Abstract

A LED lighting system performs no flicking. A rectifier receives an AC input voltage to generate a rectified input voltage at an input power line and a ground voltage at a ground line. A LED string comprises LEDs connected in series to have a main anode and a main cathode. The main anode is coupled to the input power line. A power bank is connected to the input power line and the main cathode. The circuit conducts a first driving current from the main cathode to the ground line, and a second driving current from the power bank to the ground line. The second driving current increases electric energy stored in the power bank. Both the first and second driving currents flow through the LED string. The power bank releases the electric energy to make at least one of the LEDs illuminate when the AC input voltage is about 0V.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a light-emitting diode (Light-Emitting Diode; LED) lighting system, in particular to a light-emitting diode lighting system and a control method driven by alternating current without causing flicker. Background technique [0002] Light-emitting diodes (Light-Emitting Diodes; LEDs) are being used for general lighting purposes at a very fast speed. In one use case, an assembly consisting of multiple LEDs is powered by an AC power source, and the term "AC LED" is sometimes used to describe such a circuit. For the AC LED lighting system, the concerned parts include its manufacturing cost, power efficiency, power factor, flicker and service life...etc. [0003] Please refer to figure 1 , figure 1 It is a circuit diagram of an AC LED lighting system 10 in the prior art. The AC LED lighting system 10 simply includes a LED module 12 and a current limiting resistor 14 . The LED module 12 is composed of two anti-parallel LED...
