Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of automotive lamp BUCK circuit technology, and specifically discloses a miniaturized multifunctional automotive lamp BUCK circuit. Background Technology

[0002] In various applications of automotive lights, both constant voltage and constant current power supplies are required. Furthermore, with the continuous development of electronic devices, the demands on power modules are increasing. Traditional automotive light circuits typically design their constant voltage and constant current circuits separately, resulting in low integration and large size, failing to meet the demands for miniaturization and multi-functional integration. Currently, achieving both constant voltage and constant current functionality often requires integrating constant current and constant voltage chips onto a single driver. This not only increases the number of components and cost but also complicates the layout and size of the driver board in space-constrained environments, leading to complex design solutions. Therefore, this invention provides a miniaturized, multi-functional automotive light BUCK circuit to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that in traditional vehicle lighting circuits, it is necessary to integrate constant current chips and constant voltage chips on a single driver, which increases the number of components and cost of the design.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the basic solution of this utility model provides a miniaturized multi-functional vehicle light BUCK circuit, comprising:

[0005] BUCK chip;

[0006] Set the input capacitance at the VIN pin of the BUCK chip;

[0007] Set the output capacitor on the VOUT pin of the BUCK chip;

[0008] The output regulation circuit includes a voltage divider resistor connected to the FB and VCC pins of the BUCK chip, a grounding resistor, and a control component for controlling whether the voltage divider resistor is connected to or disconnected from the VCC pin of the BUCK chip.

[0009] Furthermore, the output adjustment circuit also includes an FB resistor disposed between the voltage divider resistor and the grounding resistor. When the voltage divider resistor is only connected to the FB pin of the BUCK chip, the FB resistor is disconnected from the voltage divider resistor. When the voltage divider resistor is connected to both the FB pin and the VCC pin of the BUCK chip, the FB resistor is connected between the voltage divider resistor and the grounding resistor.

[0010] Furthermore, several diodes are provided between the VOUT pin of the BUCK chip and the FB resistor.

[0011] Furthermore, the reference voltage of the FB pin of the BUCK chip is 0.8V, and the resistance value of the voltage divider resistor is 100kΩ.

[0012] Furthermore, the resistance value of the FB resistor is 16kΩ.

[0013] Furthermore, the control component includes a first connection segment and a second connection segment respectively disposed between the voltage divider resistor and the VOUT pin of the BUCK chip and the VCC pin of the BUCK chip, a third connection segment disposed between the FB pin of the BUCK chip and the grounding resistor and connected in parallel with the FB resistor, and a plurality of control switches respectively controlling the connection of the first connection segment, the second connection segment and the third connection segment.

[0014] The principle and effect of this solution are as follows:

[0015] In environments requiring constant voltage output, this invention uses a reference voltage of 0.8V at the FB pin and controls the output voltage through a voltage divider resistor to achieve constant voltage output. In environments requiring constant current output, this invention uses the reference voltage of the FB pin and VCC together to make the output 0.4V, and then uses a grounding resistor to control the current to achieve constant current output.

[0016] Compared with existing technologies, this invention achieves dual-function output of constant voltage and constant current, using a single chip to meet the needs of both constant voltage and constant current operating modes, improving integration and reducing costs. Furthermore, the integrated circuit is flexible, functioning as either BUCK-CC (constant current mode) or BUCK-CV (constant voltage mode), facilitating modular construction and simplifying the design. The design is simple, eliminating the need to integrate constant current and constant voltage chips on a single driver, thus resolving layout and size issues. Moreover, it enables miniaturization of the vehicle light drive circuit, meeting the market demand for multi-functional, highly integrated, and miniaturized devices.

[0017] This invention employs an integrated design, resulting in low cost and effectively reducing the manufacturing cost of automotive lighting circuits, thus meeting the cost control needs of automakers. Its high flexibility and modular construction facilitate modification and adjustment according to actual needs, further satisfying the diverse and multifunctional circuit design requirements of automakers. Due to its advanced nature, this invention has wide applications in automotive lighting equipment manufacturing, electronic circuit design, and power protection equipment manufacturing.
