Title
Design and Implementation of a Single-Stage High-Efficacy LED Driver with Dynamic Voltage Regulation
Abstract
This paper proposes a single-stage high-efficacy fly back power-factor-correction (PFC) converter with optimization efficiency control for driving multi-string light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The LED driver consists of a fly back converter with PFC mechanism and a constant-current drive circuit with functionalities of efficiency optimization and dimming control. The proposed single-stage LED driver topology features benefits of high power factor and low total harmonic distortion (THD) in low-cost outlay. The pulse width modulation (PWM) dimming mechanism cooperating with the constant-current control circuit completes the LED dimming control. In order to reduce the power dissipations of the dimming circuits, a dynamic voltage regulation (DVR) control is presented to regulate the LED supply voltage by means of the sensing of the drain voltage of the MOSFET in the current controller. While maintaining the desired LED brightness, the DVR technique can minimize the voltage drop of the dimming circuit to enhance the LED driver efficiency further. A 30W white LED driver is devised and a corresponding driver prototype is realized. Testing results are shown experimentally to verify the effectiveness and performance improved of the proposed scheme.
