本发明的最佳实施方式
以下各实施例的说明是参考附加的图式,用以例示本揭示可用以实施的特定实施例。
为了让本揭示的上述及其他目的、特征、优点能更明显易懂,下文将特举本揭示优选实施例,并配合所附图式,作详细说明如下。再者,本揭示所提到的方向用语,例如上、下、顶、底、前、后、左、右、内、外、侧层、周围、中央、水平、横向、垂直、纵向、轴向、径向、最上层或最下层等,仅是参考附加图式的方向。因此,使用的方向用语是用以说明及理解本揭示,而非用以限制本揭示。
在图中,结构相似的单元是以相同标号表示。
参照图1,本揭示的一实施例的过流保护电路包括升压电路210、电压控制模组230以及采样电路240。升压电路210用于将输入直流电压Vin升压成升压直流电压(即负载220所需要的电压)并将升压直流电压提供给负载220,以使负载220正常工作。电压控制模组230电性连接升压电路210,用于控制升压电路210,以使升压电路210将升压直流电压提供给负载220并实现恒流驱动负载220。采样电路240电性连接电压控制模组230。采样电路240用于检测升压电路210的电流,并根据检测到的升压电路210的电流(即电阻器250与升压电路210之间的电流)来产生第一控制信号或第二控制信号。第一控制信号用于控制采样电路240断开及控制电压控制模组230正常工作。第二控制信号用于控制采样电路240导通及控制电压控制模组230停止工作。过流保护电压为电阻器250的电阻值与流经电阻器250的电流的电流值的乘积。
具体地,当升压电路210的电流小于参考电流时,采样电路240产生第一控制信号,当升压电路210的电流大于参考电流时,采样电路240产生第二控制信号。
具体地,本实施例提供的过流保护电路可以根据过采样电路240检测到的升压电路210的电流来产生使电压控制模组230正常工作或者停止工作的控制信号,使得在升压电路210的电流急剧增加并超过所述参考电流时,采样电路240产生使电压控制模组230停止工作的控制信号,进而使电压控制模组230停止工作,避免整个电路中的电流过大而烧毁电路中的组件。
具体地,如上所述的过流保护电路可应用于背光模组的LED背光驱动电路中,在本实施例中,过流保护电路中的负载220可通常为LED串,但本揭示不局限于此。
参照图2,本揭示的一实施例的背光模组的过流保护电路包括上述的升压电路210、电压控制模组230以及采样电路240。
具体地,采样电路240包括第一晶体三极管T1、第二晶体三极管T2、第一电阻R1、第二电阻R2、第三电阻R3和第四电阻R4。
具体地,第一晶体三极管T1的第一电极连接第一电阻R1和第二电阻R2,第一晶体三极管T1的第二电极连接第二晶体三极管T2的第一电极和第三电阻R3,以及第一晶体三极管T1的第三电极接地。
具体地,第二晶体三极管T2的第一电极连接第一晶体三极管T1的第二电极和第三电阻R3,第二晶体三极管T2的第二电极接地,以及第二晶体三极管T2的第三电极连接使能信号EN。
具体地,第一电阻R1连接第二电阻R2和第四电阻R4。
具体地,当浪涌信号干扰到电压控制模组230,当升压电路210的电流大于参考电流时,升压电路210的电流(即瞬间一个峰值电流)在第四电阻R4上产生的电压降使第一晶体三极管T1和第二晶体三极管导通T2,电压控制模组230的开机使能信号管脚ENA被第二晶体三极管T2拉低到接地,使得电压控制模组230停止工作,输出电流下降。参照图3,经验证,背光模组的过流保护电路能快速关断开机使能信号管脚ENA使SSTCMP管脚到接地,输出电流将无法上冲,可以有效避免次级电流的异常增加,可有效保护LED串221。
具体地,第一晶体三极管T1为NPN型三极管,第一晶体三极管T1的第一电极、第二电极和第三电极对应为NPN型三极管的基极、集电极和发射极。
具体地,第二晶体三极管T2为PNP型三极管,第二晶体三极管T2的第一电极、第二电极和第三电极对应为PNP型三极管的基极、集电极和发射极。
具体地,当升压电路210的电流大于参考电流时,升压电路210的电流在第四电阻R4上产生的电压降使NPN型三极管和PNP型三极管导通,NPN型三极管的基极的电压增加,NPN型三极管的集电极的电压增加,PNP型三极管的基极的电压增加,电压控制模组230的开机使能信号管脚ENA被PNP型三极管拉低到接地,使得电压控制模组230停止工作。
具体地,升压电路210包括充放电模组213。当电压控制模组230输出导通信号(即高电平信号)给升压电路210时,充放电模组213将升压直流电压提供给LED串221。当电压控制模组230输出截止信号(即低电平信号)给升压电路210时,充放电模组213被进行充电。充放电模组213可例如是电容器,但本揭示不局限于此。
此外,升压电路210还进一步包括电感器211、整流二极管212和第一MOS晶体管214。电感器211的一端用于接收输入直流电压Vin,电感器211的另一端耦接到整流二极管212的正极,整流二极管212的负极耦接到LED串221的正端,充放电模组213的一端耦接到整流二极管212的负极和LED串221的正端之间,充放电模组213的另一端电性接地,第一MOS晶体管214的漏极耦接到电感器211的另一端和整流二极管212的正极之间,第一MOS晶体管214的源极耦接电阻器250,第一MOS晶体管214的栅极耦接到电压控制模组230。电压控制模组230通过控制输出到第一MOS晶体管214的栅极的驱动信号来控制升压电路210,以使升压电路210将输入直流电压Vin(例如24V)升压到LED串221正常发光所需的电压,并将升压后的电压提供给LED串221使用。电压控制模组230的ISEN管脚的电压例如恒定为1.5V,此电压除以电阻器R125//R119的阻值,即设定为LED串221的电流。例如,电流设定为160mA。
电压控制模组230可例如是背光驱动集成电路(integrated circuit, IC),其包括有多个管脚。电压控制模组230的DRV管脚耦接到第一MOS晶体管214的栅极,用于向第一MOS晶体管214的栅极提供控制升压电路210的驱动信号(即上述的导通信号或截止信号)。电压控制模组230的ISW管脚耦接到第一MOS晶体管214的源极和第二电阻器250之间,用于检测升压电路210的电流,并根据检测到的升压电路210的电流(即电阻器250与升压电路210之间的电流),或者用于侦测升压电路210的过流保护电压(第一MOS晶体管214的源极和电阻器250之间的电压) 。使得在升压电路210的电流急剧增加并超过所述参考电流时,采样电路240产生使电压控制模组230停止工作的控制信号,进而使电压控制模组230停止工作,避免整个电路中的电流过大而烧毁电路中的组件。换句话说,当侦测到的所述过流保护电压超过保护电压(电压控制模组230内设的电压)时,电压控制模组230停止工作。
当电压控制模组230的过压保护输入管脚OVP的电压大于保护电压(电压控制模组230内设的电压)时,DRV管脚输出低电平,电压控制模组230停止工作。当电压控制模组230的过压保护输入管脚OVP的电压小于保护电压(电压控制模组230内设的电压)时,电压控制模组230回复到正常工作模式。
电压控制模组230的开机使能信号管脚ENA (即电压控制模组230的使能端)耦接到采样电路240,其中,当输入到ENA管脚的电平信号为高电平信号时,电压控制模组230正常工作,而当输入到ENA管脚的电平信号为低电平信号时,电压控制模组230停止工作。
在本实施例中,第一控制信号可为低电平信号,第二控制信号可为高电平信号,但本揭示不局限于此。
