if the voltage is lowered by a capacitor, the heat generation is smaller and smaller than the resistance. However, since a large-capacity capacitor is required, an increase in the size of the lamp is inevitable.

Even when a constant current control circuit is used, there are many problems. An example is shown in FIG. 4A and 4B are characteristic diagrams showing the relationship between the power supply voltage and the light emission drive current as a difference depending on the number of LEDs connected in series. A is a case where the number of LEDs connected in series is small, the voltage that can be applied is low, and constant current control is performed in most parts of the AC power supply cycle. Therefore, the power loss during the constant current control is large, and most of the power is converted to heat. Therefore, the same problem as when a high-voltage resistor is used occurs. Also, B
As shown in (1), when the number of LEDs is large, the constant current control is performed in the high voltage section, so that the power loss is small. However, for much of the cycle, less than the rated current flows through the LED. Therefore, the lighting is dark and flickering.

3, R4 generates a potential at the voltage dividing point b in accordance with the full-wave rectified power supply voltage. The n-channel field effect transistor Q4 of the switching drive circuit is turned on when the potential at the voltage dividing point b is lower than a predetermined value. As a result, the source potential of the transistor Q4 (gate potential of Q3) becomes almost 0 V, and the transistor Q3 is turned on. When the power supply voltage increases in accordance with the cycle and the potential at the voltage dividing point b exceeds a predetermined value, the transistor Q4 is turned off. At this time, since the resistance value is set so that the potential of the voltage dividing point c by the voltage dividing resistors R5 and R6 is sufficiently larger than the predetermined value, the transistor Q3 is turned off instantaneously.
