Light emitting diode driving circuit

Abstract

The invention relates to a light emitting diode driving circuit for driving a plurality of light emitting diode chains. The light emitting diode driving circuit comprises a plurality of constant current circuits and a plurality of short-circuit protection circuits; a transistor and a detection resistor in each constant current circuit are coupled in series between the output end and the ground end of a corresponding light emitting diode chain; and when the constant current circuits work normally, by comparing a reference voltage with a detection voltage generated by the detection resistor, a feedback circuit in each constant current circuit outputs a signal to control the size of current passing through the transistor to achieve constant current control; in addition, each short-circuit protection circuit is coupled with the output end of the corresponding light emitting diode chain and the corresponding constant current circuit and is used for outputting a short circuit signal to cut off the transistor of the corresponding constant current circuit to turn off the corresponding light emitting diode chain when the voltage of the output end of the corresponding light emitting diode chain reaches a preset voltage and the voltage of the input end of a short circuit signal generation circuit in the short-circuit protection circuit reaches a preset voltage.
