- FIG. 3 shows an example of a schematic diagram of a light source driving circuit 300, in an embodiment according to the present invention.
- the light source driving circuit 300 includes a rectifier (e.g., a bridge rectifier) 304 coupled to an AC power source 320 through an illuminated switch 302.
- the illuminated switch 302 can be installed, for example, in a wall; the switch can be used to control lights in a home, for example.
- the illuminated switch 302 includes an illuminating indicator, e.g., an LED 306 as shown in FIG. 3 , or another type of light source such as a neon lamp.
- the LED 306 is coupled to a resistor R2 in series.
- the illuminated switch 302 further includes a power switch Q1 coupled between the AC power source 320 and the rectifier 304.
- the power switch Q1 is analogous to an on/off switch that can be installed, for example, in a wall of a home.
- the power switch Q1 is also coupled in parallel with the LED 306 and the resistor R2. Power is transferred from the AC power source 320 to the rectifier 304 if the power switch Q1 is in the on position. If the power switch Q1 is in the off position, then a current flows from the AC power source 320 through a current path to ground.
- the current path can include the resistor R2, the LED 306, the rectifier 304, the resistor R10, the inductor L1 and the resistor R8. Accordingly, the LED 306 is turned on, which allows a user to locate the switch 302 in the dark.
- the light source driving circuit 300 includes a power converter 310 that receives input power from the rectifier 304 and provides output power to a light source (e.g., an LED string 312).
- the power converter 310 includes a switch Q2, an inductor L1 and a diode D1.
- a dimming controller 308 is coupled to the power converter 310 and is operable for receiving a switch monitoring signal indicative of the position or state of the power switch Q1.
- the position or state of the power switch Q1 is selected from a group that includes an on position (the switch is "on” or "turned on”) and an off position (the switch is "off" or "turned off”).
- the dimming controller 308 can adjust an average current flowing through the LED string 312 based on the switch monitoring signal so as to control dimming of the LED string 312. Furthermore, the dimming controller 308 is coupled to the current path described above which includes the resistor R2, the LED 306, the rectifier 304, the resistor R10, the inductor L1 and the resistor R8. Therefore, the dimming controller 308 remains powered on when the power switch Q1 is off.
- the light source driving circuit 300 further includes a current sensor R1 that provides a current monitoring signal ISEN (shown in FIG. 4 ) indicating an amount of current flowing through the LED string 312.
- terminals of the dimming controller 308 can include CLK, RT, COMP, VDD, CS, DRV and GND.
- the monitoring terminal CLK is coupled to the rectifier 304 through a resistor R3, and is coupled to reference ground of the controller 308 through a resistor R6.
- the monitoring terminal CLK can receive a switch monitoring signal indicating the state or position of the power switch Q1.
- the state or position of the power switch Q1 is selected from a group that includes on and off.
- the switch monitoring signal can be generated at a common node between the resistor R3 and the resistor R6.
- the terminal RT is coupled to reference ground of the driving circuit 300 through a resistor R7.
- the resistance of the resistor R7 determines a charging current of a capacitor (not shown in FIG. 3 ) in the dimming controller 308 and in turn determines a frequency of a pulse signal generated by the dimming controller 308.
- the power terminal VDD is coupled to the AC power source 320 through the rectifier 304 and the illuminated switch 302, and supplies power to the dimming controller 308.
- the power terminal VDD receives power from the AC power source 320 through the rectifier 304 and the power switch Q1 when the power switch Q1 is on, and receives power from the AC power source 320 through the rectifier 304 and the illuminated indicator (e.g., the LED 306) when the power switch Q1 is off.
- the control terminal DRV is coupled to the switch Q2.
- the dimming controller 308 is operable for providing a control signal based on the switch monitoring signal to control the switch Q2 via the terminal CTRL, to adjust the average current flowing through the LED string 312.
- the terminal CS is coupled to the current sensor R1, and receives a current monitoring signal indicating a current flowing through the LED string 312.
- the terminal COMP is coupled to reference ground of the dimming controller 308 through a capacitor.
- the terminal GND is coupled to reference ground of the dimming controller 308.
- VDD_ON there can be three predetermined threshold voltages for the dimming controller 308: VDD_ON, VDD_OFF and VDD_RESET. If the voltage at the terminal VDD is greater than VDD_ON (e.g., 15 V), then the dimming controller 308 is powered on, and controls the switch Q2 to turn on the LED string 312 and regulates an average current of the LED string 312. If the voltage at the terminal VDD decreases from a level above VDD_ON to a level below VDD_OFF (e.g., 9 V), the dimming controller turns off the switch Q2 to turn off the LED string 312.
- VDD_ON e.g. 15 V
- VDD_OFF e.g. 9 V
- VDD_RESET e.g. 4 V
- the light source driving circuit 300 is configured such that when the power switch Q1 is off, the voltage at the terminal VDD is greater than VDD_RESET and less than VDD_ON such that the dimming controller 308 remains powered on while the LED string 312 is turned off.
- the rectifier 304 converts an input AC voltage V AC to a rectified voltage V REC .
- the voltage at the terminal VDD increases above VDD_ON.
- the dimming controller 308 is powered on and controls the switch Q2. If the dimming controller 308 turns on the switch Q2, the rectified voltage V REC powers the LED string 312 and charges the inductor L1. A current flows through the switch Q2, the current sensor R1, the inductor L1, and the LED string 312 to ground. If the dimming controller 308 turns off the switch Q2, a current flows through the inductor L1, the LED string 312 and the diode D1. The inductor L1 discharges to power the LED string 312. As such, by controlling the state of the switch Q2, the dimming controller 308 can adjust the regulated power from the power converter 310 and the average current flowing through the LED string 312.
- a current flows from the AC power source 320 through a current path to the ground of the driving circuit 300.
- the current path can include the resistor R2, the LED 306, the rectifier 304, the resistor R10, the reference ground of the controller 308, the inductor L1 and the resistor R8.
- the dimming controller 308 is coupled to the current path via the terminal VDD and therefore can be powered on when the power switch Q1 is off.
- FIG. 4 shows an example of a structure of the dimming controller 308 in FIG. 3 , in an embodiment according to the present invention.
- FIG. 5 illustrates an example of a diagram illustrating an operation of the light source driving circuit 300, in an embodiment according to the present invention.
- FIG. 6 illustrates examples of signal waveforms associated with the light source driving circuit 300, in an embodiment according to the present invention.
- FIG. 4 is described in combination with FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 .
- the dimming controller 308 includes a start up and under voltage lockout (UVL) circuit 402, a timer 404, a trigger monitoring unit 406, a reference signal generator 408, a saw-tooth oscillator 410, a pulse signal generator 412, a filter 414, an amplifier 416, a comparator 418 and a control signal generator 420.
- the filter 414 can be outside of the dimming controller 308.
- the start up and under voltage lockout circuit 402 is coupled to the terminal VDD, and selectively turns on one or more components of the dimming controller 308 according to different conditions, e.g., according to the voltage at the terminal VDD and the three predetermined threshold voltages VDD_ON, VDD_OFF and VDD_RESET.
- the trigger monitoring unit 406 can receive a switch monitoring signal indicating the state or position of the power switch Q1 through terminal CLK and can generate a driving signal to control the timer 404 accordingly.
- the timer 404 measures a time period between the time at which the power switch Q1 is turned off and the next time at which the power switch is turned on.
- the reference signal generator 408 is coupled to the timer 404 and can generate a reference signal ADJ based on an output of the timer.
- the filter 414 is coupled to the current sensor R1 through the terminal CS, receives the current monitoring signal ISEN, and generates a sensing signal IAVG indicating the average current flowing through the LED string 312 based on the current monitoring signal ISEN.
- the amplifier 416 generates an error signal VEA by comparing the reference signal ADJ with the sensing signal IAVG.
- the saw-tooth oscillator 410 generates a saw-tooth signal SAW under control of the pulse signal generator 412.
- the comparator 418 compares the saw-tooth signal SAW with the error signal VEA.
- the control signal generator 420 generates a control signal (e.g., a pulse-width modulation signal) PWM1 to control the switch Q2 (shown in FIG. 3 ) based on the output of the comparator 418 and a pulse signal RESET generated by the pulse signal generator 412.
- FIG. 5 shows the state of the power switch Q1, the voltage at the terminal CLK of the dimming controller 308 (e.g., the voltage across the resistor R6) and the state of the reference signal ADJ.
- the reference signal generator 408 When, for example, the power switch Q1 is turned on for the first time (not shown in FIG. 5 ), the reference signal generator 408 generates the reference signal ADJ having a first value. Accordingly, an average current of the LED string 312 has a first level.
- a voltage across the resistor R6 drops to zero; therefore, a switch monitoring signal indicating that the power switch Q1 is off can be detected by the dimming controller 308 through the terminal CLK.
- the trigger monitoring unit 406 is configured to generate a driving signal to start the timer 404 if the voltage at the terminal CLK has been less than a voltage level V T1 (e.g., 3 V) for a time period TEN (e.g., 30 ms) and to stop the timer 404 if the voltage at the terminal CLK increases to a voltage level V T2 .
- V T1 e.g. 3 V
- TEN e.g., 30 ms
- the length of the time period between the time when the power switch Q1 is turned off and the next time the power switch is turned on can be measured.
- the time period T1 between the time when the power switch Q1 is turned off (labeled "first turn-off') and the next time it is turned on (labeled "second turn-on") is less than a predetermined time period T ST .
- the reference signal generator 408 adjusts the reference signal ADJ from a first level to a second level in response to the second turn-on. Accordingly, the average current of the LED string 312 is adjusted from the first value to a second value which is less than the first value, in response to the second turn-on.
- the average current of the LED string 312 is adjusted from the first value to a second value which is greater than the first value in response to the second turn-on.
- the time period T2 between the next time the power switch Q1 is turned off (labeled "second turn-off') and then turned back on (labeled "third turn-on") is greater than the predetermined time period T ST .
- the reference signal generator 408 maintains the reference signal ADJ unchanged and therefore the average current of the LED string 312 is unchanged.
- the amplifier 416 generates the error signal VEA based on the reference signal ADJ and the sensing signal IAVG.
- the dimming controller 308 in FIG. 3 is configured to have two dimming levels. After being adjusted to the second level, the reference signal ADJ will be adjusted from the second level back to the first level if the power switch Q1 is turned off and turned on again and the time period between the turn-off and the turn-on is less than the predetermined time period T ST . In another embodiment, the dimming controller 308 is configured to have three or more levels. The reference signal ADJ will be adjusted to go through each level and then back to the first level if the power switch Q1 is repeatedly turned off and on and each time period between a turn-off and a next turn-on is less than the predetermined time period T ST .
- the control signal generator 420 generates the pulse-width modulation signal PWM1 having a first level (e.g., logic 1) to turn on the switch Q2 in response to a pulse of the pulse signal RESET.
- a first level e.g., logic 1
- the switch Q2 is turned on, the current monitoring signal ISEN increases.
- the saw-tooth signal SAW generated by the saw-tooth signal generator 410 starts to increase from an initial level INI in response to a pulse of the pulse signal RESET.
- the control signal generator 420 When the voltage of the saw-tooth signal SAW increases to the voltage of the error signal VEA, the control signal generator 420 generates the pulse-width modulation signal PWM1 having a second level (e.g., logic 0) to turn off the switch Q2 such that the current monitoring signal ISEN decreases.
- the saw-tooth signal SAW is reset to the initial level INI until the next pulse of the pulse signal RESET is received by the saw-tooth signal generator 606.
- the saw-tooth signal SAW starts to increase from the initial level INI again in response to the next pulse.
- a duty cycle of the pulse-width modulation signal PWM1 is determined by the error signal VEA. If the voltage of the sensing signal IAVG is less than the voltage of the reference signal ADJ, then the amplifier 416 increases the voltage of the error signal VEA so as to increase the duty cycle of the pulse-width modulation signal PWM1. Accordingly, the average current flowing through the LED string 312 increases until the voltage of the sensing signal IAVG reaches the voltage of the reference signal ADJ. If the voltage of the sensing signal IAVG is greater than the voltage of the reference signal ADJ, then the amplifier 416 decreases the voltage of the error signal VEA so as to decrease the duty cycle of the pulse-width modulation signal PWM1.
- the average current flowing through the LED string 312 decreases until the voltage of the signal IAVG drops to the voltage of the reference signal ADJ.
- the average current flowing through the LED string 312 can be maintained to be substantially equal to a target current level which is determined by the reference signal ADJ.
- the pulse signal generator 412 is coupled to ground through terminal RT and the resistor R7 and generates the pulse signal RESET, which can turn on the switch Q2.
- the frequency of the pulse signal RESET is determined by the resistance of the resistor R7.
- the dimming controller 308 is turned off and the reference signal ADJ will be set to a default level (e.g., the first level) after the dimming controller 308 is turned on again.

- FIG. 7 is described in combination with FIG. 3 .
- a light source e.g., the LED string 312

- a power switch e.g., a power switch Q1 coupled between an AC power source 320 and a rectifier 304 of the light source driving circuit 300
- a timer 404 is started in response to the power switch Q1 being turned off.
- the flowchart 700 goes to block 710; otherwise, the flowchart 700 goes back to block 702 such that the brightness of the LED string 312 remains at the first level.
- the brightness of the LED string 312 is adjusted from the first level to a second level.
- the power switch Q1 is turned off again.
- the timer 404 is started again, in response to the power switch Q1 being turned off in block 712.
- block 716 if the power switch Q1 is turned on within a predetermined time period T ST after being turned off in block 712, as measured by the timer 404, then the flowchart 700 goes to block 702 to adjust the brightness of the LED string 312 from the second level to the first level; otherwise, the flowchart 700 goes back to block 710 such that the brightness of the LED string 312 remains at the second level.
- FIG. 8 shows another flowchart 800 of a method for adjusting power of a light source, in an embodiment according to the present invention.
- FIG. 8 is described in combination with FIG. 3 .
- a light source e.g., an LED string 312
- a switch monitoring signal indicative of the state or position of a power switch Q1 that transfers power from an AC power source 320 to the rectifier 304 is received by a dimming controller 308.
- the state or position of the power switch Q1 is selected from a group that includes on and off.
- an average current flowing through the light source is regulated by the dimming controller 308 at a first value if the power switch Q1 is turned on.
- a time period between the time when the power switch Q1 is then turned off and the next time the power switch is turned on is measured by a timer 404.
- the average current flowing through the light source is adjusted by the dimming controller 308 based on the switch monitoring signal and the length of the time period measured in block 808. In one embodiment, the average current flowing through the light source is adjusted from the first value to a second value if the time period is less than a predetermined time period, while the average current is maintained at the first value if the time period is greater than the predetermined time period.
- embodiments according to the present invention provide a light source driving circuit that can adjust power of a light source according to a switch monitoring signal indicative of an operation of a power switch, e.g., an illuminated on/off switch with an illuminated indicator.
- a power switch e.g., an illuminated on/off switch with an illuminated indicator.
- users can adjust the light output of the light source through operation of the power switch. Therefore, extra components for dimming, such as an external dimmer or a specially designed switch with adjusting buttons, can be avoided and costs can be reduced.
- the dimming controller in the light source driving circuit can still be powered on even if the power switch is off due to a current enabled by the illuminated indicator. Therefore, the dimming controller can change the brightness of the light source or memorize the brightness of the light source if the power switch is turned off and then turned on again, depending on the length of the time period between the turn-off and turn-on.
