도 1은 일반적인 백라이트의 인버터 및 인버터 제어기의 구성도로서, 도1을 참조하면, 일반적인 백라이트의 인버터 및 인버터 제어기는 전압단자(VCC)로 동작전압을 제공받고, 출력단자(AOUT,BOUT)로 보상구동신호를 출력하고, 반전입력단자(INV)를 통해 입력되는 트랜스의 2차측전압에 따라 출력단자(COUT)로 PWM신호를 출력하여 트랜스로 공급되는 전압을 제어하는 인버터 제어기(10)와, 이 인버터 제어기(10)의 보상구동신호에 따라 보상적으로 스위칭동작을 수행하여 직류전원을 교류전원으로 변환하여 트랜스의 1차측에 제공하는 인버터(20)와, 이 인버터(20)의 동작에 따른 1차측의 교류전원으로 2차측으로 승압 전달하는 트랜스(30)와, 이 트랜스(30)의 교류전원에 의해서 점등/소등동작을 수행하는 백라이트(40)와, 이 백라이트(40)의 밝기를 제어하는 밝기조절회로부(50)로 이루어져 있다.1 is a configuration diagram of an inverter and an inverter controller of a general backlight. Referring to FIG. 1, an inverter and an inverter controller of a general backlight are provided with operating voltages through a voltage terminal VCC and compensated by output terminals AOUT and BOUT. An inverter controller 10 which outputs a driving signal and outputs a PWM signal to the output terminal COUT according to the secondary side voltage of the transformer input through the inverting input terminal INV to control the voltage supplied to the transformer; Inverter 20 which performs a compensatory switching operation according to the compensation drive signal of inverter controller 10 and converts DC power into AC power to provide to the primary side of the transformer, and 1 according to the operation of the inverter 20. A transformer 30 that boosts and transfers the voltage to the secondary side by the AC power source of the vehicle side, a backlight 40 which performs lighting / lighting operation by the AC power source of the transformer 30, and controls the brightness of the backlight 40. Brightness control It consists robu 50.

이와같이 이루어진 인버터 및 인버터 제어기에 있어서, 상기 인버터 제어기(10)는 밝기조절회로부(50)로부터 전압을 피드백받아 피드백전압이 기준전압이하인 오픈램프를 감지하는 오픈램프검출부를 포함하고 있다.In the inverter and the inverter controller configured as described above, the inverter controller 10 includes an open lamp detection unit that receives a voltage from the brightness control circuit unit 50 and detects an open lamp whose feedback voltage is lower than the reference voltage.

도 2는 종래 인버터제어기의 오픈램프검출부 및 주변회로도로서, 도2를 참조하면, 종래 인버터 제어기(10)의 오픈램프검출부(14)는 비반전 입력단자로 피드백전압을 입력받고 반전 입력단자로 기준전압(+1.0V)을 입력받아 비교하는 제2비교기(14a)와, 비반전 입력단자로 기준전압(+3.7V)을 입력받고 반전 입력단자로 전류원(11)에 의해 전압을 충전하는 커패시터(Css)의 전압을 입력받아 비교하는 제3 비교기(14b)와, 이 제2비교기(14a)의 출력과 제3 비교기(14b)의 출력을 논리합하는 오아게이트(14c)를 포함하고 있다. 그리고 오픈램프검출부(14)의 주변에는 반전입력단자(INV)를 통한 피드백전압과 기준전압(+1.5V)을 비교하는 제1 비교기(12)와, 이 제1비교기(12)의 출력에 따라 PWM신호를 출력단자(COUT)측으로 재공하는 PWM신호발생부(13)가 구성되어 있다.2 is an open lamp detection unit and a peripheral circuit diagram of a conventional inverter controller. Referring to FIG. 2, the open lamp detection unit 14 of the conventional inverter controller 10 receives a feedback voltage as a non-inverting input terminal and is referred to as an inverting input terminal. A second comparator 14a that receives and compares a voltage (+ 1.0V), and a capacitor that receives a reference voltage (+ 3.7V) as a non-inverting input terminal and charges the voltage by the current source 11 as an inverting input terminal ( And a third comparator 14b for receiving and comparing the voltage of Css), and an oragate 14c for ORing the output of the second comparator 14a and the output of the third comparator 14b. In the vicinity of the open lamp detection unit 14, a first comparator 12 comparing the feedback voltage through the inverting input terminal INV and the reference voltage (+ 1.5V) and the output of the first comparator 12 The PWM signal generator 13 for providing the PWM signal to the output terminal COUT side is configured.

만약, 피드백전압이 제1기준전압(1.5V)보다 낮으면 제1 비교기(12)는 '하이'레벨을, 피드백전압이 제1기준전압(1.5V)보다 높으면 제1 비교기(12)는 '로우'레벨을 출력하고, 이때 PWM신호발생부(13)는 제1 비교기(12)의 출력이 '하이'레벨, 즉 피드백전압이 기준전압인 1.5V보다 낮으면 PWM신호의 듀티비를 높여 트랜스(30)의 2차측 전압을 높이고, 반대로 제1 비교기(12)의 출력이 '로우'레벨, 즉 피드백전압이 기준전압인 1.5V보다 높으면 PWM신호의 듀티비를 낮추어 트랜스(30)의 2차측 전압을 낮추기 위한 방향으로 동작하여 트랜스(30)의 2차측전압을 향상 일정한 전압으로 유지시키도록 동작한다.If the feedback voltage is lower than the first reference voltage (1.5V), the first comparator 12 has a 'high' level. If the feedback voltage is higher than the first reference voltage (1.5V), the first comparator 12 is' Low 'level, and the PWM signal generator 13 increases the duty ratio of the PWM signal when the output of the first comparator 12 is lower than the' high 'level, that is, the feedback voltage is lower than the reference voltage of 1.5V. If the secondary side voltage of 30 is increased and the output of the first comparator 12 is 'low' level, that is, the feedback voltage is higher than the reference voltage of 1.5V, the duty ratio of the PWM signal is lowered to reduce the secondary side of the transformer 30. It operates in a direction for lowering the voltage to maintain the secondary voltage of the transformer 30 at an improved constant voltage.

그리고, 상기 오픈램프검출부(14)는 오픈램프를 계속적으로 검출하는데, 만약 오픈램프상태가 되면, 피드백되는 전압은 0V가 되므로, 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제2 비교기(14a)가 0V를 피드백전압과 1.0V의 기준전압을 비교하여 '로우'레벨을 출력한다. 이때 제3 비교기(14b)는 3.7V의 기준전압과 커패시터(Css)에 충전된 전압을 비교하는데, 충분히 충전되기전 충전전압이 3.7V이하일 경우에는 제3 비교기(14b)는 '하이'레벨을 출력하고, 반면 충분히 충전되어 충전전압이 3.7V이상이면 '로우'레벨을 출력한다.The open lamp detector 14 continuously detects the open lamp. If the open lamp is in the open lamp state, the feedback voltage becomes 0V, so that the second comparator 14a of the open lamp detector 14 feeds back 0V. Output the 'low' level by comparing the voltage with the reference voltage of 1.0V. At this time, the third comparator 14b compares the reference voltage of 3.7V with the voltage charged in the capacitor Css. When the charging voltage is less than 3.7V before being sufficiently charged, the third comparator 14b sets the 'high' level. On the other hand, if it is sufficiently charged and the charging voltage is higher than 3.7V, it outputs 'low' level.

그런데, 피드백전압이 '0V'인 램프오픈되는 시점에서 상기 커패시터(Css)의 충전전압이 3.7V정도로 충전되는 셔트다운되는 시점까지의 시간, 즉 수십∼수백msec정도의 시간이 걸리므로, 이 시간동안에 제2비교기(14a)의 출력이 '로우'레벨이 되고, 제3비교기(14b)의 출력은 '하이'레벨이므로, 오아게이트(14c)의 출력은 '하이'레벨이 되고, 이때 램프오픈은 검출되었지만 아직 셔트다운이 이루어지지 않은 상태로 남아 있게 되며, 이 시간동안에, 상기 PWM신호발생기(13)는 피드백전압이 기준전압보다 낮으므로 계속해서 듀티비를 높여 트랜스(30)의 2차측에 전압을 높이게 하므로, 트랜스의 공급되는 전압을 차단하는 셔트다운(shut down)에 진입하기까지의 시간동안, 즉 수십에서 수백마이크로초(msec)의 시간동안에 트랜스의 출력단에 매우 높은 고전압이 걸리게 되므로, 이 고전압에 의해서 절연파괴등의 문제점이 있었던 것이다.However, the time from the time when the feedback voltage is '0 V' to the lamp opening time until the charge-down time when the charging voltage of the capacitor Css is charged to about 3.7 V, that is, several tens to several hundred msec, takes this time. While the output of the second comparator 14a is at the 'low' level and the output of the third comparator 14b is at the 'high' level, the output of the oragate 14c is at the 'high' level. Is detected but not yet shut down. During this time, the PWM signal generator 13 continues to increase the duty ratio to the secondary side of the transformer 30 because the feedback voltage is lower than the reference voltage. As the voltage is increased, a very high high voltage is applied to the output of the transformer for a period of time before it enters a shutdown, which cuts off the supply voltage of the transformer, that is, for several tens to hundreds of microseconds (msec). It will been problems such as dielectric breakdown by a high voltage.

본 발명은 상기한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 안출한 것으로, 따라서, 본 발명의 목적은 인버터 제어기에서 오픈램프감지 시점에서 셔트다운(shut down)되는 시점 동안에 초래되는 트랜스의 2차측 과전압을 방지하도록 함으로써, 제어기의 이상동작을 방지하여 보다 안정된 동작을 수행할 수 있도록 하는 과전압 방지기능을 구비한 인버터 제어기를 제공하는데 있다.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problem, and therefore, an object of the present invention is to prevent the secondary side overvoltage of the transformer caused during the shutdown down time from the open lamp detection time in the inverter controller, The present invention provides an inverter controller having an overvoltage protection function that prevents an abnormal operation of the controller to perform a more stable operation.

도3은 본 발명에 따른 인버터제어기의 오픈램프검출부 및 주변회로도로서, 도3을 참조하면, 본 발명에 따른 과전압 방지기능을 구비한 인버터 제어기는 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제3비교기(14b)가 '하이'레벨을 출력하면, 피드백전압을 입력받는 반전 입력단자(INV)측의 전압을 설정전압이상으로 유지시키는 일정전압 유지회로부(15); 를 포함한다.3 is an open lamp detection unit and a peripheral circuit diagram of the inverter controller according to the present invention.

상기 일정전압 유지회로부(15)는 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제3비교기(14b)의 출력단에 접속한 일측단과, 피드백전압을 입력받는 반전 입력단자(INV)에 접속한 타측단을 갖는 제1저항(R1)과, 이 제1 저항(R1)의 타측단에 접속한 일측단과, 접지로 접속한 타측단을 갖는 제2 저항(R2)을 포함한다.The constant voltage maintaining circuit unit 15 has a first end connected to the output terminal of the third comparator 14b of the open lamp detector 14 and the other end connected to the inverting input terminal INV for receiving the feedback voltage.

이와같이 구성된 본 발명에 따른 동작을 첨부도면에 의거하여 하기에 상세히 설명한다.Operation according to the present invention configured as described above will be described in detail below based on the accompanying drawings.

도3을 참조하면, 램프가 오픈됨에 따라 반전압력단자(INV)를 통해 피드백전압인 입력전압이 '0V'로 입력되면, 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제2 비교기(14a)가 입력전압 '0V'와 기준전압 '1.0V'를 비교하여 '로우'레벨을 출력하고, 그리고 전류원(11)에서 전류가 'SS'단자를 통해서 접지로 흐르면서 'SS'단자에 접속된 커패시터(Css)에 충전이 시작되며, 이 커패시터(Css)의 충전전압이 '3.7V'이하일 경우에는 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제3 비교기(14b)가 기준전압 '3.7V'와 상기 커패시터(Css)의 충전전압을 비교하여 '하이'레벨을 출력하고, 이 커패시터(Css)의 충전전압이 '3.7V'이상으로 되는 경우에는 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제3 비교기(14b)가 기준전압 '3.7V'와 상기 커패시터(Css)의 충전전압을 비교하여 '로우'레벨을 출력한다.Referring to FIG. 3, when an input voltage, which is a feedback voltage, is inputted as '0V' through the inversion pressure terminal INV as the lamp is opened, the second comparator 14a of the open lamp detection unit 14 receives an input voltage of '0V'. 'And' reference voltage '1.0V' is compared to output the 'low' level, and the current from the current source 11, the current flows through the 'SS' terminal to the ground charge to the capacitor (Css) connected to the 'SS' terminal When the charging voltage of the capacitor Css is less than or equal to 3.7V, the third comparator 14b of the open lamp detector 14 compares the charging voltage of the capacitor Css with the reference voltage of 3.7V. Outputs a high level, and when the charging voltage of the capacitor Css becomes equal to or greater than 3.7V, the third comparator 14b of the open lamp detection unit 14 receives the reference voltage of '3.7V' and the capacitor. Compare the charging voltage of (Css) and output the 'low' level.

이때, 충전전압이 '3.7V'이하일 경우에는 제2 비교기(14a)의 '로우'레벨과 제3 비교기(14b)의 '하이'레벨은 오아게이트(14c)에서 논리합되어 '하이'레벨로 출력되며, 반면 충전전압이 '3.7V'이상일 경우에는 제2 비교기(14a)의 '로우'레벨과 제3 비교기(14b)의 '하이'레벨은 오아게이트(14c)에서 논리합되어 '로우'레벨로 출력된다.At this time, when the charging voltage is '3.7V' or less, the 'low' level of the second comparator 14a and the 'high' level of the third comparator 14b are logically summed at the oragate 14c and output to the 'high' level. On the other hand, when the charging voltage is '3.7V' or more, the 'low' level of the second comparator 14a and the 'high' level of the third comparator 14b are logically summed at the oragate 14c to the 'low' level. Is output.

따라서, 램프오픈이 검출되어 셔트다운되기 까지의 시간, 즉 커패시터(Css)에 충전이 시작되어 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제3비교기(14b)의 기준전압(3.7V)이상으로 전압이 충전되는데 대략 수십에서 수백msec정도가 소요되며, 이 충전시간동안에 종래의 PWM신호발생부(12)는 PWM신호의 듀티비를 급격하게 높여 트랜스의 2차측 전압을 계속해서 높일려고 한다.Therefore, the time until the lamp open is detected and shut down, that is, charging starts at the capacitor Css, and the voltage is charged above the reference voltage (3.7 V) of the third comparator 14b of the open lamp detection unit 14. It takes about tens to hundreds of msec, and during this charging time, the conventional PWM signal generator 12 attempts to continuously increase the secondary voltage of the transformer by rapidly increasing the duty ratio of the PWM signal.

즉, 상기 피드백전압이 '0V'일 경우에는 상기 제1 비교기(12)가 차전압인 '1.5V'에 해당하는 레벨(로우레벨)을 PWM신호발생부(13)로 제공함에 따라, 이 PWM신호발생부(13)에서는 상기 제1 비교기(12)에서 출력되는 '레벨'이 로우레벨이면 PWM신호의 듀티비를 크게 높여 트랜스로 공급되는 전압을 순간적으로 높이는 방향으로 동작한다.That is, when the feedback voltage is '0 V', the first comparator 12 provides the PWM signal generator 13 with a level (low level) corresponding to '1.5 V' as the differential voltage. If the 'level' output from the first comparator 12 is a low level, the signal generator 13 operates in a direction in which the duty ratio of the PWM signal is greatly increased to temporarily increase the voltage supplied to the transformer.

그러나, 본 발명에 따른 일정전압 유지회로부(15)는 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제3 비교기(14b)의 출력전압, 즉 하이'레벨의 전압을 제1,제2 저항(R1,R2)의 분압비율로 분압하여 상기 반전입력단자(INV)에 일정전압이 걸리도록 함으로써, 제1 비교기(12)의 반전단자에는 설정전압이 걸리게 되므로 제1 비교기(12)에서 출력되는 차값이 크지 않게 됨에 따라 PWM신호발생부(13)가 듀티비를 갑자기 크게 발생시키지 않게 된다.However, the constant voltage maintaining circuit unit 15 according to the present invention uses the output voltage of the third comparator 14b of the open lamp detection unit 14, that is, the voltage of the high 'level, of the first and second resistors R1 and R2. By dividing at a voltage divider ratio and applying a constant voltage to the inverting input terminal INV, a set voltage is applied to the inverting terminal of the first comparator 12, so that the difference value output from the first comparator 12 is not large. The PWM signal generator 13 does not suddenly generate a large duty ratio.

만약, 상기 커패시터(Css)에 충분한 충전이 이루어져 '3.7V'이상으로 되면, 오픈램프검출부(14)의 제3 비교기(14b)가 로우레벨로 출력되는데, 이때에 비로소 상기 반전입력단자(INV)의 전압이 '0V'로 떨어지게 되며, 이는 이미 셔트다운된 상태이므로 트랜스의 2차측 전압이 급격히 증가되지 않게 된다.When sufficient charge is made to the capacitor Css and becomes '3.7 V' or more, the third comparator 14b of the open lamp detector 14 is output at a low level. At this time, the inverting input terminal INV The voltage of is dropped to '0V', which is already shut down so that the secondary voltage of the transformer does not increase rapidly.

상술한 바와같은 본 발명에 따르면, 인버터 제어기에서 오픈램프감지 시점에서 셔트다운(shut down)되는 시점 동안에 초래되는 트랜스의 2차측 과전압을 방지하도록 함으로써, 제어기의 이상동작을 방지하여 보다 안정된 동작을 수행할 수 있도록 하는 특별한 효과가 있는 것이다.According to the present invention as described above, by preventing the secondary side overvoltage of the transformer caused during the shutdown down time from the open lamp detection time in the inverter controller, to prevent abnormal operation of the controller to perform a more stable operation There is a special effect that makes it possible.

이상의 설명은 본 발명의 일실시예에 대한 설명에 불과하며, 본 발명은 그 구성의 범위내에서 다양한 변경 및 개조가 가능하다.The above description is only a description of one embodiment of the present invention, the present invention is capable of various changes and modifications within the scope of the configuration.
