[0071] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0072] In the following description, the use of suffixes such as "module," "part," or "unit" to denote elements is solely for the purpose of illustrative purposes and has no specific meaning in itself. Therefore, "module," "part," or "unit" may be used interchangeably.

[0073] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a drive circuit provided in some implementations. For example... Figure 1 This includes method one and method two.

[0074] In Method 1, driving the PDLC involves a circuit that sequentially includes a power supply interface (through which DC power is input), an inverter, and the PDLC. The inverter includes a controller and a transformer. DC power is input through the power supply interface and then fed into the inverter, which converts it to AC power to output the voltage required by the PDLC. The PDLC's frequency matches the DC power, ultimately driving the PDLC. In Method 2, AC power from the city is input through the power supply interface to a transformer for step-down, obtaining the voltage and frequency required by the PDLC, thus driving the PDLC.

[0075] However, in the first method mentioned above, the inverter is bulky, the circuit is complex, the components are expensive, and the application scenarios are narrow.

[0076] Method 2, due to the use of urban AC power supply, has high requirements for the application scenario, and thus a narrower application range.

[0077] To address this, this application proposes a driving circuit comprising a DC-DC boost unit and an inverter boost unit. Optionally, the first terminal of the DC-DC boost unit is connected to the voltage input terminal, and the second terminal of the DC-DC boost unit is connected to the first terminal of the inverter boost unit. The second terminal of the inverter boost unit is also connected to the voltage input terminal. The third terminal of the inverter boost unit is connected to an electro-dimming module. Thus, after the DC-DC boost unit boosts the input voltage to the output voltage, the inverter boost unit further boosts the input and output voltages, converting the DC to AC and performing frequency modulation to obtain a sine wave signal. The voltage and frequency of this sine wave signal can be the voltage and frequency required by the electro-dimming module. If the required voltage and frequency are met, the electro-dimming module can be driven. Optionally, the DC-DC boost unit and inverter boost unit in this application are small devices, thus the driving circuit in this application, due to its small size, can be used in various scenarios. Existing inverters are bulky and cannot be used in smart terminals. Alternatively, the complexity of the circuitry also results in a large overall circuit size, making it unsuitable for use in smart terminals. Therefore, this solution addresses the issues of large device size and limited application scenarios in existing technologies.

[0078] Optionally, the driving circuit in this application can be an integrated circuit. The circuit connection between the DC boost unit and the inverter boost unit in this application can be simpler than the connection in the prior art. Optionally, the DC boost unit and the inverter boost unit in this application can be small in size. Optionally, the transparency of the PDLC is closely related to its voltage; when the voltage reaches the voltage required by the PDLC, the better the transparency of the PDLC, and thus the greater the effect of the PDLC.

Optionally, the DC-DC boost unit can boost the input voltage to the output voltage, thus boosting DC power. Further, the output voltage and input voltage are input to the inverter boost unit, which converts the boosted DC power to AC power to obtain a sine wave signal. Therefore, the current of the obtained sine wave signal is AC. Simultaneously, due to the characteristics of the positive and negative half-cycles of the sine wave signal, the voltage of each half-cycle is superimposed, increasing the voltage of the sine wave signal. The sine wave signal is input to the electro-dimming module. If the voltage and frequency of the sine wave signal are the voltage and frequency required by the electro-dimming module, then the electro-dimming module can be driven. The driving circuit in this application is small in size and has a simple connection, thus making it applicable to a wider range of scenarios.

The storage unit 8032 programs the pre-set waveform. When generating the first sinusoidal pulse width signal, the sinusoidal pulse width modulation unit 301 obtains the pre-set waveform from the storage unit 8032, generates a carrier wave (high-frequency triangular wave) of a specific frequency and a modulation wave (which can be the frequency required by the electroluminescence module), and then inputs it into the waveform comparator 8034 to generate the first sinusoidal pulse width modulation signal, which is then output through the driver module 804.

The duty cycle of the sinusoidal pulse width modulation unit 301 can be adjusted from 10% to 15%, and the input voltage can be re-input. After passing through the driving circuit, another sinusoidal signal can be obtained. The voltage of this sinusoidal signal is increased. If it is increased to the voltage required by the PDLC, the PDLC can be driven.

[0198] Optionally, to obtain the voltage required by the PDLC, the ratio and duty cycle of the voltage divider resistors can be adjusted simultaneously, or one of them can be adjusted individually; there is no limitation here.
