Abstract

The invention provides a silicon controlled rectifier dimming circuit, a silicon controlled rectifier dimming method and a light emitting diode (LED) driver applied the silicon controlled rectifier dimming circuit and the silicon controlled rectifier dimming method. The silicon controlled rectifier dimming circuit is used for receiving a default phased direct current voltage signal and generating a dimming signal to adjust brightness loaded by a follow-up LED light. The silicon controlled rectifier dimming circuit comprises a conductive phase angle signal generating circuit and a dimming signal generating circuit. The conductive phase angle signal generating circuit is connected with a rectifier bridge and used for receiving the default phased direct voltage signal and generating a control signal representing conductive phase angle ranges of a silicon controlled rectifier rectifying component. The dimming signal generating circuit is connected with the conductive phase angle signal generating circuit and used for receiving the control signal, an adjustable signal and a clamping voltage signal to generate a dimming signal, choosing dimming phase angle range amplitude by setting a constant value signal determined by the clamping voltage signal, and adjusting amplitude values of the dimming signal by adjusting the adjustable signal to conduct corresponding translation on a dimming phase angle range of the silicon controlled rectifier dimming circuit.

However, since the characteristic parameters of thyristor rectifier elements are different, the conduction phase angle ranges are different. For different thyristor rectifier elements, the parameters of the thyristor dimming circuit need to be adjusted differently, otherwise, it may be The dimming performance of the thyristor dimming circuit will be reduced, so the existing thyristo
