TFT LCD용 LED는 친환경적이고 색체 재현율이 높은 방향으로 기술이 더욱 발전되고 있으며, 시장에서는 이러한 LED을 요구하고 있다. LEDs for TFT LCDs are being further developed in an environment-friendly and high color reproducibility direction, and the market demands such LEDs.
종래의 정전류 구동회로는 스위치 소자에 흐르는 전류를 정전류 IC에서 감지하여 제어하는 방식으로, 대다수 정전류 IC의 경우 출력전압이 낮은 레벨에서 적용 가능하며, 높은 전압에 적용할 수 있는 소수의 정전류 IC의 경우 일반적으로 사용되는 정전압 IC에 비하여 상대적으로 고가인 경향이 있다.Conventional constant current driving circuits detect and control the current flowing through a switch element in a constant current IC. In the case of most constant current ICs, the output voltage is applicable at a low level, and in the case of a few constant current ICs that can be applied to a high voltage. It tends to be relatively expensive compared to the commonly used constant voltage ICs.
도1은 종래 기술에 의한 LCD 패널용 LED 드라이버의 정전류 구동회로를 도시하는 회로도이다.Fig. 1 is a circuit diagram showing a constant current drive circuit of a LED driver for an LCD panel according to the prior art.
일반적으로 LCD 패널용 LED 드라이버의 구동회로는 정전류 구동회로는 도 1과 같은 IC를 사용하고 있다. In general, the driving circuit of the LED driver for LCD panels uses the IC shown in FIG. 1 as the constant current driving circuit.
상기 정전류 IC를 이용한 LED 드라이버의 정전류 구동회로의 구성을 설명하면 다음과 같다. The configuration of the constant current driving circuit of the LED driver using the constant current IC is as follows.
LCD 패널용 LED 드라이버에서 정전류 구동을 구현하기 위하여, 입력부(1)는 정전류 IC(2)와 연결되어 있다. 상기 정전류 IC(2)의 입력단자들은 VIN, CS, LD, PWM_D로 구성되며, 출력단자는 RT, GATE, VDD, 및 GND로 구성되어 있다. VDD, LD 및 PWM_D 단자들은 콘덴서(C1)를 경유하여 접지되어 있다. 그리고 출력단자 RT는 저항(R1)을 경유하여 접지되어 있다. GATE 및 CS 단자는 저항(R2)을 경유하여 접지되어 있으며, GND 단자는 접지되어 있다. 입력단자(1)와 GATE 단자는 다이오드(3)를 경유하여 상호 연결되어 있다. 상기 다이오드(3)는 LED부(4)와 직렬로 연결되어 있다.In order to implement constant current driving in the LED driver for the LCD panel, the
상기와 같은 구성을 갖는 종래기술의 정전류 구동회로에서는, 정전류 IC를 이용하여 정전류 피드백 방식을 구성하여 LED 드라이버를 설계하고 있다. In the conventional constant current drive circuit having the above configuration, the LED driver is designed by configuring the constant current feedback method using the constant current IC.
상기와 같은 구성을 갖는 종래기술의 정전류 구동회로에서는, 정전류 IC를 이용하여 정전류 피드백 방식을 구성하여 LED 드라이버를 설계하고 있다. In the conventional constant current drive circuit having the above configuration, the LED driver is designed by configuring the constant current feedback method using the constant current IC.
그러나 현재 제품으로 출시되고 있는 정전류 IC의 경우, 사용할 수 있는 전압 레벨(출력전압)이 다양하지 못한 문제점이 있다. 시중에 나와 있는 정전류 IC의 경우, 대다수 출력전압이 낮은 화이트 LED나 병렬로 연결되어 낮은 출력전압만으로 동작이 가능한 LED들의 구동용이다. However, there is a problem in that the voltage level (output voltage) that can be used in the case of the constant current IC currently available in the product does not vary. Commercially available constant current ICs are designed to drive white LEDs with low output voltages or LEDs that can be operated in parallel with low output voltages.
한편, 정전압 IC를 채용한 컨버터 회로의 경우는 장시간 동작 시 열로 인한 LED 내부 저항 성분의 감소로 인하여, LED 전류가 감소하는 문제점이 있다. 상기와 같은 LED 전류의 감소로 인하여, 출력전류가 감소하는 관계로 저전류로 인한 LED 휘도가 감소하는 문제점이 있다.On the other hand, the converter circuit employing a constant voltage IC has a problem that the LED current is reduced due to the reduction of the LED internal resistance component due to heat during long time operation. Due to the reduction of the LED current as described above, there is a problem that the LED brightness due to the low current is reduced due to the decrease in the output current.

도3은 본 발명에 의한 LCD 패널의 LED 드라이버의 구동회로에서 정전류 IC를 도시하는 회로도이다.Fig. 3 is a circuit diagram showing a constant current IC in the driving circuit of the LED driver of the LCD panel according to the present invention.
이에 도시된 바와 같이, 본 발명에 의한 정전류 IC(30)는 Vin, N/C, Rext, PWM 입력단자들을 구비하며, 4개의 Iout 출력 단자들을 구비하고 있다. 여기서, Rext 입력단자는 전류 설정 포인트부(31)를 경유하여 4개의 Iout 출력단자와 각각 연결되어 있다. PWM 입력단자는 4개의 Iout 출력단자와 각각 연결되고, LED부(40)를 경유하여 접지되어 있다. Vin 입력단자는 저항(R1)을 경유하여 Rext 입력단자와 연결되어 있다. 저항(R1)과 Vin 입력단자의 접지는 콘덴서(C1)를 경유하여 접지되어 있다. Vin 입력단자는 전단의 정전압 컨버터(20)와 연결되는 입력부와 직렬로 연결되어 있다. As shown therein, the constant
이와 같이 구성된 본 발명은 정전압 컨버터(20)에 의하여 일정하게 제어된 출력전압이 입력부(33)로부터 입력되면, 입력된 전원은 정전류 IC(30)의 입력부 Vin을 통하여 입력됨과 동시에, 전류 설정 포인트부(31)의 Rext 단자로 입력된다. 상기와 같이 입력된 전원은 정전류 IC(30)의 전류 설정 포인트부(31)에 의하여 정전류 처리된다. 상기와 같이 정전류 처리된 전원은 정전류 IC(3)의 출력 단자들을 통하여 후단에 연결된 LED부(40)에 입력되어, 상기 LED부(40)가 발광하게 된다. According to the present invention configured as described above, when the output voltage constantly controlled by the
종래의 정전류 구동회로의 경우, 정전류 IC의 대다수가 출력전압이 낮은 레벨에서 적용 가능하며, 높은 전압에 적용할 수 있는 소수의 정전류 IC의 경우 일반적으로 사용되는 정전압 IC에 비하여 상대적으로 고가인 경향이 있다. 따라서, 보다 다양한 출력 전압 사양과 가격 면에서의 장점을 얻을 수 있는 회로 구성이다.In the case of the conventional constant current driving circuit, the majority of the constant current IC is applicable at a low level of the output voltage, and the few constant current ICs that can be applied to the high voltage tend to be relatively expensive compared to the commonly used constant voltage IC. have. Therefore, it is a circuit configuration that can obtain advantages in more various output voltage specifications and cost.
상기와 같은 구성과 작용에 따라, LED 드라이버의 장시간 구동시에도 정전류 조정 과장을 경유함으로서 LED 전류가 감소를 방지할 수 있다. 따라서, LED 전류를 방지함으로서, 저전류 문제가 발생하지 않음으로, LED 휘도가 감소하지 않는다.According to the configuration and operation as described above, even when the LED driver is driven for a long time, the LED current can be prevented from being reduced through the constant current adjustment exaggeration. Therefore, by preventing the LED current, the low current problem does not occur, so that the LED brightness does not decrease.
본 발명에서는, 보다 저가의 IC들을 이용하여 정정압 컨버터와 정전류 IC를 구성하여, 종래 기술과 비교하여 보다 간단하고 저렴한 비용으로 저전류에 따를 LED 휘도 감소 문제를 해결할 수 있는 장점이 있다.In the present invention, by using a lower-cost IC to configure a constant voltage converter and a constant current IC, there is an advantage that can solve the problem of LED brightness reduction according to low current at a simpler and lower cost than in the prior art.
이상에 설명한 바와 같이, 본 발명은 정전압 IC와 정전류 IC를 복합적으로 사용하여 LED 드라이버 회로를 구성함으로써 보다 다양한 조건에서 저가의 방식으로 안정적인 LED 드라이버 회로를 구현할 수 있는 장점이 있다. As described above, the present invention has a merit that a stable LED driver circuit can be implemented in a low cost manner under a variety of conditions by configuring the LED driver circuit using a combination of a constant voltage IC and a constant current IC.
