Description

200941018 九、發明說明: 【發明所屬之技術領域】 本發明為一種發光二極體的警示系統與方法,特別是 一種具有發光二極體有效壽命偵測的發光二極體的警示系 統與方法。 【先前技術】 藝發光二極體(Light Emitting Diode,LED),由於具有 高耐震性(shock resistance)、壽命長,同時耗電量少、 發熱度小,所以其應用範圍遍及曰常生活中的各項用品, 如家電製品及各式儀器之指示燈或光源等。近年來,隨著 白光型發光二極體(White Light-Emitting Diode,WLED) 的出現,使LED擺脫過去只能用在指示燈號、霓虹燈飾等 場合,開始往電子照明領域邁進,包括汽車的方向辅助燈、 數位相機的閃光燈等,未來更可取代白熾燈和螢光燈,做 ❾為主要的家庭照明。 一般傳統的LED是透過一 P/N介面(junction)來發 光’若P/N介面上發生缺陷,則容易造成電流集中而燒毀 LED。但是,LED在使用一段時間後,亮度會逐漸降低, 因此須要加大電流驅動,使得LED的發光亮度可以維持一 定’但是這又增加燒毁LED的機率。此外,目前LED僅 能在損壞時進行替換,不能預先得知LED的損壞程度,用 以做為預先替換的考量,對使用者來說,是不方便且增加 危險性。舉例來說,車輛所有安全性的元件,如油量與水 5 200941018 ♦ , 溫與安全氣囊,在儀表板上幾乎都有指示燈,雖然車燈也 有開路警示燈號,不過都是於光源完全失效時才會顯示, 也就是使用者可能會經歷需光源卻無光源的時段。若是發 生在號諸燈與鐵路信號燈上,其危險性就更高了,現有led 與傳統光源中’尤其是LED由於半導體材料特性,光輸出 • 都是於使用過程中逐漸下降,且根據使用溫度不同與環境 狀態’每一顆LED真正的壽命與出光狀態都為無法準確預 估’一般完全失效都發生在使用中,用於一般照a月雖然有 β 些不便’尚可接受,若用於安全或信號的光源就有極大的 危險性,如車燈與號誌燈與鐵路信號燈。 【發明内容】 本發明的可提供一種具有發光二極體有效壽命偵測的 發光二極體的警示系統與方法。 本發明亦可提供一種LED光源有效壽命檢出之系統, 也就是說在LED光源亮度未下降與完全失效前,提供預警 ❹指示燈或晶粒有效百分比信號之顯示功能。 本發明亦可提供一種發光二極體的警示系統,包括一 發光單元、一偵測裝置以及一警示裝置。該發光單元,由 複數個微晶粒組成。該偵測裝置,用以偵測該發光單元, 並輸出一偵測結果。該警示裝置,根據該偵測結果顯示該 發光單元中的微晶粒的損害狀態。 【實施方式】 第1圖為LED微晶粒的結構示意圖。第1圖中所示的 6 200941018 • LED晶片可為交流LED或是高壓直流LED。在LED晶片 上,將LED先分割成數十個微晶粒,再電性連接而成,因 此在晶片缺陷特徵上也被完全分割成數十個區塊,不會有 並聯連鎖效應。當LED晶片上有一微晶粒失效時,並不會 讓整個LED完全不發光,因此單一微晶粒失效影響程度會 以總微晶粒數為分母來計算。因此微晶粒數分割越多,單 一微晶粒失效影響度會越低,以30微晶粒數組成的交流 led而例,單一微晶粒失效影響度僅2 7%且影響的範圍又 ® 極可能僅限在交流電之某一半波。 若以較高電壓的方式設計,交流LED或高壓LED微 晶粒可能100顆以上,其每一個微晶粒失效影響度就會降 至。根據交流LED失效特性分析推估,若以目前實驗 資料及失效標準30%而論,1〇〇顆微晶粒的交流LED,等 於須有30顆微晶粒失效才達失效條件,此時光源輸出尚高 於初始亮度,只是效率較差而已,LED壽命可擺脫缺陷效 應而充分延長。 _ 第2A圖為一交流LED中失效的微晶粒數與交流led 的電壓-電流-功率((V-I-W))示意圖。在第2圖中,係以 一 〇.〇6mm2 36/54pcs的交流LED為例說明。曲線21表示 固定交流電壓,曲線22為交流LED所接收到的電流, 曲線23為交流LED所消耗的功率。由第2A圖至第2F圖 可以發現’失效的微晶粒數目越多,交流LED所接收到的 電流越高,這也使得交流LED所發出的光的亮度也跟著增 加。雖然交流LED的發光效率會變得較差,但是確能^ 7 200941018 • LED壽命有效的延長。這樣的特徵也出現在以微晶粒組成 的高壓直流LED上。 第3圖表示在定電壓的驅動下,交流LED微晶粒失效 特性變動率圖。在第3圖中,係以〇.〇6mm2 36/54pcs的交 流LED為例說明。曲線31表示習知的LED失效示意曲線。 . 由於一般LED的PN接面只要有發生缺陷,在定電壓系統 ‘ 的驅動下,光通量與等效内阻會急速下降,電流會瞬間升 高燒毀LED形成開路。曲線32表示交流LED中不同數量 ❿ 的微晶粒失效時的輸入功率變化百分比。曲線33表示交流 LED中不同數量的微晶粒失效時的交流LED的光通量變 化百分比。曲線34表示交流LED中不同數量的微晶粒失 效時的交流LED的發光效率變化百分比。由圖上可知,微 晶粒失效數量越南,交流LED所發出的光通量越多。當交 流LED中的微晶粒失效數置為8顆時’輸入的功率增加了 159%,交流LED輸出的光通量增加了 53%,發光效率則 下降了 41.5%。交流LED或高壓直流LED在定電壓驅動 ❹下’在部分微晶粒失效短路時’會有一段光通量上升區間, 這種現象起因於輸入功率與電流上升’且與微晶粒失效數 成正比關係。此時交流LED的失效只會降低自身的發光效 率,並不會像習知的LED因等效内阻急迷下降而燒毀。若 交流LED上有部分微晶粒為開路,亦有可能保持半波點量 (亦即在父流電壓的正電壓或負電壓區間時,交流led仍 會發光)。 因為本發明所提的交流LED或高壓直流LED在部分 8 200941018 微晶粒失效時,輸出的光通量會遞增,因此,若要維持交 流LED或高壓直流LED輸出的光通量固定,則必需在交 流LED或高壓直流LED輸出的光通量增加時,降低輸入 交流LED或高壓直流LED的電壓或電流。與習知必須提 高驅動電壓或驅動電流來維持發光元件的亮度的特徵剛好 相反。 第4圖為根據本發明之發光二極體的顯示系統的一實 施例的方塊圖。LED單元43由交流LED或高壓直流LED © 所組成’其中交流LED或高壓直流LED皆由如第1圖所 示之複數個微晶粒所組成。電壓源41透過可變電阻42與 LED單元43耦接。光偵測器44用以偵測LED單元43所 輸出的光通量變化,或是LED發光單元43亮度變化。光 偵測器44根據該LED發光單元43增加的亮度來調整可變 電阻42的電阻值,使得輸入LED發光單元43的電流減 少’以維持LED發光單元43輸出固定的光通量。這樣以 來也可以延長LED發光單元43的使用壽命。在本實施例 Φ中,LED發光單元43可能為單一交流LED或高壓直流 LED,或是由複數個交流lED或高壓直流組成的模 組,如汽車的車燈或是交通號誌燈具。 第5圖為根據本發明之發光二極體的顯示系統的另一 實施例的方塊圖。LED單元53由交流LED或高壓直流LED 所組成,其中交流LED或高壓直流LED皆由如第1圖所 示之複數個微晶粒所組成。光偵測器54用以偵測led單 兀53所輪出的光通量’並將偵測到的結果傳送給控制器 200941018 • 51。控制器51根據LED發光單元53增加的亮度,控制電 流源52來減少輸入該LED發光單元53的驅動電流。在本 實施例中,若LED單元53由高壓直流LED所組成,則用 以驅動LED單元53的驅動電流可以為一脈衝寬度調變信 號,由一脈衝寬度調變電路產生。並可藉由調整該脈衝寬 度調變信號的責任周期,來控制LED發光單元53的亮度。 第6圖為根據本發明之具有警示裝置的發光二極體的 警示系統的一實施例的方塊圖。LED單元61由電壓源62 ©驅動。LED單元61由如第i圖所示之複數個微晶粒的高 壓直流LED所組成。偵測裝置63用以偵測LED單元 所輸出的光通量變化或亮度變化,並將偵測到的結果傳送 給電壓源62,用以調整電壓源62輸出到LED單元61的 驅動電壓,使得LED單元43所輸出的光通量維持一定。 在另一實施例中,偵測裝置63將偵測到的結果傳送給警示 裝置64,警示裝置64並根據偵測到的結果判斷lED單元 _ 61中失效的微晶粒數。若失效的微晶粒數超出一預定值 時,此時LED單元61仍可正常運作,但是警示裝置64輸 出警示信號,如閃爍的燈號,警告音或是味道,提醒使用 者進行更換。 警示裝置64與調整電壓源62的輪出電壓可同時運 作,亦即可同時知道LED單元61中失效的微晶粒數,亦 可調整電壓源62的輸出電壓使得LED單元43所輸出的光 ,量維持一定。在一實施例中,可先藉由警示裝置64記錄 a目刚LED單元61中失效的微晶粒數後,再調整電壓源 200941018 . 62的輸出電壓。 在另一實施例中,偵測裝置63偵測LED單元61所輸 出的光通量變化,或是LED發光單元61亮度變化,並將 债測到的結果轉換為LED發光單元61中微晶粒的失效 數。若LED發光單元61中微晶粒的失效數大於一預定值’ 或是失效的微晶粒數佔全部微晶粒數的百分比大於一定預 定百分比時’偵測裝置63輸出控制信號,使警示裝置64 輸出警示信號,如閃爍的燈號,警告音或是味道,提醒使 ❹用者進行更換。 在另一實施例中,電壓源62為定電壓源,因此不須根 據偵測裝置63的偵測結果調整輸出電壓。偵測裝置63可 能為電壓變化檢測電路、電流變化檢測電路或功率變化檢 測電路’並將偵測到的結果傳送給警示裝置64。若led 發光單元61中微晶粒的失效數大於一預定值,或是失效的 微晶粒數佔全部微晶粒數的百分比大於一定預定百分比 時’警示裝置64輸出警示信號,如閃爍的燈號,警告音或 ❹疋味道,提醒使用者進行更換。 第7圖為根據本發明之具有警示裝置的發光二極體的 警示系統的另一實施例的方塊圖。LED單元71由電壓源 72驅動。LED單元71可由交流LED或高壓直流LED所 組成,其中交流LED或高壓直流LED皆由如第1圖所示 之複數個微晶粒所組成。在本實施例中,偵測裝置為一功 率變化檢出裝置73,用以判斷LED單元71的功率變化。 在本實施例中,LED單元71為高壓直流LED,且特性以 200941018 第3圖所示之特性曲線為例說明,且雷厭 屯!嫁72為定雷懕200941018 IX. Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention is a warning system and method for a light-emitting diode, and more particularly, a warning system and method for a light-emitting diode having an effective lifetime detection of a light-emitting diode. [Prior Art] Light Emitting Diode (LED) has a wide range of shock resistance, long life, low power consumption and low heat generation, so its application range is common in everyday life. Various items, such as household appliances and indicators or light sources of various instruments. In recent years, with the advent of the White Light-Emitting Diode (WLED), the LED has been used in the past, and can only be used in the field of indicator lights, neon lighting, etc., and has begun to move into the field of electronic lighting, including automobiles. Directional auxiliary lights, digital camera flashes, etc., can replace incandescent and fluorescent lights in the future, making it the main home lighting. Generally, conventional LEDs emit light through a P/N interface. If a defect occurs on the P/N interface, current is easily concentrated and the LED is burned. However, after a period of use of the LED, the brightness will gradually decrease, so it is necessary to increase the current drive so that the brightness of the LED can be maintained at a certain value 'however, this increases the probability of burning the LED. In addition, LEDs can only be replaced in the event of damage, and the degree of damage of the LEDs cannot be known in advance, and as a pre-replacement consideration, it is inconvenient and dangerous for the user. For example, all safety components of the vehicle, such as oil quantity and water 5 200941018 ♦ , temperature and airbags, almost all indicators on the dashboard, although the lights also have open warning lights, but all in the light source It will be displayed when it is invalid, that is, the user may experience a period of time when there is a light source but no light source. If it occurs on the number of lights and railway signal lights, the danger is even higher. In existing LEDs and traditional light sources, especially LEDs due to the characteristics of semiconductor materials, light output is gradually reduced during use, and according to the use temperature Different and environmental conditions 'The true life and light output status of each LED is not accurate. 'Generally, all failures occur in use. For general photos, although there are some inconveniences in a month, it is acceptable, if used Safety or signal sources are extremely dangerous, such as lights and lights and railway lights. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention can provide a warning system and method for a light-emitting diode having an effective lifetime detection of a light-emitting diode. The invention can also provide a system for detecting the effective life of an LED light source, that is, providing a display function of an early warning ❹ indicator light or a die effective percentage signal before the brightness of the LED light source is lowered or completely failed. The invention can also provide a warning system for a light-emitting diode, comprising a light-emitting unit, a detecting device and a warning device. The light emitting unit is composed of a plurality of microcrystal grains. The detecting device is configured to detect the lighting unit and output a detection result. The warning device displays a damage state of the microcrystal grains in the light emitting unit according to the detection result. [Embodiment] FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing the structure of an LED microcrystal. 6 200941018 shown in Figure 1 • The LED chip can be an AC LED or a high voltage DC LED. On the LED chip, the LED is first divided into dozens of micro-grains and then electrically connected. Therefore, the defect characteristics of the wafer are also completely divided into dozens of blocks, and there is no parallel interlocking effect. When there is a micro-grain failure on the LED wafer, the entire LED will not be completely illuminated, so the degree of single micro-grain failure will be calculated by taking the total micro-grain number as the denominator. Therefore, the more the micro-grain number is divided, the lower the influence of single micro-grain failure. For example, the alternating-lead consisting of 30 micro-grain numbers has a single micro-grain failure effect of only 2 7% and the range of influence is It is most likely to be limited to a certain half of the alternating current. If designed at a higher voltage, the AC LED or high-voltage LED micro-grain may be more than 100, and the effect of each micro-grain failure will be reduced. According to the analysis of AC LED failure characteristics, if the current experimental data and the failure criterion are 30%, 1 微 micro-array AC LED is equal to 30 micro-crystal failures to reach the failure condition. The output is still higher than the initial brightness, but the efficiency is poor, and the LED life can be fully extended without the defect effect. _ Figure 2A is a schematic diagram of the number of failed micro-grains in an AC LED and the voltage-current-power ((V-I-W)) of the AC led. In Fig. 2, an AC LED of 〇.〇6mm2 36/54pcs is taken as an example. Curve 21 represents the fixed AC voltage, curve 22 is the current received by the AC LED, and curve 23 is the power consumed by the AC LED. From Fig. 2A to Fig. 2F, it can be found that the more the number of failed microcrystals, the higher the current received by the AC LED, which also causes the brightness of the light emitted by the AC LED to increase. Although the luminous efficiency of the AC LED will become poor, it can indeed be ^ 7 200941018 • The LED life is effectively extended. Such features also appear on high voltage DC LEDs composed of microcrystals. Figure 3 is a graph showing the rate of change of the failure characteristics of the AC LED micro-crystals driven by a constant voltage. In Fig. 3, an AC LED of 〇.〇6mm2 36/54pcs is taken as an example. Curve 31 represents a conventional LED failure profile. As long as there is a defect in the PN junction of the general LED, under the drive of the constant voltage system, the luminous flux and the equivalent internal resistance will drop rapidly, and the current will rise rapidly and burn the LED to form an open circuit. Curve 32 represents the percentage change in input power for different numbers of ❿ microcrystals in the AC LED. Curve 33 represents the percent change in luminous flux of the alternating current LED when a different number of microcrystals in the alternating current LED fails. Curve 34 represents the percentage change in luminous efficiency of the alternating current LED when a different number of microcrystals in the alternating current LED fails. As can be seen from the figure, the number of micro-grain failures in Vietnam, the more luminous flux emitted by the AC LED. When the number of micro-grain failures in the AC LED was set to 8, the input power increased by 159%, the luminous flux of the AC LED output increased by 53%, and the luminous efficiency decreased by 41.5%. AC LED or high-voltage DC LED will have a luminous flux rise interval when the voltage is driven by a constant voltage. This phenomenon is caused by the increase of input power and current' and is proportional to the number of micro-grain failures. . At this point, the failure of the AC LED will only reduce its own luminous efficiency, and will not burn like the conventional LED due to the decline of the equivalent internal resistance. If some of the micro-arrays on the AC LED are open, it is also possible to maintain a half-wave amount (that is, the AC LED will still emit light when the positive voltage or negative voltage range of the parent current voltage). Because the AC LED or the high-voltage DC LED proposed by the present invention fails in the partial 8 200941018 micro-grain failure, the luminous flux of the output increases, so if the luminous flux of the AC LED or the high-voltage DC LED output is to be fixed, it is necessary to be in the AC LED or When the luminous flux of the high-voltage DC LED output increases, the voltage or current of the input AC LED or the high-voltage DC LED is lowered. The opposite is true from the fact that it is necessary to increase the driving voltage or the driving current to maintain the luminance of the light-emitting element. Fig. 4 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a display system of a light-emitting diode according to the present invention. The LED unit 43 is composed of an alternating current LED or a high voltage direct current LED © wherein the alternating current LED or the high voltage direct current LED is composed of a plurality of microcrystal grains as shown in Fig. 1. The voltage source 41 is coupled to the LED unit 43 via a variable resistor 42. The photodetector 44 is configured to detect a change in the luminous flux output by the LED unit 43 or a change in the brightness of the LED lighting unit 43. The photodetector 44 adjusts the resistance value of the variable resistor 42 in accordance with the increased brightness of the LED lighting unit 43, so that the current input to the LED lighting unit 43 is reduced to maintain the LED lighting unit 43 outputting a fixed luminous flux. This also extends the life of the LED lighting unit 43. In the embodiment Φ, the LED lighting unit 43 may be a single alternating current LED or a high voltage direct current LED, or a module composed of a plurality of alternating current lED or high voltage direct current, such as a car light or a traffic sign. Fig. 5 is a block diagram showing another embodiment of a display system of a light-emitting diode according to the present invention. The LED unit 53 is composed of an alternating current LED or a high voltage direct current LED, wherein the alternating current LED or the high voltage direct current LED is composed of a plurality of microcrystal grains as shown in Fig. 1. The photodetector 54 is configured to detect the luminous flux emitted by the led unit 53 and transmit the detected result to the controller 200941018 • 51. The controller 51 controls the current source 52 to reduce the drive current input to the LED lighting unit 53 in accordance with the increased brightness of the LED lighting unit 53. In the present embodiment, if the LED unit 53 is composed of a high voltage DC LED, the driving current for driving the LED unit 53 can be a pulse width modulation signal generated by a pulse width modulation circuit. The brightness of the LED lighting unit 53 can be controlled by adjusting the duty cycle of the pulse width modulation signal. Fig. 6 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of a warning system for a light-emitting diode having a warning device according to the present invention. The LED unit 61 is driven by a voltage source 62 © . The LED unit 61 is composed of a plurality of micro-grained high voltage DC LEDs as shown in Fig. i. The detecting device 63 is configured to detect a change in the luminous flux or brightness of the LED unit, and transmit the detected result to the voltage source 62 for adjusting the driving voltage of the voltage source 62 to the LED unit 61, so that the LED unit The luminous flux output from 43 is kept constant. In another embodiment, the detecting means 63 transmits the detected result to the alerting device 64, and the alerting device 64 determines the number of failed micro-grains in the lED unit_61 based on the detected result. If the number of failed micro-grains exceeds a predetermined value, the LED unit 61 can still operate normally, but the warning device 64 outputs a warning signal such as a flashing light, a warning sound or a taste to remind the user to replace it. The warning device 64 and the adjustment voltage source 62 can simultaneously operate, and the number of micro-grains that fail in the LED unit 61 can be known at the same time, and the output voltage of the voltage source 62 can be adjusted so that the light output by the LED unit 43 is The amount is maintained. In an embodiment, the output voltage of the voltage source 200941018.62 may be adjusted after the number of micro-grains in the LED unit 61 is recorded by the warning device 64. In another embodiment, the detecting device 63 detects the change of the luminous flux output by the LED unit 61 or the brightness change of the LED lighting unit 61, and converts the result of the debt measurement into the failure of the micro-crystals in the LED lighting unit 61. number. If the number of failures of the micro-grains in the LED lighting unit 61 is greater than a predetermined value' or the percentage of the number of failed micro-grains to the total number of micro-grains is greater than a predetermined percentage, the detecting device 63 outputs a control signal to cause the warning device 64 Output warning signals, such as flashing lights, warning tones or tastes, to remind the user to replace them. In another embodiment, the voltage source 62 is a constant voltage source, so the output voltage does not need to be adjusted based on the detection result of the detecting means 63. The detecting means 63 may be a voltage change detecting circuit, a current change detecting circuit or a power change detecting circuit 'and transmit the detected result to the alerting device 64. If the number of failures of the micro-grains in the LED lighting unit 61 is greater than a predetermined value, or the percentage of the failed micro-grains to the total number of micro-grains is greater than a predetermined percentage, the warning device 64 outputs an alarm signal, such as a flashing light. No., warning tone or scent, remind the user to replace.

In the embodiment, the detecting device is a power change detecting device 73 for determining the power variation of the LED unit 71. In the present embodiment, the LED unit 71 is a high-voltage direct-current LED, and the characteristic is illustrated by the characteristic curve shown in FIG. 3 of 200941018, and it is ridiculous!
