Description

Switch buck type LED constant current control circuit, system and method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of LED constant current control, in particular to a switching buck type LED constant current control circuit, system and method.
Background
The traditional switch buck LED controller adopts a peak current detection mode with fixed clock frequency, is influenced by inductive ripples, and has poor current precision on an output LED light-emitting unit; and when external power supply and load change, need adjust inductance value to guarantee that output inductor current work in continuous conduction mode, the selection of inductance value influences the precision and the ripple of LED electric current.
In a traditional LED control scheme, after a power supply VDD is electrified, a current detection sampling signal is compared with a reference voltage to generate a charging end signal, the charging end signal and a clock signal are controlled by a PWM logic to generate a logic control signal, and then the logic control signal is driven by an output front stage to generate a grid electrode driving signal of an external power device, so that the power device is controlled to be turned on and off to control the current (current peak value and ripple) on an external LED light-emitting unit.
The driving sequence of the continuous conduction mode is shown in fig. 1, after the power supply VDD is powered on, the internal driving circuit starts to work, the internal PWM logic controls the external inductor to periodically charge and discharge, and the corresponding current I _ LED flows through the external LED light emitting unit. Amplifying one PWM period, and the time sequence is shown in FIG. 2: in a fixed PWM period (for example, the fixed clock period may be set to 7us), the gate driving signal DRV is first set to a logic high level, the power device is turned on, the inductor current is charged, the level of the feedback signal CS slowly rises to the reference voltage VREF, when the charge end signal DISCHARGE is detected to be high, DRV becomes a logic low level, the power device is turned off, and the inductor current is discharged.
In a continuous conduction mode: the peak value of the output current I _ LED is: and Ipeak is VREF/R _ sense, wherein Ipeak is the peak current, and R _ sense is the resistance value of the sampling resistor. The ripple of the I _ LED is: Δ i ═ VLEDToff/L, wherein VLEDL is inductance and Toff is fixed discharge time, which is the voltage drop across the LED lighting unit. Due to the buck LED controller, the fixed discharge time Toff is determined by the voltage drop V across the LED lighting unitLEDThe input voltage Vin and the PWM period T determine: toff ═ 1-VLED/Vin)*TTherefore: Δ i ═ VLED*(1-VLEDVin) T/L, the accuracy of the output current I _ LED is affected by the peak value Ipeak and the ripple Δ I.
In order to ensure constant output current, a proper inductance value is adopted to ensure that the loop works in a continuous conduction mode, and the calculation formula of the minimum inductance value is as follows: l1>VLED*(1-VLEDand/Vin) T R _ sense/VREF, where Δ i is equal to Ipeak is equal to VREF/R _ sense, and the output operates in the critical continuous conduction mode. To achieve better current accuracy, it is necessary to ensure that the ripple of the inductor current is small, for example, Δ i is set to 40% Ipeak, and the inductance is increased to: l1>2.5*VLED*(1-VLEDV Vin) T R sense/VREF. If the external inductance is set to be small, the discontinuous conduction mode is easy to enter, and the ripple and the precision of the I _ LED are affected at the moment.
The conventional LED control loop has a fixed frequency, and in order to ensure the accuracy of the output current, it is necessary to ensure that the controller operates in a continuous conduction mode. When the external inductor is small or the set output I _ LED current is small, loads such as Vin, an LED light-emitting unit and the like are changed, the mode is easy to enter a discontinuous conduction mode, and the output current precision is affected. Therefore, how to ensure that the LED control loop is not affected by the input voltage and the LED light emitting unit, etc., to improve the output current accuracy and reduce the output ripple has become one of the problems to be solved by those skilled in the art.

The subtractor 114a3 is connected to the output terminals of the oscillator 114a1, the adder 114a2 and the peak current comparison module 112, and subtracts the count result of the adder 114a2 from n by subtracting 1 one by one, and the current detection sampling signal Vcs continues to increase until the count result of the adder 114a2 gradually decreases from n to 0 again, so that the time when the current detection sampling signal Vcs is greater than the average reference Vref1 is also the first time. If the current detection sampling signal Vcs is always smaller than the peak reference Vref2, the On signal On is controlled to fail when the subtraction result is zero, and the On signal becomes a low level; with the increase of the current detection sampling signal Vcs, if the current detection sampling signal Vcs is larger than the peak reference Vref2, the subtraction operation is stopped, and when the current detection sampling signal Vcs is larger than the peak reference Vref2, the On signal On is directly controlled to be invalid. The output of the average current comparison module 111 controls the upper and lower deviation values of the current detection sampling signal Vcs and the average reference voltage Vref1 to be equal, so that constant current output is realized. The output of the peak current comparing module 112 controls the maximum On time of the On signal On, if the current detection sampling signal Vcs is higher than the peak reference Vref2, the output of the peak current comparing module 112 generates a high level pulse, the subtractor 114a3 stops working immediately, and the On signal On is changed to a logic low level after being ended in advance.
More specifically, the logic control signal generation unit receives the On signal On and the Off end signal Off and generates the logic control signal Predrv. When the On signal On is valid, the logic control signal Predrv controls the power switch tube in the buck LED circuit to be turned On, when the On signal On is invalid, the logic control signal Predrv controls the power switch tube to be turned Off, and when the Off end signal Off is valid, the logic control signal Predrv controls the power switch tube to be turned On again.

As shown in fig. 8, the present embodiment provides a switching buck LED constant current control system 1, where the switching buck LED constant current control system 1 includes: a switch buck LED constant current control circuit 11 and a buck LED circuit 12.
As shown in fig. 8, the switching buck LED constant current control circuit 11 receives a current detection sampling signal of the buck LED circuit 12, and outputs a driving signal of the buck LED circuit.
Specifically, the circuit structure and the working principle of the switch buck-type LED constant current control circuit 11 are the same as those of the switch buck-type LED constant current control circuit in the first embodiment or the second embodiment, which are not repeated herein.
As shown in fig. 8, the buck LED circuit 12 obtains a stable output based on the control of the switching buck LED constant current control circuit 11.
Specifically, the buck LED circuit 12 includes an LED light emitting module 121, an inductor L, a freewheeling diode D, a power switch Q, and a sampling module 122. The anode of the LED light emitting module 121 is connected to an input power Vin, and the cathode is connected to one end of the inductor L.

The connection node between the power switch Q and the sampling module 122 outputs the current detection sampling signal Vcs, and in this embodiment, the sampling module 122 is implemented by a sampling resistor.
Example four
As shown in fig. 9 to 12, in this embodiment, the switching step-down LED constant current control method according to the present invention is described based on the switching step-down LED constant current control system 1 described in the third embodiment, and in practical use, any hardware circuit or software code according to the switching step-down LED constant current control method according to the present invention is applicable, and is not limited to the example of this embodiment. The switching step-down LED constant current control method comprises the following steps:
monitoring a current detection sampling signal Vcs of the buck LED circuit 12, outputting an effective On signal at a first time when the current detection sampling signal Vcs rises to the average reference Vref1 and a first time when the current detection sampling signal Vcs exceeds the average reference Vref1 in a period, and then failing to be the On signal, wherein if the current detection sampling signal Vcs is greater than the peak reference Vref2, the On signal is failed;
decreasing a turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off when the current detection sampling signal Vcs is greater than the peak reference Vref2, increasing the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off when the current detection sampling signal Vcs is less than the peak reference Vref2, comparing a preset charging signal RC with the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off, generating the turn-Off end signal Off when the preset charging signal RC is greater than the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off;
and adjusting a driving signal Drv of the power switch tube Q based On the On signal On and the Off end signal Off to realize constant current output and control the ripple of the output current.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 9, in the initial state, the power switch Q is turned On, the On signal On is at a high level (active), the current detection sampling signal Vcs is smaller than the average reference Vref1, and at this time, the adder 114a2 starts to operate, and starts to count slowly from 0. The current detection sampling signal Vcs gradually increases as the inductor L is charged. When the current detection sampling signal Vcs reaches the average reference Vref1, the first comparison result Cp1 outputs a high level, the adder 114a2 stops working, the counting result is n, and the product of the counting result n and the basic clock generated by the oscillator 114a1 is the first time Δ T; at the same time, the subtracter 114a3 starts to operate, and the subtracter 114a3 subtracts the counting result n. In the initial stage, since the current detection sampling signal Vcs rises faster, when the subtractor 114a3 does not count to zero (the subtraction time is less than the first time Δ T), the current detection sampling signal Vcs is already greater than the peak reference Vref2, at this time, the second comparison result Cp2 outputs a high level, the On signal On jumps to a low level (failure), the power switch Q is controlled to be On when the On signal On is at the high level, and the power switch Q is controlled to be off when the On signal On is at the low level. As the current detection sampling signal Vcs is adjusted in multiple cycles, the rising speed of the current detection sampling signal Vcs is slowed down, the subtraction time approaches to the first time Δ T until the balance is reached, at this time, since the current detection sampling signal Vcs is always smaller than the peak reference Vref2, the subtracter 114a3 slowly counts from the counting result n back to 0, then the On signal On transitions to a low level, and the counting result n of the subtracter 114a3 multiplied by the basic clock is also Δ T. The upper and lower deviation values of the current detection sampling signal Vcs and the average reference Vref1 are equal, so that the average current value of the output current I _ LED is as follows: iaverage is Vref1/Rcs, where Rcs is the resistance of the sampling module 122.
Specifically, when the On signal On is at a low level, the adaptive clock generating module 113 starts to operate, and generates a corresponding Off end signal Off. As shown in fig. 10, if it is detected that the second comparison result Cp2 outputs a high level (a high level pulse is output) in one PWM period, the inverted logic signal LS of the second comparison result Cp2 is a low level pulse, when the driving signal Drv transitions to a low level, the pulse signal pulse (in this embodiment, the reference value is set to 300ns) arrives, the pull-Down control signal Down transitions to a high level, the pull-Down transistor MN is controlled to be turned on, and the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off is discharged and decreased until the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off is maintained when the pull-Down control signal Down transitions to a low level. As shown in fig. 11, if the second comparison result Cp2 is not detected (no high level pulse is output) in one PWM period, the inverted logic signal LS of the second comparison result Cp2 is always kept at a high level, when the driving signal Drv transitions to a low level, the pulse signal pulse comes, the pull-Up control signal Up transitions to a low level, the pull-Up transistor MP is controlled to be turned on, and the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off is charged Up until the pull-Up control signal Up transitions to a high level, the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off is kept. And comparing the preset charging signal RC with the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off, wherein the preset charging signal RC is a triangular wave signal, the charging is started when the turn-On signal On is invalid, the preset charging signal RC is gradually increased, and the turn-Off finishing signal Off is valid when the preset charging signal RC is greater than the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off, so that the power switch tube Q is controlled to be turned On again. As shown in fig. 12, after the power supply VDD is powered on, the first switch S1 is turned on first, the bias voltage Vbias provides an initial potential (in this embodiment, the reference value is 3V) to the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off first, and then the first switch S1 is turned Off. At this time, the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off is higher in potential, the turn-Off (low level) time Toff in the driving signal Drv is longer, meanwhile, the turn-on (high level) time Ton in the driving signal Drv is also longer, the charging current of the inductor L rises quickly, the peak current comparing module 112 is triggered to generate a high level pulse, the pull-Down control signal Down pulls Down the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off, and the turn-Off reference signal Ref _ Off gradually falls; when the output current I _ LED tends to be stable, the output of the peak current comparing module 112 no longer has a high level, and in order to avoid the shutdown reference signal Ref _ Off from decreasing due to the discharge of the first charging capacitor C1, the pull-Up control signal Up pulls Up the shutdown reference signal Ref _ Off at this time, so as to ensure that the shutdown reference signal Ref _ Off is always stable at a constant value. In the adaptive adjustment process, the period of the Off end signal Off is gradually reduced, and finally, the fixed discharge time Toff is realized, and the optimization of both inductance precision and ripple is realized.
The current detection sampling signal Vcs and the peak reference Vref2 are sent to the input terminal of the peak current comparison module 112, the output of the peak current comparison module 112 is sent to the PWM logic control module 114, meanwhile, the current detection sampling signal Vcs and the average reference voltage Vref1 are also sent to the input terminal of the average current comparison module 111, the output of the average current comparison module 111 is also sent to the PWM logic control module 114, and the On signal On is generated through counting control. When the On signal On is high, the driving signal Drv is high, and the external power switch tube Q is turned On; when the On signal On is low, the driving signal Drv is low, the external power switch tube Q is turned Off, and the adaptive clock generating module 113 is enabled, the adaptive clock generating module 113 outputs and generates a corresponding Off end signal Off, and the On signal On and the Off end signal Off are added together to realize one PWM period.
As an implementation manner of the present invention, the switching step-down LED constant current control method further includes: monitoring the current detection sampling signal Vcs, and turning off the power switch tube Q when the current detection sampling signal Vcs is larger than a short-circuit protection reference Vref3, wherein the short-circuit protection reference Vref3 is larger than the peak reference Vref 2.
As another implementation manner of the present invention, the switching buck LED constant current control method further includes: the values of the average reference Vref1 and the peak reference Vref2 are adjusted based on a dimming control signal DIM to achieve dimming control.
As shown in fig. 13, which is an input/output timing diagram of the switching buck LED constant current control circuit, system and method of the present invention, it can be seen that when the power supply VDD is powered on, the internal of the constant current control circuit is adaptively adjusted, and the constant current control circuit transitions from the discontinuous conduction mode to the continuous conduction mode, so as to achieve high accuracy and small ripple of the output current I _ LED on the LED light emitting unit. Fig. 13 is enlarged, the waveform in the discontinuous conduction mode before the output current I _ LED is stabilized is as shown in fig. 14, the average reference Vref1 is set to 200mV, the time of the incomplete adder before stabilization is consistent with that of the subtractor, the output of the peak current comparison module is detected when the subtractor operates, the conduction signal On is changed to a logic low level in advance, and the driving signal Drv is turned off to enter the inductance discharge stage. Fig. 13 is enlarged, waveforms in the continuous conduction mode after the output current I _ LED is stabilized are as shown in fig. 15, time matching between the adder and the subtractor is realized after stabilization, upper and lower deviation values of the current detection sampling signal Vcs and the average reference Vref1(200mV) are equal, and finally high accuracy and small ripple of the output current are realized.
