Description
Technical Field

[0002] An independent auxiliary power supply circuit is an important component in LED driver power supply design, improving system stability, reliability, and functional scalability. This circuit typically provides stable power to low-power circuits such as control circuits, MCUs (microcontrollers), and feedback loops within the driver power supply. This allows the main circuit to continue operating stably during startup or under special conditions (such as sudden load changes or failures).
[0003] In some applications, it is necessary for the drive power supply to shut down quickly, thereby rapidly cutting off the auxiliary power supply. For example, in the use of emergency power supplies, a rapid shutdown is required to quickly cut off the auxiliary power supply, thus ceasing to supply power to equipment connected to the auxiliary power supply and releasing a dimming light to receive control signals from the emergency power supply.
[0004] However, in the existing design, the startup circuit of the auxiliary power supply / the power supply circuit of the auxiliary power supply main control IC is connected to the output of the PFC circuit. Because there is a large electrolytic capacitor at the output of the PFC circuit, when the drive power supply is shut down quickly, such as when the AC power is cut off, the auxiliary power supply cannot achieve rapid power-off and continue to supply power output due to the presence of the large electrolytic capacitor, which cannot meet the requirements of rapid switching.

Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0038] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This invention provides a driving circuit for a fast shutdown auxiliary source. This fast shutdown auxiliary source driving circuit can be applied to LED driver power supplies, emergency power supplies, etc.
[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 1As shown, the driving circuit for the rapid shutdown of the auxiliary source includes: an EMI filter module 10, a rectification filter module 20, an intermediate processing module, an output module 80, an auxiliary source 70, and a dimming control module 90.

The power supply input terminal of the auxiliary source 70 is located between the output terminal of the rectifier filter module 20 and the input terminal of the intermediate processing module.
[0041] Specifically, the EMI filter module 10 is used to connect to an external power supply, to receive AC signals and to perform EMI filtering on the AC signals; the rectifier filter module 20 is used to rectify and filter the AC signals and then provide input signals and power supply signals to the intermediate processing module and the auxiliary source 70 respectively; the auxiliary source 70 is used to provide power to the intermediate processing module and the dimming control module 90 during normal operation, and to quickly shut down when the AC signal is cut off.

[0046] Optionally, in this embodiment of the present invention, the input module includes: a current limiting circuit, a clamping circuit, and a filtering circuit.
[0047] The input terminal of the current limiting circuit is connected to the output terminal of the rectifier and filter module 20, the first output terminal of the current limiting circuit is connected to the input terminal of the clamping circuit, and the second output terminal of the current limiting circuit is connected to the control terminal of the linear regulator module; the output terminal of the clamping circuit is connected to the filter circuit and then to the power supply terminal of the control chip.
[0048] The principle of the drive circuit for the fast shutdown auxiliary source of this utility model will be explained below with a specific embodiment.
[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the current limiting circuit includes: a tenth resistor R10, a sixth resistor R6, a seventh resistor R7, an eighth resistor R8, and a second resistor R2. The control chip U1 is the control IC in the auxiliary source 70 circuit of the LED driver power supply, and its function and principle adopt existing solutions. For example, the OB25133JPSOP-7 chip can be used.
[0050] The tenth resistor R10, the sixth resistor R6, the seventh resistor R7, the eighth resistor R8, and the second resistor R2 are connected in series between the output terminal of the rectifier filter module 20 and the control terminal of the linear regulator module. The connection node between the eighth resistor R8 and the second resistor R2 is the first output terminal of the current limiting circuit, and the connection node between the second resistor R2 and the control terminal of the linear regulator module is the second output terminal of the current limiting circuit.
[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the clamping circuit includes: a first Zener diode ZD501; the cathode of the first Zener diode ZD501 is the input terminal of the clamping circuit, and the anode of the first Zener diode ZD501 is the output terminal of the clamping circuit.
[0052] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the filtering circuit includes: a first filtering capacitor C511; the first end of the first filtering capacitor C511 is connected to the anode of the first Zener diode ZD501 and connected to the power supply terminal of the control chip U1, and the second end of the first filtering capacitor C511 is grounded.
[0053] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the linear voltage regulator module includes: a first resistor R1, a second Zener diode ZD502, a second filter capacitor C505, and a transistor Q502. The first terminal of the first resistor R1 is connected to the base of the transistor Q502, the second terminal of the first resistor R1 is connected to the second output terminal of the input module, the cathode of the second Zener diode ZD502 is connected to the second terminal of the first resistor R1, and the anode of the second Zener diode ZD502 is grounded; the collector of the transistor Q502 is connected to the stable power supply module, and the emitter of the transistor Q502 is connected to the isolation module. The voltage after passing through the tenth resistor R10, the seventh resistor R7, the eighth resistor R8, and the second resistor R2 (i.e., Figure 2 The base voltage (VM) of transistor Q502 is provided by the transistor. The first resistor R1 connected to the base of transistor Q502 is a current-limiting resistor. Since the base current is extremely small, the voltage generated across the first resistor R1 is extremely small. Therefore, the base voltage is approximately equal to the voltage of the second Zener diode ZD502.
[0054] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the stable power supply module includes: a transformer T1-A, a second diode D503, and a third capacitor C3. The first terminal of the transformer T1-A is connected to the anode of the second diode D503, the second terminal of the transformer T1-A is grounded, the cathode of the second diode D503 is connected to the collector of the transistor Q502 and the first terminal of the third capacitor C3, and the second terminal of the third capacitor C3 is grounded.
[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the isolation module includes: a first diode D501; the anode of the first diode D501 is connected to the emitter of the transistor Q502, and the cathode of the first diode D501 is connected to the first output terminal of the input module.
[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, the auxiliary power source 70 is a flyback circuit, where HV+ is the voltage boosted by the PFC module 30. Because the PFC module 30 uses a large-capacity capacitor for energy storage, its voltage drops to zero much more slowly than that of the rectifier bridge. Therefore, in existing solutions, the presence of this large-capacity capacitor prevents the auxiliary power source 70 from shutting off quickly when AC power fails. Based on this, this invention moves the power supply of the auxiliary power source 70 to the front end of the PFC module 30, i.e., the output terminal of the rectifier filter module 20. Since the capacitor at the output terminal of the rectifier filter module 20 is a small-capacity capacitor, it can quickly drop to zero when AC power fails. Therefore, the power supply of the auxiliary power source 70 is reduced to zero, thus achieving the goal of quickly shutting off the auxiliary power source 70.
[0057] like Figure 2As shown, VAC is the voltage output by the rectifier and filter module 20. The specific working principle of this auxiliary source 70 is as follows:
[0058] How it works during startup:
[0059] When the power supply is turned on, the AC signal is input to the rectifier and filter module 20. After rectification and filtering by the rectifier and filter module 20, a VAC signal is output. This VAC signal passes sequentially through the tenth resistor R10, the sixth resistor R6, the seventh resistor R7, and the eighth resistor R8 before being sent to the first Zener diode ZD501. When the VAC signal reaches the breakdown voltage of the first Zener diode ZD501, the first Zener diode ZD501 conducts, thereby transmitting the voltage to the first filter capacitor C511. During this process, the voltage of the first filter capacitor C511 gradually increases. When the voltage rises to reach the operating voltage of the control chip U1, the control chip U1 turns on. When the voltage of the VAC signal is lower than the breakdown voltage of the first Zener diode ZD501, the first Zener diode ZD501 does not conduct, and the control chip U1 does not operate, thus achieving the undervoltage protection function.
[0060] How it works after startup:
[0061] After the control chip U1 is started, the transformer T1-A, the second diode D503, and the third capacitor C3 form another output section of the auxiliary source 70. The output voltage is regulated by a linear voltage regulator module, and the regulated voltage supplies power to the control chip U1 through the first diode D501 (at this time, the power supply is stable). The first diode D501 serves an isolation function, that is, it prevents the voltage generated at the first filter capacitor C511 from being separated from the voltage output by the transformer T1-A, the second diode D503, and the third capacitor C3, and the voltage regulated by the linear voltage regulator module.
[0062] like Figure 2 As shown, since the VAC source is after the rectifier bridge and before the PFC module 30, and the capacitors here (i.e., after the rectifier bridge and before the PFC module 30) are small-capacity capacitors with fast discharge characteristics, when the power supply is suddenly interrupted (i.e., the AC signal is lost), the voltage at the first filter capacitor C511 will quickly drop to zero due to the rapid discharge of the capacitors after the rectifier bridge, and will no longer supply power to the control chip U1; at the same time, VM will also drop to zero quickly, the base voltage of transistor Q502 will drop to zero, and transistor Q502 will be cut off, thereby quickly cutting off the power supply to the control chip U1, and the control chip U1 will stop working, that is, the auxiliary source 70 can be quickly turned off.
[0063] This utility model also provides an emergency power supply, which includes: the drive circuit for quickly shutting off the auxiliary source disclosed in this utility model.
[0064] This invention enables the auxiliary power source 70 to be quickly shut off when AC power fails, effectively preventing the auxiliary power source 70 from continuously supplying power due to the large electrolytic capacitor, thus failing to meet the needs of rapid switching and allowing the emergency power supply to be quickly switched and restarted.
[0065] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. They do not limit the scope of protection of this utility model.
