Abstract

The invention discloses a method for controlling a light modulation device. When a two-line light modulator receives a modulation signal, a chopping switch firstly enters a modulation period to modulate the frequency or the amplitude of alternating voltage under the action of a driving signal, so that frequency modulation voltage or amplitude modulation voltage is produced and then output to a backward-stage driver; then the two-line light modulator enters a chopping period to chop the alternating voltage; and an impedance matching control circuit controls an impedance matching circuit to work in a low impedance state within a maximum chopping phase angle in chopping voltage of each chopping period according to the judgment whether the two-line light modulator outputs the frequency modulation voltage or the amplitude modulation voltage. According to the method for controlling the light modulation device, when the two-line light modulator exists at a forward stage, the chopping switch in the two-line light modulator informs the impedance matching control circuit in the backward-stage driver of controlling the impedance matching circuit to work in the low impedance state within the maximum chopping phase angle in chopping voltage of each chopping period before entering the chopping state, so that the cooperative work of the chopping switch and the impedance matching circuit is realized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of circuits, and in particular relates to a dimming device and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] The existing two-wire dimmer is usually connected between the power grid (Hot) and the load end (Dimmed Hot). Since there are only two wires between the dimmer and the power grid and the load end, it is named a two-wire dimmer. [0003] When the two-wire dimmer has an output of continuous zero voltage in half of the AC power cycle, the output voltage Vo of the two-wire dimmer is called the chopping voltage. Correspondingly, the chopping switch works in the chopping state. At the same time, The phase angle corresponding to the zero voltage duration in the output voltage Vo of the two-wire dimmer in half an AC cycle is the chopping phase angle. Two-wire dimmers usually use semiconductor power devices such as MOS transistors, IGBTs (insulated gate bipolar transistors), or thyristors as chopper switches,...
