With reference first to Fig. 2, include the load driver 101 with multiple-channel output according to the load driver 100 of the present invention, I.e. this load driver have multiple outfan CH1, CH2 ..., CHn.In the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 Between be connected with switching device 102, for the feelings unloaded at least one of the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 Connect under condition.
In other words, for example, when the first outfan CH1 zero load the second outfan CH2 is connected to load, switching device 102 will Outfan CH1 and CH2 links together, so that the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 is connected in parallel, the first output The voltage of end CH1 is clamped by the second outfan CH2.So, even if the first outfan CH1 is unloaded, its voltage also will not too high and Triggering overvoltage protection, thus proof load driver 100 can be with normal work.That is, by above-mentioned configuration, so that need not be same When using multiple-channel output load driver 101 all outputs.
In addition, though in figure illustrate only switching device 102 be connected to the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 it Between, but it should be appreciated by those skilled in the art, as needed, switching device 102 can also be connected to other outfans it Between.
The configuration of switching device 102 according to an embodiment of the invention is described referring to Fig. 3.As shown in figure 3, opening Close device 102 and include unloaded detection part 201 and switch 202.Wherein, unloaded detection part 201 is used for detection switch device 102 Two outfans (for example, first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2) being connected whether there is no-load condition.If empty Carry detection part 201 zero load of at least one of two outfans is detected, then produce for make switch 202 close signal from And so that switch 202 is automatically closed.Switch 202 after closure is short-circuit by the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2, so that Obtain unloaded outfan to be also connected to load, jointly provide load current by two outfans.
Fig. 4 shows the schematic circuit of load driver according to an embodiment of the invention.In the diagram, bear Carry as LED, the driver being adopted is that have the single-stage inverse-excitation type pfc circuit of multiple-channel output.Single-stage inverse-excitation type pfc circuit includes Controller U1 and DC-to-dc (DC-DC) changer T1.There are multiple secondary coils in the primary side of DC-DC converter T1, respectively Corresponding to multiple-channel output.Wherein, the output of coil Ns1 is couple to the first outfan CH1 by diode D1, and the first outfan CH1 is grounded by capacitor C1.Resistor Rs1 is used for sensing from the first outfan to the electric current of load output, as controller The feed back input of U1.There is identical to configure for the second outfan CH2, repeat no more.
It should be noted that " coupling " used herein is defined as representing not any between two or more circuit objects Insert being directly connected to of circuit object, and by one or more insertion circuit objects between two or more circuit objects That realizes is indirectly connected with.For example, two circuit objects being connected to each other directly are referred to as " coupling " each other.Two same circuit If object is connected with one or more insertion circuit objects therebetween, also referred to as " couple " each other.
In the diagram, the first outfan and the second outfan pass through to switch K connection.It should be noted that switch K herein is to illustrate Property, in practice can be using any part or the device with switching function.
As described above, for example when the first outfan CH1 is unloaded and the second outfan CH2 is connected with load, switch K closes Close.First outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 is connected in parallel, and load current is in the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan Equally distribute between internal circuit corresponding to CH2.Coil Ns1 and diode D1 is in parallel with coil Ns2 and diode D2 even Connect, therefore equivalent total internal driving is about the half of single channel output, thus improve the efficiency of driver.To greatest extent simultaneously Make use of circuit block.
Based on described above, this driver can in the case of various load combinations normal work, but regardless of two-way is defeated Still only one tunnel output is connected to load to go out all to be connected to load.
A road is output as operation principle during zero load wherein to describe the driver of Fig. 4 in detail referring to Fig. 5.Fig. 5 is The schematic circuit of the load driver of the detailed configuration showing switching device according to an embodiment of the invention.
Show in detail a kind of specific embodiment of switching device in Figure 5.Switching device includes unloaded detection part With switch TR1.Unloaded detection part includes operational amplifier U3_A, operational amplifier U3_B and switch driver.Switch TR1 can Think TRIAC.
As shown in figure 5, the inverting input of operational amplifier U3_B passes through resistor R3 and corresponding diode D4 respectively It is coupled to the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2.
The output voltage Vo_CH2 of the output voltage Vo_CH1 of the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 passes through by electricity The bleeder circuit of resistance device R3 and R4 composition carries out the inverting input that the voltage that partial pressure obtains is applied to operational amplifier U3_B.Fortune The in-phase input end calculating amplifier U3_B connects to reference voltage V ref4.Thus, operational amplifier U3_B is used as voltage ratio relatively Device, is configured to by first voltage V1 of the output voltage corresponding to the first outfan CH1 with corresponding to the second outfan CH2's Second voltage V2 of output voltage and reference voltage V ref4 are compared, and are higher than benchmark in first voltage V1 or second voltage V2 During voltage Vref4, operational amplifier U3_B exports low voltage level.
Additionally, the outfan of operational amplifier U3_B connects to the inverting input of operational amplifier U3_A, put in computing During big device U3_B output low voltage level, the operational amplifier U3_A output HIGH voltage level as voltage comparator.
The outfan of operational amplifier U3_A connects to switch driver, and switch driver connects to triode ac switch Switch element TR1.When operational amplifier U3_A output HIGH voltage level, switch driver amplifies this signal trigger switch TR1 connects.Thus, the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 are connected in parallel, and the load current of LED is carried jointly by both For.
In other words, when the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 is respectively connected with load, above-mentioned driver is operated in Under normal condition, switching device is off, and circuit is no affected.When the first outfan CH1 zero load the second outfan When CH2 is connected to load, the output voltage Vo_CH1 of the first outfan CH1 is made to become very due to the characteristic of current transformer High.When Vo_CH1 reaches certain value such as Vo_max, the voltage on resistor R4 becomes to be above Vref4, operational amplifier U3_ B export low voltage level, thus electric current flows through photo-coupler OT1, OT1 by this signal back controller U1 to adjust defeated Go out voltage.
In said circumstances, the inverting input of operational amplifier U3_A is low voltage level, less than in-phase input end Reference voltage V ref3, so operational amplifier U3_A output HIGH voltage level, and switch driver amplifies this signal to trigger out Close TR1 to connect.After switch TR1 connects, the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 short circuit, so that the first output The voltage Vo_CH1 of end CH1 is approximately equal to the voltage Vo_CH2 of the second outfan CH2, and the two is respectively less than maximum output voltage Vo_max.That is, the final normal work of driver, and because the first outfan CH1 and the second outfan CH2 is actually connected in parallel Circuit internal driving is about halved, therefore drive efficiency improves.
In the same manner, when the first outfan CH1 is connected to load the second outfan CH2 is unloaded when, TR1 is also triggered connection, with Above-mentioned situation is identical, the final normal work of driver and improve efficiency because circuit internal driving halves.
In addition, in Figure 5, controller U1 is the LLC controller L 6599 of ST company.Wherein, the fortune of constant current feedback circuit The inverting input calculating amplifier U2_A and U2_B is respectively connecting to load current sensing end CH1_S and CH2_S, thus by resistance The load current of device Rs1 and Rs2 sensing feeds back to controller by operational amplifier U2_A and U2_B and photo-coupler OT1 respectively U1, to adjust output voltage.
Although showing a kind of specific embodiment of switching device in Fig. 5, can also have phase using others The replacement circuit of congenerous or module are realizing this switching device.In addition, carry out the choosing of practical devices according to the teachings of the present invention Select in the limit of power changing those skilled in the art with circuit structure.
In sum, load driver allows some outfans in multiple outfans empty according to an embodiment of the invention Carry, and improve the efficiency of driver.
