Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of circuit technology, and in particular to a thyristor three-in-one LED driver control circuit. Background Technology
[0002] A triac-based LED driver control circuit uses a microcontroller to control the conduction time of a MOSFET to achieve dimming. A low-voltage MOSFET is connected in series at the power output terminal for control, without affecting the normal operation of the driver power supply system. It samples the input signal of the dimmer through a resistor, feeds it back to the microcontroller on the secondary side of the power supply via an optocoupler, and the microcontroller outputs a PWM signal to control the conduction time of the low-voltage MOSFET connected in series in the output circuit to achieve dimming. A 0 / 1~10V resistor dimmer also outputs a voltage signal to the microcontroller, which then outputs a PWM signal to control the conduction time of the MOSFET.
[0003] 1. Currently, the main type of SCR dimming power supply on the market is a single-voltage dimmer driver power supply. SCR dimmers are mainly divided into pre-switched SCR dimmers and post-switched MOSFET dimmers.
[0004] 2. The three-in-one dimming IC is mainly a 0 / 1~10V dimming / resistive dimming / PWM dimming dimming IC. It is also a power control IC that converts the voltage signal into a PWM signal and feeds it back to the primary power supply through an optocoupler. Utility Model Content
[0005] This invention provides a triac three-in-one LED driver control circuit to solve the problems of compatibility and dimming depth of triac dimmers from 0 / 1 to 10V.
[0006] This utility model provides a thyristor-controlled three-in-one LED driver control circuit, including a circuit board. A microcontroller is disposed on the top surface of the circuit board. One end of the microcontroller is electrically connected to a resistor dimmer via a power line. Another end of the microcontroller is electrically connected to a rectifier via a power line. A third end of the microcontroller is electrically connected to an optocoupler via a power line. Several sets of resistive elements are disposed on the surface of the circuit board.
[0007] Preferably, a cooling pipe is fixedly connected to the bottom of the circuit board, and a delivery pump is connected to one end of the cooling pipe.
[0008] Preferably, one end of the delivery pump is connected to a storage tank, and a semiconductor cooling chip is fixedly connected to the surface of the storage tank.
[0009] Preferably, a plurality of heat sinks are fixedly connected to the surface of the semiconductor cooling chip, and a support shell is sleeved on the surface of the semiconductor cooling chip, the support shell being fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the circuit board.
[0010] Preferably, a cooling fan is provided on one side of the support shell, and ventilation openings are provided on both sides of the support shell.

[0013] Beneficial effects:
[0014] Considering the compatibility of SCR dimmers and the dimming depth of 0 / 1 to 10V,
[0015] When using this thyristor-controlled three-in-one LED driver control circuit, the three dimming input signal voltage changes—thyristor dimming, 0 / 1~10V dimming, and resistive dimming—are all converted into an output PWM signal pulse width by the microcontroller to control the turn-on time of the low-voltage MOS in Q3 to achieve dimming. Furthermore, the dimming process does not affect the normal operation of the driver power supply system. Therefore, this new circuit application will not have issues with flickering or dimming depth. The thyristor dimming mainly uses bridge rectification to form the input voltage sampling through AR1, AR2, AR3, AR13, and AU3. The optocoupler feeds back to the secondary side to generate a 0-5V analog signal to pin 14 of the microcontroller. Pin 14 of the microcontroller receives the linearly proportional voltage signal, and pin 10 of the microcontroller generates different pulses. A wide PWM output signal controls the power supply output to achieve dimming. Resistors AR22, AR16, AR17, AR23, AQ2, AQ1, and AD2 form a load network. The purpose of this network is to maintain the minimum conduction current of the SCR dimmer when it is adjusted to the minimum angle, so that the power supply system can operate stably. When the 0 / 1~10V / resistive dimmer is dimmed, the main working principle is that the components AR14, AR15, AR52, and C19 form a voltage divider network. Pin 20 of the microcontroller generates a linear voltage signal of 0-5V. Based on the input 0-5V voltage signal, the microcontroller generates a PWM signal with a pulse width of 0%~100% at pin 10 to control the conduction time of the low-voltage MOS AQ3, thereby achieving dimming.

[0043] Working Principle: This three-in-one LED driver control circuit utilizes three dimming input signals: thyristor dimming, 0 / 1~10V dimming, and resistor dimming. These signals are converted into an output PWM signal pulse width by the microcontroller 2, which controls the turn-on time of the low-voltage MOS in Q3 to achieve dimming. The dimming process does not affect the normal operation of the driver power supply system. Therefore, this new circuit application will not have issues with flickering or dimming depth.

Different pulse width PWM output signals control the power supply output power to achieve dimming. Resistors AR22, AR16, AR17, AR23, AQ2, AQ1, and AD2 form a load network. The purpose of this network is to maintain the minimum conduction current of the thyristor when the dimmer is adjusted to its minimum angle, so that the power supply system can operate stably. When the 0 / 1~10V / resistor dimmer 3 dims, the main working principle is that the components AR14, AR15, AR52, and C19 form a voltage divider network. Pin 20 of the microcontroller 2 generates a linearly proportional voltage signal of 0-5V. Based on the input 0-5V voltage signal, the microcontroller 2 generates a PWM signal with a pulse width of 0% to 100% at pin 10 to control the conduction time of the low-voltage MOS AQ3, thereby achieving dimming.
