Description

發光二極體驅動電路Light-emitting diode driving circuit

本提案係提供一種發光二極體驅動電路,特別關於一種非隔離式的發光二極體驅動電路。The present invention provides a light emitting diode driving circuit, and more particularly to a non-isolated light emitting diode driving circuit.

於照明裝置方面,由於發光二極體與一般發光源相比較,發光二極體具有壽命長、耗電量低、不易損壞等優點,使得發光二極體成為人類在研究開發與生活應用方面的重要對象。然而,發光二極體需要直流電源來驅動,因此當發光二極體應用於接收交流電源時,則需要發光二極體驅動電路將交流電源轉換為直流電源,以驅動發光二極體發光。In terms of lighting devices, since the light-emitting diodes have advantages of long life, low power consumption, and low damage, the light-emitting diodes have become human beings in research and development and life applications. Important object. However, the light emitting diode needs to be driven by a DC power source. Therefore, when the light emitting diode is applied to receive AC power, the LED driving circuit is required to convert the AC power into a DC power source to drive the LED to emit light.

目前市面上的交流-直流轉換器(AC-DC converter)無論是採用非隔離式或是隔離式的架構,通常係藉由控制電路驅動開關電晶體,以將輸入的交流電源進行高頻調變,再經由電感與電容所組成的濾波電路加以整流濾波為直流電源輸出至負載端。在交流電源剛輸入交流-直流轉換器時,交流-直流轉換器尚未運作,通常需要藉由啟動電路提供啟動電壓予控制電路,以使控制電路啟動開關電晶體,進而使交流-直流轉換器開始運作。當交流-直流轉換器開始運作後,再藉由交流-直流轉換器的輸出端提供額外的電力予控制電路。At present, the AC-DC converter on the market adopts a non-isolated or isolated architecture, usually by driving a switching transistor through a control circuit to perform high-frequency modulation of the input AC power source. Then, the filter circuit composed of the inductor and the capacitor is rectified and filtered to output the DC power to the load terminal. When the AC power supply is just input to the AC-DC converter, the AC-DC converter is not yet in operation, and it is usually necessary to provide a starting voltage to the control circuit by the starting circuit, so that the control circuit activates the switching transistor, thereby starting the AC-DC converter. Operation. When the AC-DC converter starts operating, additional power is supplied to the control circuit through the output of the AC-DC converter.

習知啟動電路係由功率電阻所構成,因此於控制電路被啟動電路啟動後,啟動電路不能主動停止,而造成功率的持續消耗,進而無法符合低待機電力要求。為了達到低待機電力的要求,業者提出一種具高壓電流源的啟動電路。當控制電路未被啟動時,利用主動開關產生高壓定電流源以啟動控制電路,並對儲能電容充電;當控制電路被啟動後,將高壓定電流源關閉,以減少功率損耗。雖然現有的技術已可使交流-直流轉換器達到低待機電力的要求,但是具高壓電流源的啟動電路需增加許多元件,除了使交流-直流轉換器的製作成本提高之外,也使交流-直流轉換器的體積增加。The conventional starting circuit is composed of a power resistor. Therefore, after the control circuit is started by the starting circuit, the starting circuit cannot be actively stopped, and the power is continuously consumed, thereby failing to meet the low standby power requirement. In order to meet the requirements of low standby power, the manufacturer proposes a starting circuit with a high voltage current source. When the control circuit is not activated, the active switch is used to generate a high voltage constant current source to start the control circuit and charge the storage capacitor; when the control circuit is started, the high voltage constant current source is turned off to reduce power loss. Although the existing technology has enabled the AC-DC converter to achieve low standby power requirements, the startup circuit with a high-voltage current source requires a large number of components, in addition to increasing the manufacturing cost of the AC-DC converter, and also enables AC- The volume of the DC converter is increased.

舉例而言,單一個發光二極體20的順向電壓可為但不限於3伏特(Voltage,V),當單一個發光二極體20接收約0.7~0.9倍的順向電壓(約2.1~2.7伏特)時,單一個發光二極體20開始導通。以下係以單一個發光二極體20接收約0.8倍的順向電壓(約2.4伏特)即開始導通為例。在本實施例中,由於發光二極體20的數量為六十個,故發光二極體串列104需接收144伏特才可導通。因此,當輸出電容98的電壓大於144伏特時,發光二極體串列104才可被驅動,進而使發光二極體串列104提供大於或等於工作電壓VDD的啟動電壓VS予控制電路110。需注意的是,由於不同的控制電路具有不同的工作電壓,故分壓端點P可依據控制電路110所具有的工作電壓VDD調整位置。其中,發光二極體串列104藉由分壓端點P所提供的啟動電壓係為驅動發光二極體串列104的分壓(即Vo_normal×(Nlow/Ntotal),其中Vo_normal係為大於或等於導通發光二極體串列104的電壓之輸出電容的電壓,Nlow係為自分壓端點P至發光二極體串列104的接地端之間發光二極體20的數量,Ntotal係為發光二極體串列104中發光二極體20的數量)。For example, the forward voltage of a single LED 20 can be, but is not limited to, 3 volts (Vage), when a single LED 20 receives a forward voltage of about 0.7 to 0.9 times (about 2.1~). At 2.7 volts, a single light-emitting diode 20 begins to conduct. The following is an example in which a single light-emitting diode 20 receives a forward voltage (about 2.4 volts) of about 0.8 times, that is, the conduction is started. In this embodiment, since the number of the light emitting diodes 20 is sixty, the light emitting diode series 104 needs to receive 144 volts to be turned on. Therefore, when the voltage of the output capacitor 98 is greater than 144 volts, the LED array 104 can be driven, thereby causing the LED array 104 to provide a startup voltage V S greater than or equal to the operating voltage V DD to the control circuit. 110. It should be noted that since different control circuits have different operating voltages, the voltage dividing end point P can be adjusted according to the operating voltage V DD of the control circuit 110. The starting voltage of the LED array 104 by the voltage dividing terminal P is the driving voltage of the driving diode series 104 (ie, V o_normal ×(N low /N total ), where V o_normal The voltage is greater than or equal to the voltage of the output capacitor that turns on the voltage of the LED array 104, and N low is the number of the light-emitting diodes 20 from the voltage-dividing end point P to the ground terminal of the LED series 104. N total is the number of the light-emitting diodes 20 in the light-emitting diode series 104).
