Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A LED driver circuit includes a first voltage drop module, a constant current driving module, a second voltage drop module, a DIP switch module, an auxiliary winding module, a control module and a loading module. The loading module is driven by converting a direct current voltage. The converted direct current voltage is additionally bucked to generate an optimized voltage that powers the DIP switch module and the control module. The DIP switch module selects a level of a predetermined current and in turn outputs an electrical signal to the control module. Therefore, the control module outputs a corresponding pulse signal for regulating a current passing through the loading module. Meanwhile, the control module calculates a required voltage level for driving. And the control module compares the required voltage level with an actual voltage value output by the auxiliary winding module and then determines the working status of the loading module.
