If confirmed as CLASS 2 circuit, some accessory requirements used in connection with the circuit can be reduced, such as reducing the fireproof shell in the lamp, the insulation of LED wiring and the like, so as to reduce the lamp design requirements and the lamp design cost. For the LED drive power supply defined as Class2 output authentication, the following basic electrical properties need to be satisfied: the output voltage satisfies UL8750, and the output current and its power limit under normal or abnormal conditions need to satisfy UL1310. The power energy of the output of the existing high-power LED drive power supply is greater than 100W, and the current is greater than 5A, so that there is a safety hazard in application. In order to improve safety and reliability, a plurality of power supplies less than 100W can be selected for application, or a power supply with multiple outputs and satisfying Class2 can be selected for application. Then the number of power supplies used in the former increases, the wiring becomes complex, and the cost also increases. The cost of the power supply in the latter is very high and not universal, which is equivalent to professional customization, and cannot meet the application requirements of LED. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0014] The utility model discloses a conventional power supply of one big power is divided into meeting the multiple independent output channel 10 of Class2 (every channel output power is less than or equal to 100W, current is less than or equal to 5A), and the output power of every output channel 10 can be independently set through the parameter of sampling module change, and do not interfere with each other, i. e. the conventional power supply of one not meeting Class2 becomes a multiple output power supply meeting Class2.

The circuit structure of each of the four output channels 10 is the same, except that the specific parameters in the circuit are different according to the respective power. Taking the specific circuit of one of the output channels 10 as an example: the switching circuit 16 includes a MOS transistor Q1, a resistor R1 and a resistor R2. The D terminal of the MOS transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the negative output terminal. The G terminal of the MOS transistor Q1 is electrically connected to one end of the resistor R2. The other end of the resistor R2 is electrically connected to one end of the resistor R1 and the signal control circuit 15, respectively. The other end of the resistor R1 is electrically connected to the power supply circuit 20 to input the operating voltage VCC. The S terminal of the MOS transistor Q1 is electrically connected to the sampling circuit 11. The sampling circuit 11 includes a resistor R6. One end of the resistor R6 is electrically connected to the S terminal of the MOS transistor Q1 and the input terminal of the amplifying circuit 12, respectively. The other end of the resistor R6 is grounded. The amplifying circuit 12 includes an operational amplifier U1, a resistor R8, a resistor R10 and a capacitor C4. The positive input terminal of the operational amplifier U1 is electrically connected to the R6 of the sampling circuit 11. The negative input terminal of the operational amplifier U1 is electrically connected to one end of the resistor R8, one end of the resistor R10 and one end of the capacitor C4, respectively. The other end of the resistor R8 and the other end of the capacitor C4 are electrically connected to the output terminal of the operational amplifier U1, respectively. The output terminal of the operational amplifier U1 is electrically connected to the comparison circuit 13. The other end of the resistor R10 is grounded. The comparison circuit 13 includes a comparator U2, a resistor R5, a capacitor C1 and a reference circuit 13. The output terminal of the amplifying circuit 12 is electrically connected to the positive input terminal of the comparator U2 and one end of the capacitor C1 through the series-connected resistor R5, respectively. The other end of the capacitor C1 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the comparator U2. The reference circuit 13 is electrically connected to the negative input terminal of the comparator U2. The output terminal of the comparator U2 is electrically connected to the delay circuit 14.
[0016] The reference circuit 13 includes a resistor R9, a resistor R11 and a capacitor C5. One end of the resistor R9 is electrically connected to the power supply circuit 20 to input the operating voltage VCC. The other end of the resistor R9 is electrically connected to one end of the resistor R11, one end of the capacitor C5 and the negative input terminal of the comparator U2, respectively. The other end of the resistor R11 and the other end of the capacitor C5 are grounded, respectively. The signal control circuit 15 includes a MOS transistor Q2 and the delay circuit 14. The delay circuit 14 includes a diode D1, a resistor R7 and a capacitor C3. The anode of the diode D1 is electrically connected to the output terminal of the comparison circuit 13. The cathode of the diode D1 is electrically connected to one end of the resistor R7, one end of the capacitor C3 and the G terminal of the MOS transistor Q2, respectively. The other end of the resistor R7, the other end of the capacitor C3 and the S terminal of the MOS transistor Q2 are grounded, respectively. The D terminal of the MOS transistor Q2 is electrically connected to the switching circuit 16.
[0017] When the power output terminal works normally, the power-on makes the MOS tube Q1 conduct, and a voltage is generated on the resistor R6, which is the sampling signal (load current signal). The greater the value of the resistor R6, the smaller the corresponding load current and output power, that is, the output power of the output channel 10 can be adjusted by adjusting the size of the resistor R6, so that the output power is not greater than 100W and the output current is not greater than 5A to meet Class 2. The sampling signal is sent to the operational amplifier U1 through the resistor R4 for signal amplification, and the amplification factor is determined by the parameters of the operational amplifier U1, the resistor R8, the resistor R10 and the capacitor C4. The amplified signal is sent to the voltage comparator U2 through the resistor R5, and the reference of U2 is determined by the resistor R9, the resistor R11 and the capacitor C5 in the reference circuit 13. When working normally, the amplified signal is smaller than the reference of U2, and the 7th pin of U2 outputs low level. At this time, the MOS tube Q2 is cut off, and the working voltage VCC drives the MOS tube Q1 to normally conduct through the resistor R1 and the resistor R2, and the load works normally.
[0018] When the power output terminal is overloaded, the sampling signal generated on the resistor R6 is sent to the operational amplifier U1 through the resistor R4, and then to the voltage comparator U2 through the resistor R5. At this time, the amplified signal is greater than the reference voltage, and the 7th pin of U2 outputs high level. At this time, the high level charges the capacitor C3 through the diode D1. When the voltage of the capacitor C3 reaches the turn-on voltage of the MOS tube Q2, the MOS tube Q2 is turned on, which pulls down the driving voltage of the MOS tube Q1, so that the MOS tube Q1 is cut off, and the output is turned off, protecting the LED. After the MOS tube Q1 is cut off, the sampling signal generated on the resistor R6 is zero, and after amplification, the voltage comparator still outputs zero. At this time, the comparator U2 outputs low level, and the diode D1 is in reverse cut-off. The capacitor C3 and the resistor R7 form a discharge circuit, and the discharge time is determined by the parameters of the capacitor C3 and the resistor R7. When the voltage of the capacitor C3 drops to the cut-off voltage of the MOS tube Q2, the MOS tube Q2 is cut off, and the MOS tube Q1 is turned on again, and the LED is lit again. Similarly, if overloaded again, the above steps will be repeated, and the opening and closing time interval of the LED will be determined by the capacitor C3 and the resistor R7. The flashing of the LED will prompt that the overload state needs to be checked and eliminated. The LED is in the process of closing-lighting-overload-closing, effectively protecting the overheating and overheating damage of the LED caused by the overload. If the power output terminal is in a short circuit state, Q1 will be turned off again in an instant when Q1 is turned on, and will be in intermittent trial conduction all the time. The LED does not light (the conduction time is too short, and the brightness cannot be observed by the naked eye) until the short circuit is restored, and the LED restores the light. At the same time of the above process, other channels can also be overloaded or short-circuited at the same time, and the phenomenon is the same as above. When the fault is eliminated and restored to normal, each channel is independent and complementary to each other.
[0019] The utility model discloses reduce the threshold of CLASS2 application, and the ordinary power supply and CLASS2 principle are combined, and CLASS2 application is realized, and the LED overload application is effectively protected, the suitable life of LED is promoted, the risk of drive due to overload overheating is reduced, the application versatility of drive is promoted, and production replacement is more convenient.
[0020] Those skilled in the art can understand that the above preferred modes can be freely combined and superimposed without conflict.
[0021] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not limit the patent range of the utility model, and any equivalent structural transformation made by using the utility model specification and the attached drawing contents, or direct or indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the patent protection range of the utility model.
