[0031] The implementation principle of this application is explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] The LED control circuit of this embodiment is shown in the attached figure Figure 3As shown, the control circuit consists of an MCU, a control module, a resistor divider module, and a communication indicator light module. The control module includes a third resistor R1, a fifth resistor R3, a first transistor Q1, a sixth resistor R6, an eighth resistor R8, a first capacitor C1, and a second transistor Q2. One end of the sixth resistor R6 can be connected to the first output terminal PA of the MCU1. The other end of the sixth resistor R6, one end of the eighth resistor R8, and one end of the first capacitor C1 can be connected to the base of the second transistor Q2.

The other end of the third resistor R1 and the emitter of the first transistor Q1 can be connected to the power supply VCC. The collector of the first transistor Q1 can be connected to one end of the second resistor R5. The voltage of VCC is 5V.

[0033] The communication indicator light module may include a first resistor R4, a second resistor R5, a first light-emitting diode D1, and a second light-emitting diode D2. One end of the first resistor R4 and the cathode of the second light-emitting diode D2 may be connected to the voltage divider module 4. The other end of the first resistor R4 may be connected to the anode of the first light-emitting diode D1. The cathode of the first light-emitting diode D1 may be connected to the first output terminal PA4 of the MCU. One end of the second resistor R5 may be connected to the startup module 2. The other end of the second resistor R5 may be connected to the anode of the second light-emitting diode D2. The startup module 2 may be connected to the first output terminal PA4 of the MCU.

[0034] The resistor divider module may include a fourth resistor R2 and a seventh resistor R7. One end of the fourth resistor R2 may be connected to a power supply VCC. The other end of the fourth resistor R2 may be connected to one end of the seventh resistor R7. The other end of the seventh resistor R7 may be grounded. The cathode of the second light-emitting diode D2 may be connected to the other end of the fourth resistor R2.

[0035] In this embodiment, the MCU uses the DAC digital-to-analog converter function of the output terminal PA4 to achieve the output of voltages in different ranges, thereby achieving the function of controlling the transistor Q2. The output voltage of the PA4 terminal is UPA4. When UPA4 is 0V, the voltage between the base and emitter of the transistor Q2 is 0V, and the PN junction voltage is 0V. At this time, the transistor Q2 is in the cut-off state, and the collector and emitter of Q2 are not conducting. When the output voltage of the PA4 terminal gradually increases, when When the junction is at the conduction voltage, the transistor Q2 is in the on state, and the collector and emitter of Q2 are connected to GND.

[0036] In the control module, when PA4 outputs 0V, the collector and emitter of transistor Q2 are left floating. At this point, the PN junction voltage of transistor Q1 is 0V, putting it in the off state. The voltage at the left end of resistor R5 is also 0V. When PA4 outputs a voltage value of U1, the collector and emitter of transistor Q2 are connected to GND, forming a loop between R1, R3, and GND. At this point, the voltage across R1 is greater than the PN junction voltage, turning transistor Q1 on. The voltage at the left end of R5 is 5V, which is VCC.

[0037] In the resistor divider module, the 5V VCC power supply and resistors R2 and R7 form a loop. The cathode of D2, that is, the voltage across the resistor R7 is And R2=R7, that is, the voltage across resistor R7 is 2.5V.

[0038] In the communication indicator light module, the conduction voltage of the light emitting diode D1 and the light emitting diode D2 is 2V.

[0039] When the output voltage of PA4 is 0V, the voltage at the right end of R4 is 2.5V, the cathode voltage of LED D1 is 0V, the voltage at the left end of R5 is 0V, the cathode voltage of LED D2 is 2.5V, the voltage VF of LED D1 is 2.5, which is greater than the conduction voltage of 2.0V, and the voltage VF of LED D2 is -2.5, which is less than the conduction voltage of 2.0V. Therefore, LED D1 is on and LED D2 is off.

[0040] When the output voltage of PA4 is 3.3V, the voltage at the right end of R4 is 2.5V, the cathode voltage of LED D1 is 3.3V, the voltage at the left end of R5 is 5V, the cathode voltage of LED D2 is 2.5V, the voltage VF of LED D1 is -0.8, which is less than the conduction voltage of 2.0V, and the voltage VF of LED D2 is 2.5, which is greater than the conduction voltage of 2.0V. Therefore, LED D1 is off and LED D2 is on.

[0041] When the output voltage U2 of PA4 is greater than 0.5V, less than When , the voltage at the right end of R4 is 2.5V, the cathode voltage of LED D1 is U2, the voltage at the left end of R5 is 0V, the cathode voltage of LED D2 is 2.5V, the voltage VF of LED D1 is 2.5-U2 which is less than the conduction voltage 2.0V, the voltage VF of LED D2 is -2.5V which is less than the conduction voltage 2.0V, so LED D1 is off and LED D2 is off.

[0042] When an object moves rapidly, the human eye can retain the image for approximately 0.1-0.4 seconds after it disappears. This phenomenon is known as persistence of vision. This allows the present embodiment to simultaneously illuminate LEDs D1 and D2 when PA 4 rapidly switches between voltages of 0V, 3.3V, and U2.
