Problems solved by technology

[0003] The traditional LED driver is a DC-DC converter with constant current output, and its output current is a fixed value. The luminance of the driven LED must not be adjustable, which limits the application range of the LED; due to the inherent characteristics of the DC-DC control loop , when the driver starts, the control loop is in an unbalanced state, so that th

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of LED drivers, and relates to a dimmable LED driver chip, in particular to a dimmable LED driver chip provided with soft start and under-voltage lock-out (UVLO) circuits. The chip is based on a current PWM mode DC-DC boost converter. A switch type PWM dimming strategy is adopted for the interior of the chip so that the brightness of an LED lamp can be adjusted smoothly in a wide-range and dispersion-free mode without influencing the efficiency of the chip. Furthermore, the novel soft start circuit is integrated with the chip and can restrain surge currents and overshoot voltages during starting to protect the LED lamp and the driver chip from damage. Finally, the novel UVLO circuit is integrated with the chip to guarantee the working stability of the LED driver chip when the voltage of a power supply changes while the area of the chip is reduced, and the reliability of light emission of the LED is ensured.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of LED drivers and relates to a dimmable LED driver chip, in particular to a dimmable LED driver chip with a soft start and undervoltage lockout circuit. Background technique [0002] With the development of society, the concept of energy saving is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and people are actively looking for high-efficiency light sources, which have achieved the purpose of energy saving. White light LED has become an excellent solid-state light source due to its high luminous efficiency, long service life, good environmental adaptability, smooth dimming performance and other advantages. White LEDs are widely used in off-line lighting, such as indoor lighting fixtures and backlights for liquid crystal displays. Usually multiple LED lamps are connected in series to ensure that the brightness of each LED lamp is the same, while improving the overall brightness. Since the luminous brightness of the LED...
