Description

LED驅動電路及利用其之LED燈具LED driving circuit and LED lamps using it

本發明係有關一種LED驅動電路,尤指一種可和帶有指示燈之開關面板搭配之LED驅動電路。The present invention relates to an LED drive circuit, especially an LED drive circuit that can be matched with a switch panel with indicator lights.

在用以開關照明燈具的現有開關面板中,為了方便使用者在燈關掉之後找到開關面板的位置,有的開關面板會靠表面螢光粉來提供微弱反光,有的則在面板內嵌一個LED小夜燈,面板閉合小夜燈不亮,面板關斷小夜燈亮。In the existing switch panels used to switch lighting fixtures, in order to facilitate the user to find the position of the switch panel after the light is turned off, some switch panels rely on surface phosphor to provide weak reflection, and some are embedded in the panel. LED night light, the panel is closed, the night light is off, and the panel is off, the night light is on.

請參照圖1,其繪示一習知照明燈具之電路圖。如圖1所示,該習知照明燈具包含一開關11、一LED 12、由四個二極體(13a、13b、13c、13d)組成之一全波整流單元13、一濾波電容14、一檢測電路15、一二極體16、一電感17、一驅動器18及一LED模組19,其中,檢測電路15具有由電阻15a和電阻15b組成之一分壓電路以提供一第一控制電壓V 1,由電阻15c和雙極性接面電晶體15d所組成之一第一反相電路以依第一控制電壓V 1產生與其反相之一第二控制電壓V 2,以及由電阻15e和雙極性接面電晶體15f所組成之一第二反相電路以在第二控制電壓V 2為高電位時為LED 12提供一電流路徑;二極體16、電感17和驅動器18則形成一驅動電路以驅動LED模組19。 Please refer to Figure 1, which shows a circuit diagram of a conventional lighting fixture. As shown in Figure 1, the conventional lighting fixture includes a switch 11, an LED 12, a full-wave rectifier unit 13 composed of four diodes (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d), a filter capacitor 14, a The detection circuit 15, a diode 16, an inductor 17, a driver 18, and an LED module 19, wherein the detection circuit 15 has a voltage divider circuit composed of a resistor 15a and a resistor 15b to provide a first control voltage V 1 , a first inverter circuit composed of a resistor 15c and a bipolar junction transistor 15d to generate a second control voltage V 2 that is inverted from the first control voltage V 1 , and a resistor 15e and a double A second inverter circuit formed by the polar junction transistor 15f provides a current path for the LED 12 when the second control voltage V 2 is high; the diode 16, the inductor 17 and the driver 18 form a driving circuit To drive the LED module 19.

當開關11閉合時:和開關11並聯的LED 12(小夜燈)不亮;全波整流單元13對交流電壓V AC進行全波整流以產生一輸入電壓V IN以供所述的驅動電路點亮LED模組19;且此時第一控制電壓V 1為高電位,第二控制電壓V 2為低電位,雙極性接面電晶體15f為關斷狀態。當開關11關斷時:和開關11並聯的LED 12(小夜燈)點亮;濾波電容14上的輸入電壓V IN的準位會大幅下降,致使所述的驅動電路無法點亮LED模組19;且此時第一控制電壓V 1為低電位,第二控制電壓V 2為高電位,雙極性接面電晶體15f為閉合狀態以為LED 12提供一電流路徑。 When the switch 11 is closed: the LED 12 (night light) in parallel with the switch 11 does not light; the full-wave rectifier unit 13 performs full-wave rectification on the AC voltage V AC to generate an input voltage V IN for the driving circuit to light up LED module 19; and at this time, the first control voltage V 1 is at a high potential, the second control voltage V 2 is at a low potential, and the bipolar junction transistor 15f is in the off state. When the switch 11 is turned off: the LED 12 (night light) connected in parallel with the switch 11 lights up; the level of the input voltage V IN on the filter capacitor 14 will drop significantly, causing the drive circuit to fail to light the LED module 19 ; And at this time, the first control voltage V 1 is a low potential, the second control voltage V 2 is a high potential, and the bipolar junction transistor 15f is in a closed state to provide a current path for the LED 12.

另外,考慮到系統成本和硬體空間的限制,濾波電容14一般不會選取特別大的電容值。然而,由於市電一般會有相當大的電壓變動範圍,例如100V的交流市電會在AC 85V~115V之間變動,因此,當開關11閉合且交流市電處於比較低的電壓時,輸入電壓V IN的波谷位置會比較低,致使第一控制電壓V 1可能會小於雙極性接面電晶體15d的導通電壓而使雙極性接面電晶體15f導通,從而分走了LED模組19的電流並因而降低了該習知照明燈具的工作效率。另外,雙極性接面電晶體15d和雙極性接面電晶體15f均為高壓元件,無論是以離散元件的方式實現或是集成到晶片內部,都有成本偏高的缺點。 In addition, considering the system cost and hardware space constraints, the filter capacitor 14 generally does not select a particularly large capacitance value. However, since the commercial power generally has a considerable voltage fluctuation range, for example, 100V AC mains will vary between AC 85V and 115V. Therefore, when the switch 11 is closed and the AC mains is at a relatively low voltage, the input voltage V IN The trough position will be relatively low, so that the first control voltage V 1 may be less than the turn-on voltage of the bipolar junction transistor 15d and the bipolar junction transistor 15f will be turned on, thereby dividing the current of the LED module 19 and reducing it The work efficiency of the conventional lighting fixture is improved. In addition, the bipolar junction transistor 15d and the bipolar junction transistor 15f are both high-voltage components. Whether implemented as discrete components or integrated into the chip, they have the disadvantage of high cost.

為解決上述問題,本領域亟需一種新穎的LED驅動電路。In order to solve the above problems, a novel LED driving circuit is urgently needed in the art.

本發明之一目的在於提供一種LED驅動電路,其可在不影響一LED模組的驅動效率的情況下為一開關面板的LED指示燈適應性地提供一電流路徑,以在該開關面板之一開關被斷開時點亮該LED指示燈。An object of the present invention is to provide an LED driving circuit, which can adaptively provide a current path for the LED indicator of a switch panel without affecting the driving efficiency of an LED module, so that the This LED indicator will light up when the switch is turned off.

As shown in FIG. 2, an LED lamp 100 is coupled to a switch panel 110 (including a switch 110a and an LED 110b connected in parallel with the switch 110a), wherein the LED lamp 100 includes a full-wave rectifier unit 101 and a filter capacitor 102.

NMOS電晶體104g具有一閘極、一汲極和一源極,該閘極耦接放大器104f之所述輸出端,該汲極耦接JFET電晶體104h,且該源極耦接一參考地;The NMOS transistor 104g has a gate, a drain and a source, the gate is coupled to the output terminal of the amplifier 104f, the drain is coupled to the JFET transistor 104h, and the source is coupled to a reference ground;

JFET電晶體104h具有一閘極、一汲極和一源極,該閘極耦接所述的參考地,該汲極耦接輸入電壓V IN,且該源極耦接NMOS電晶體104g的所述汲極。 The JFET transistor 104h has a gate, a drain and a source, the gate is coupled to the reference ground, the drain is coupled to the input voltage V IN , and the source is coupled to all of the NMOS transistor 104g Described very much.

當致能信號EN呈現所述作用狀態時,放大器104f會被致能,從而致能由放大器104f、NMOS電晶體104g、第三電阻104d和第四電阻104e所形成的一負回授電路以使JFET電晶體104h的吸入電流能夠適應性地調整為LED 110b的額定電流。When the enable signal EN assumes the above-mentioned active state, the amplifier 104f will be enabled, thereby enabling a negative feedback circuit formed by the amplifier 104f, the NMOS transistor 104g, the third resistor 104d and the fourth resistor 104e to make The sink current of the JFET transistor 104h can be adaptively adjusted to the rated current of the LED 110b.

請參考圖3,其繪示圖2之照明燈具之一工作波形圖。如圖3所示,當第一感測電壓V 1低於第一參考電壓V REF1的時間不超過閾值T S(10 ms)時,致能信號EN會呈現所述的不作用狀態(低電位)—代表開關110a閉合;當第一感測電壓V 1低於第一參考電壓V REF1的時間超過閾值T S(10 ms)時,致能信號EN會呈現所述的作用狀態(高電位)—代表開關110a斷開。 Please refer to Figure 3, which shows a working waveform diagram of one of the lighting fixtures in Figure 2. As shown in FIG. 3, when the first sensing voltage V 1 is lower than the first reference voltage V REF1 for a time that does not exceed the threshold T S (10 ms), the enable signal EN will assume the inactive state (low potential ) - denotes a switch 110a is closed; the time when the first sensing voltage V 1 is lower than the first reference voltage V REF1 exceeds a threshold value T S (10 ms), the enable signal EN will exhibit active state (the high potential) -Represents that the switch 110a is off.

另外,由於經全波整流單元101整流後的輸入電壓V IN屬於高電壓,因此JFET電晶體104h須採用高壓元件。 In addition, since the input voltage V IN rectified by the full-wave rectification unit 101 is a high voltage, the JFET transistor 104h must use a high-voltage component.

另外,JFET電晶體104h在功能上相當於一個電阻。由於不同型號的開關面板的小夜燈額定電流並不相同,所以小夜燈的驅動電路不能設置成固定電流。依上述的設計,當致能信號EN信號呈現所述的作用狀態時,如果LED 110b的額定電流大於該可禁能之電流源的吸收電流,則JFET電晶體104h的源極電壓V X會升高,致使第二感測電壓V 2升高以增加該可禁能之電流源的吸收電流;反之,如果LED 110b的額定電流小於該可禁能之電流源的吸收電流,則JFET電晶體104h的源極電壓V X會下降,致使第二感測電壓V 2下降以減少該可禁能之電流源的吸收電流,最終達到一個動態平衡。 In addition, the JFET transistor 104h is functionally equivalent to a resistor. Since the rated current of the night light of different types of switch panels is different, the drive circuit of the night light cannot be set to a fixed current. According to the above design, when the enable signal EN signal presents the stated action state, if the rated current of the LED 110b is greater than the absorption current of the disableable current source, the source voltage V X of the JFET transistor 104h will increase High, causing the second sensing voltage V 2 to increase to increase the absorption current of the disableable current source; conversely, if the rated current of the LED 110b is less than the absorption current of the disableable current source, the JFET transistor 104h The source voltage V X of V will drop, causing the second sensing voltage V 2 to drop to reduce the absorption current of the disable current source, and finally a dynamic balance is achieved.

另外,JFET電晶體104h亦可為檢測電路104提供電源通路以產生內部電源、第一參考電壓V REF1和第二參考電壓V REF2In addition, the JFET transistor 104h can also provide a power path for the detection circuit 104 to generate internal power, the first reference voltage V REF1 and the second reference voltage V REF2 .

依上述的說明可知,本發明可提供以下的優點:According to the above description, the present invention can provide the following advantages:

1. LED燈具效率高。1. LED lamps have high efficiency.

本發明的檢測電路即使在整流後的輸入電壓有比較低的波谷,但若該輸入電壓時間低於一參考電壓的時間未超過一閾值(約10mS),會認為開關面板沒有關斷,就不會啟動小夜燈的驅動電路,因而不會流失多餘的功耗。Even though the rectified input voltage of the detection circuit of the present invention has a relatively low trough, if the input voltage time is lower than a reference voltage for a time period that does not exceed a threshold value (about 10mS), it will be considered that the switch panel is not turned off, so The drive circuit of the night light will be activated, so excess power consumption will not be lost.

2.便於集成到晶片內部,系統成本低。2. It is easy to integrate into the chip, and the system cost is low.

本發明的檢測電路只使用了一個便於集成到驅動器晶片內部的高壓元件JFET電晶體104h,既節省了硬體空間,又降低系統的應用成本。另外,JFET電晶體104h也可以作為驅動器晶片的啟動電阻,因此無需用到額外的啟動電阻,簡化了系統設計。The detection circuit of the present invention only uses a high-voltage element JFET transistor 104h that is easy to integrate into the driver chip, which not only saves hardware space, but also reduces the application cost of the system. In addition, the JFET transistor 104h can also be used as the startup resistor of the driver chip, so no additional startup resistor is needed, which simplifies the system design.

I implore the examiner to investigate and grant the patent as soon as possible Society is for the best prayer.
