New description: [New technical field] The present invention relates to a light source driving device, and more particularly to a liquid crystal screen light source driving device. * [Prior Art] Usually 'c〇ld cath〇 de Fluorescent Lamps' (s) or external electrode fluorescent lamps (Externai Eiectr〇de • Fluorescent LamPs, eefls) are used as backlights for LCD modules of flat panel displays. Sources such as liquid crystal displays, plasma display panels, and the like. In the LCD module, 'DC is usually converted to AC by DC/AC conversion circuit; L is converted to left by Converter Tranformer, and then inverted by inverter (InverterTransf) 〇rmer) supplies power to the lamp. In the conventional light source driving device, the conventional commutation transformer is generally used for isolation and boosting. However, the conventional converter transformer often has a large thickness due to a large number of windings, and it is difficult to achieve miniaturization. For example, a common 32-inch inverter transformer has a thickness of 9 mm, while a common converter transformer has a thickness of 20 mm or 25 mm. At the same time, as the size of the display device increases, the voltage of the g g increases, and at this time, the turn ratio of the inverter transformer also increases accordingly. The increased ring ratio will increase the copper loss of the inverter transformer and reduce the efficiency. Moreover, if the existing trunking cannot bypass all the turns, it is necessary to increase the reverse transformer, which is not conducive to the demand for miniaturization of the product. 4 M360424 [New content] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a light source driving device which has a small volume.

A resonant balance circuit is coupled between the secondary windings of the at least two isolation transformers for converting the second alternating current signal into an electrical signal that can drive the light source. A light source driving device for driving a light source, comprising at least two DC/AC conversion circuits, at least two isolation transformers, and a resonance balance circuit. φ Two DC/AC conversion circuits are used to convert the received DC signal into the first AC signal. The primary windings of the two isolation transformers are respectively connected to the at least two DC/AC conversion circuits, and the secondary windings are serially connected to isolate the DC component in the first AC signal, and the first AC signal is Convert to the second AC signal. A resonant balance circuit is coupled between the secondary windings of the at least two isolation transformers for converting the second alternating current signal into an electrical signal that can drive the light source. The light source driving device provided by the present invention adopts at least two isolation transformers 5 M360424, and connects the primary sides of the at least two isolation transformers in parallel, and the secondary side is connected in series, which makes the ring of the single isolation transformer The number is reduced, thereby reducing its thickness, which in turn allows the light source driving device provided by the present invention to have a smaller volume. [Embodiment] Fig. 1 is a view showing the configuration of an embodiment of a novel light source driving device. A light source driving device is used to drive the light source 30. In the present embodiment, the optical φ source 30 includes a plurality of lamps 32, 34 ..... 36, 38, such as a lamp tube 1, a lamp tube 2 - until the lamp tube N-1, the lamp tube N, wherein N is a lamp The number of tubes.

In the present embodiment, only the isolation transformers T1 and T2 will be described as an example. The DC/AC conversion circuit 10 is configured to convert the received DC signal into a first AC signal Vp. In the present embodiment, the first alternating current signal Vp outputted by the direct current/alternating current converting circuit φ 10 is a square wave signal. In this embodiment, the DC/AC conversion circuit 10 can be a full-bridge (Full-Bridge), a half-bridge (Half-Bridge), a push-pull architecture (Push-Pull), or a self-excited (Royer). ) Architecture. The isolation transformer ΤΙ, T2 is connected to the DC/AC conversion circuit 10 for isolating the DC component of the first AC signal Vp outputted by the DC/AC conversion circuit 10, and boosting the first AC signal Vp to the second AC signal. Vs. In the present embodiment, the isolation transformers T1 are connected to the primary winding of T2 and connected to the DC/AC conversion circuit, and the secondary windings are connected in series and connected to the resonance balancing circuit 20. In the present embodiment, the isolating transformers T1 and T2 include a converter transformer. In the present embodiment, the outputs of the isolating transformers T1 and T2 are adjustable. The isolation transformers T1 and T2 isolate the AC power source from the resonance balancing circuit 20 and the light source 30 such that the source 30 and the resonant balancing circuit 20 of the driving source 30 are in a safe state to comply with safety regulations. In the present embodiment, the isolation transformers T1 and T2 have a boost function because the secondary φ windings are connected in series. The resonant balance circuit 20 is connected between the secondary windings of the isolating transformers T1 and T2 for converting the second alternating current signal Vs outputted by the isolating transformers T1 and T2 into a third alternating current signal Vlamp that can drive the light source 30, and balancing the flow. The current through the plurality of lamps 32, 34 ..... 36, 38 of the light source 30. In this embodiment, the third alternating current signal Vlamp outputted by the resonant balancing circuit 20 is rectified into a sine wave signal. • In the present embodiment, the resonance balancing circuit 20 includes a plurality of inverter transformers 22 ..... The primary winding of the inverter transformer 22 ..... 24 is connected in series with the secondary winding of the isolation transformers T1 and T2, and the secondary winding is connected to the lamps 32, 34, ..., 36, 38, and the output of the driveable light source 30 is The electrical signal is to the lamps 32, 34, ..., 36, 38. Generally, when the lamp tube size is long, a high lamp voltage is required, so it is necessary to increase the number of turns of the inverter transformer 22 ..... 24 in the resonance balance circuit 20, and the number of turns is high, then copper Line losses and temperatures are also high. However, in the present embodiment, by using the isolation transformer 7 M3 60424 voltage regulator T1 and the secondary winding of T2 to be connected in series, the primary winding voltage of the inverter transformers 22, ..., 24 in the resonance balancing circuit 20 can be increased, thereby It is not necessary to increase the number of turns of the inverter transformer 22 ..... 24 to achieve the purpose of increasing the voltage of the lamp. At the same time, the inverter transformers 22, ..., 24 can be made to have a fixed turns ratio, so that different lamps only need to adjust the voltage (Vs) of the secondary windings of the isolation transformers T1 and T2 to obtain the required voltage. Such a design makes the resonant balancing circuit 20 easy to design and manufacture. φ In the present embodiment, the light source driving device further includes a dimming circuit 40. The dimming circuit 40 is electrically coupled to the DC/AC converting circuit 10 for controlling the output of the DC/AC converting circuit 10 to adjust the current flowing through the light source 30 based on the received dimming signal and the source feedback current. In the present embodiment, since the light source driving device includes at least two isolation transformers T1 and T2, the current input to each of the isolation transformers is reduced, thereby reducing the thickness and copper loss of the isolation transformers T1 and T2, thereby reducing the light. The effect of the volume of the source drive. At the same time, the isolation transformers T1 and T2 are connected in series on the secondary side, so that it is easier to increase the second alternating current signal vs. and the voltage of the input inverter transformers 22... 24 becomes smaller, thereby making the inverter used.
