Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of stage lights, and more specifically, to an over-temperature and over-current self-protection device and a stage light provided with the same. Background Art
[0002] The light sources of existing stage lights include bubble lights, LED light source modules or laser modules. Among them, the bubble light source is powered by a ballast after inversion, and the LED light source module and the laser module are driven and lit by a driving chip. However, both the ballast and the driving chip are very sensitive to external environmental or electrical interference. Especially when the ballast or the driving chip is damaged, it will cause uncontrolled damage to the bubble light or the LED light source module. Therefore, the prior art uses an MCU to control the ballast or the driving chip to control the light source. When the MCU receives an abnormal current or temperature signal, the light source state is changed through the driving chip or the ballast to avoid damage to the light source.
[0003] However, a new problem has emerged in the above technology. Once the MCU crashes, it will not be able to respond to the received abnormal current or temperature signal, making it difficult to timely change the light source state by controlling the driving chip or the ballast to avoid damage to the light source.
