Abstract

A multi-channel constant-current lighting circuit for automobiles comprises an error detecting circuit, a negative feedback circuit and a plurality of branch lighting circuits, wherein the error detecting circuit comprises a differential pair comprising two homotype triodes; the negative feedback circuit comprises a triode, a resistor and a diode; each branch lighting circuit comprises a proportional current source circuit respectively; and each proportional current source circuit comprises a branch resistor, a branch triode and a branch LED respectively. The differential pair comprising the two triodes can solve the problems caused by temperature shifting and instable supply voltage by detecting error current numbers of a power supply and cooperating with the negative feedback circuit, so that the lighting is more stable and the lighting circuits are independent of one another; the current of the LEDs can be adjusted conveniently, and multi-channel output capability can be expanded conveniently; and the current can be adjusted through PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation) signals with different duty ratios output by a micro-controller, thereby realizing software dimming without changing the circuits.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the electrical field, in particular to a lighting circuit, in particular to a multi-channel constant current lighting circuit for automobiles. Background technique [0002] Electronic components in cars such as radios, air conditioning control heads, and instrument clusters are illuminated by LEDs. The customer requires that the brightness of the LED lighting should have a stable performance under different temperatures and different car battery voltages (usually between 9v~16v). In the prior art, the commonly used LED lighting circuits are as follows: ① LED and current-limiting resistor are connected in series, and then connected to the positive terminal and negative terminal of the power supply. This circuit is the simplest, but the current of the LED changes with the battery voltage, resulting in a significant change in brightness. ② Add a switching transistor on the basis of ①, and the MCU (microcontroller) in the car ECU...
