[0027] When the LED detection circuit 110 detects that the PWM driving signal is the first logic level (for example, high level) and the voltage of the output end of the LED lamp string LED1 is high level, the switching device Q3 and the switching device Q4 are turned on, the detection signal outputted by the detection output end C of the LED detection circuit 110 is the first logic level (for example, high level), which indicates that the LED lamp string LED1 is in the short circuit state; when the LED detection circuit 110 detects that the PWM driving signal is the first logic level (for example, high level) and the voltage of the output end of the LED lamp string LED1 is low level, the switching device Q3 is turned off and the switching device Q4 is turned on, the detection signal outputted by the detection output end C of the LED detection circuit 110 is the second logic level (for example, low level), which indicates that the LED lamp string LED1 is in the non-short circuit state; when the LED detection circuit 110 detects that the PWM driving signal is the second logic level (for example, low level) and the voltage of the output end of the LED lamp string LED1 is high level, the switching device Q3 is turned off and the switching device Q4 is turned off, the detection signal outputted by the detection output end C of the LED detection circuit 110 is the second logic level (for example, low level), which indicates that the LED lamp string LED1 is in the non-short circuit state.

[0029] When the detection signal output by the detection output terminal C of the LED detection circuit 110 is at the first logic level (e.g., high level) and the voltage at the output terminal of the LED string LED1 is high level, the switching device Q2 is turned on, thereby driving the shutdown circuit 120 to drive the power transistor Q1 to turn off through its drive output terminal F; otherwise, the switching device Q2 is turned off, thereby driving the shutdown circuit 120 to not work.

[0032] The following is a detailed introduction Figure 1 The working principle of the LED short-circuit protection circuit shown.

[0033] 1、System normal work time (or LED light string LED1 does not appear short circuit), when PWM drive signal is high (it can be called the first logic level of PWM drive signal), through resistance R1 and resistance R2 to the gate of power tube Q1, drive power tube Q1 conduction, power tube Q1 drain voltage is 0V, because PWM drive signal is high, switch device Q4 is NPN triode, switch device Q4 will also be saturated conduction, switch device Q4 collector is also pulled low to 0V, because the negative of diode D3 is connected to the drain of power tube Q1, power tube Q1 drain voltage is 0V, due to the clamping effect of diode, switch device Q3 emitter will be clamped to about 0.3V, switch device Q3 is a PNP triode, when switch device Q4 saturated conduction, switch device Q3 emitter voltage through resistance R4, resistance R6 voltage division does not meet the saturation conduction condition of switch device Q3, so switch device Q3 is off state (or off state), switch device Q3 collector is connected to ground through resistance R7 and R8, so switch device Q3 collector and switch device Q2 base are 0V, that is, the detection output end C of LED detection circuit 110 is low (it can be called the second logic level of detection signal), so that NPN triode Q2 is also in the off state (or off state), because D1 and D2 are diodes, diode has unidirectional conductivity, and switch device Q2 is in the off state, so the system works normally and the PWM drive signal is high, LED detection circuit 110 and drive off circuit 120 will not work, will not affect the drive of power tube Q1.

[0034] 2、System normal work time, when PWM drive signal is low, through resistance R1 and resistance R2 to the gate of power tube Q1, power tube Q1 is NMOS tube, power tube Q1 will not be turned on, power tube Q1 drain voltage is the voltage of power supply Vbat, switch device Q4 is a NPN triode, switch device Q4 will not be turned on, resistance R5 is also connected to PWM drive signal, D3 is a diode, diode has unidirectional conductivity, switch device Q3 emitter is also 0V, because switch device Q4 is in the off state, switch device Q3 is also in the off state, so switch device Q3 collector and Q2 base are also 0V, that is, the detection output end C of LED detection circuit 110 is low (it can be called the second logic level of detection signal), so that NPN triode Q2 is also in the off state (or off state), because D1 and D2 are diodes, diode has unidirectional conductivity, and switch device Q2 is in the off state, so the system works normally and the PWM drive signal is low, LED detection circuit 110 and drive off circuit 120 will not work, will not affect the drive of power tube Q1.

[0035] 3、When the PWM drive signal is high, and the LED string LED1 is short-circuited, the negative electrode of the diode D3 will rise from 0V to the voltage value of the power supply Vbat instantaneously, because the switch device Q4 is turned on when the PWM drive signal is high, and the negative electrode of the diode D3 becomes the voltage value of the power supply Vbat suddenly, the diode D3 loses the clamping effect, and the positive electrode voltage of the diode D3 is close to the voltage of the high level of the PWM drive signal, after being divided by the resistors R4 and R6, the PNP triode Q3 meets the turn-on condition, and the collector voltage of the switch device Q3 is also the high level voltage of the PWM drive signal, that is, the detection output end C of the LED detection circuit 110 is high (which can be called the first logic level of the detection signal)

[0036] Because the collector of the switch device Q3 is connected to the base of the switch device Q2 through the resistor R7, the switch device Q2 is saturated and turned on, and the collector of the switch device Q2 is pulled down to 0V, and the negative electrode of the diode D1 is connected to the collector of the switch device Q2, so that the clamping effect of the diode clamps the positive electrode voltage of the diode D1 to about 0.3V (that is, the voltage of the drive output end F of the drive-off circuit 120 is about 0.3V), and the power tube Q1 is an NMOS tube, which is turned off when the gate voltage is 0.3V, so that the power tube Q1 is protected from being damaged by the large current caused by the short circuit of the LED string LED1.

[0037] In summary, the LED short-circuit protection circuit has the following beneficial effects:

[0038] 1、The utility model discloses a simple and reliable circuit built by discrete devices, which determines whether the LED is in a short-circuit state by detecting the negative electrode voltage of the LED, and turns off the power drive (that is, turns off the power tube Q1) if the LED is in a short-circuit state, thereby protecting the power tube Q1 from being damaged in a very short time.

[0039] 2、The utility model discloses a short-circuit detection of the LED without the need for a shunt resistor, thereby reducing the cost, reducing the heat generation of the shunt resistor, and improving the efficiency of the product.

[0040] Compared with the prior art, the utility model discloses a low-cost and strong device replacement LED hardware short-circuit protection circuit built by discrete devices, which is not affected by the semiconductor market.

[0041] It should be pointed out that any modification made by a person skilled in the art to the specific embodiments of the utility model does not deviate from the scope of the claims of the utility model. Accordingly, the scope of the claims of the utility model is not limited to the foregoing specific embodiments.
