Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0024] The embodiment of the present invention provides a shunt circuit for controlling the current of an LED lamp through a PWM signal. Figure 1 As shown, it includes a first diode D6, a signal filtering circuit 10, a transistor Q9, a first field effect transistor Q8, a first resistor R45, a second resistor R40, a second field effect transistor Q7, a third resistor R6, a second diode D5 and a fourth resistor R30.
[0025] Among them, PWM is pulse width modulation.
[0026] Specifically, the anode of the first diode D6 is used to access the PWM signal, and the two ends of the signal filtering circuit 10 are electrically connected to the cathode of the first diode D6 and the base of the transistor Q9 respectively.
[0027] The emitter of the transistor Q9 is grounded, and the collector of the transistor Q9 is electrically connected to the gate of the first field effect transistor Q8 and the cathode of the second diode D5 respectively.
[0028] The source of the first field effect transistor Q8 is grounded, and the drain of the first field effect transistor Q8 is electrically connected to the first end of the first resistor R45.
[0029] The second end of the first resistor R45 is electrically connected to the gate of the second field effect transistor Q7 and the first end of the second resistor R40 respectively. The second end of the second resistor R40 is used to be electrically connected to the positive electrode of the LED lamp.
[0030] The source of the second field effect transistor Q7 is electrically connected to the first end of the third resistor R6, and the second end of the third resistor R6 is used to be electrically connected to the cathode of the LED lamp.
[0031] The anode of the second diode D5 is electrically connected to the fourth resistor R30 , and the second end of the fourth resistor R30 is used to be electrically connected to the anode of the LED lamp.
[0032] The first diode D6 and the second diode D5 are both rectifier diodes of model IN4148. Of course, according to actual needs, the first diode D6 and the second diode D5 can also use other models.
[0033] The transistor Q9 is an NPN transistor of model 8050SG-G. Of course, according to actual needs, the transistor Q9 can also use other models.
[0034] The first field effect transistor Q8 is an N-channel field effect transistor of model VMOS3262. Of course, according to actual needs, the first field effect transistor Q8 can also use other models.
[0035] The second field effect transistor Q7 is a P-channel field effect transistor of model TDM31035. Of course, according to actual needs, the second field effect transistor Q7 can also use other models.
[0036] Specifically, the signal filtering circuit 10 includes a fifth resistor R39 and a capacitor C5. The fifth resistor R39 and the capacitor C5 are connected in parallel, that is, two ends of the fifth resistor R39 and the capacitor C5 are electrically connected to the cathode of the first diode D6 and the base of the transistor Q9 respectively.
[0037] Furthermore, a third diode ZN1 is included, a cathode of the third diode ZN1 is electrically connected to the anode of the second diode D5, and a cathode of the third diode ZN1 is grounded.
[0038] The third diode ZN1 is a Zener diode.
[0039] The working principle of the shunt circuit for controlling the current of the LED lamp by the PWM signal in this embodiment is as follows: when the PWM inputs the minimum square wave signal, the transistor Q9 is turned on at the minimum, the voltage drop at point A is very small and basically does not change, the first field effect tube Q8 is turned on, the voltage at point B is basically reduced to 0V, the voltage at point C is divided by the second resistor R40 and the first resistor R45, so that the third field effect tube is turned on, and most of the LED output current flows through the third resistor R6, so that the current flowing through the LED lamp is less than or equal to 1mA. If the square wave signal input by the PWM is larger, the transistor Q9 is turned on more, the voltage drop at point A is also larger, the first field effect tube Q8 is turned on less, the voltage at point B is higher, the voltage at point C is also higher, the second field effect tube Q7 is turned on less, and the current flowing through the LED lamp is larger.
