Abstract

An LED drive circuit of the present invention carries out, by use of a DC-to-DC converter (L202,Q202,D209A,C212), light control of an LED. The light control is carried out, in a region where a light control level is equal to or greater than a certain light control level, by a DC light control method for adjusting a pulse height of an LED drive current. The light control is carried out, in a region where a light control level is equal to or less than the certain light control level, by a PDM light control method for adjusting an off period of oscillation of the DC-to-DC converter.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a buck converter (buck converter) type or a buck boost converter (buck boost converter) type LED (Light Emitting Diode; light emitting diode) drive circuit. Background technique [0002] Referring to the LED driving circuit, the generally well-known LED driving circuit uses a DC / DC converter to provide a rated current to the LED, and changes the current value to control the dimming of the LED. As a method of supplying a rated current to an LED, an output current is detected by a resistor or the like, and a voltage is fed back so that a desired current can flow (for example, Patent Document 1). However, in general, this method still suffers from flicker in the sub-10% dimming region. [0003] In order to prevent the above problems, it is possible to use a step-down converter or a step-down converter to perform dimming by means of PWM (pulse width modulation; pulse width modulation) dimming (for example, Patent Document ...
