Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of LED electric light sources, in particular to an LED linear constant current dimming circuit. Background technique [0002] LED is called the fourth-generation lighting source or green light source. It has the characteristics of energy saving, environmental protection, long life, and small size. It is widely used in various indications, displays, decorations, backlights, general lighting, and urban night scenes. With the advancement of LED lighting technology and the continuous reduction of costs, LED lights are replacing traditional incandescent lamps and energy-saving lamps in large quantities, and the compatibility requirements of traditional incandescent lamps for traditional thyristor dimming are also applied to LED lighting. [0003] like figure 1 As shown, the existing LED thyristor dimming circuits are all developed based on the switch circuit principle. Because the circuit needs to be compatible...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Because the circuit needs to be compatible with the dimmer, the number of components is relatively large; especially the switching circuit will generate relatively large electromagnetic interference, and the original components L1, L2, CX1, and C3 are required to achieve attenuation to ensure that the power supply complies with EMC (electromagnetic compatibility electromagnetic Compatible) requirements, this will lead to the power supply cost can not be reduced, the volume can not be made small, can not meet the needs of production and market, and is not conducive to the miniaturization design of LED lamps
