A current intensity convertible CLD chip was fabricated using small and large FET cell configuration. Pinch-off current of 8.82 mA and 11.56 mA were obtained for small and large cell in the CLD chip, respectively. Constant current was fairly maintained until the breakdown voltage of 60 V. Measured knee voltage, $V_k$ were 3.8 V and 4.5 V for small and large cell, respectively. We configured current amplifying chip with parallel connection of each cells, by connecting 8 individual large cells in parallel network, 92.0 mA of current was obtained. The pinch-off constant current of CLD chip was varied very linearly with respect to the number of parallel connected cell.

In this paper, 200 W power supply for LED driver has been designed, analyzed, simulated and tested. Input AC voltage of 100VAC-240VAC was converted to DC voltage by high power factor converter. Output voltage was controlled, and output current was controlled by constant current when output current was reached to LED maximum rated current. By simulation and experimental test, voltage and current control and high power factor characteristics are verified.

In this paper, High brightness LED (light-emitting diodes) driver IC (integrated circuit) using new current sensing circuit is proposed. This LED driver IC can provide a constant current with high current precision over a wide input voltage range. The proposed current-sensing circuit is composed of a cascode current sensor and a current comparator with only one reference voltage. This IC minimizes the voltage stress of the MOSFET (metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor) from the maximum input voltage and has low power consumption and chip area by using simple-structured comparator and minimum bias current. To confirm the functioning and characteristics of our proposed LED driver IC, we designed a buck converter. The LED current ripple of the designed IC is in ${\pm}5%$ and a tolerance of the average LED current is lower than 2.43%. This shows much improved feature than the previous method. Also, protections for input voltage and operating temperature are designed to improve the reliability of the designed IC. Designed LED driver IC uses 1.0 ${\mu}m$ X-Fab. BiCMOS process parameters and electrical characteristics and functioning are verified by spectre (Cadence) simulation.

최근 급속한 녹색환경 정책으로 LED를 이용한 조명 광원들이 설치 운용하고 있으나, 이들 광원의 전원 공급은 안정된 직류 전원 공급을 위해서 스위칭 모드 전원 공급(SMPS) 장치로 전원을 공급하고 있다. 그러나, 이들 전원 공급 장치는 공급 단가 때문에 설계 및 설치과정에서 스위칭에 따른 전력과 변환역률, 전기적 노이즈 및 돌입전류들은 간과하고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 SMPS는 고품질의 전원을 LED 조명 부하에 공급하기 위하여 스위칭 시에 다음과 같은 3가지 관점에서 회로를 연구하였다. 첫 번째, 역률과 효율을 약 85% 확보하고, 두 번째, 노이즈(고조파 포함) 최소화, 세 번째는 스위치-온 시 3A 돌입전류를 $100{\mu}sec$ 후 최소 0.3 A로 감소하여 돌입 전류 침입을 최소화 하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서는 IC형 구동기(LNK 409)를 적용하여 입력전압과 출력상황을 귀환 형태로 감시하도록 하였으며, 정전류 출력을 위하여 정전압을 유지할 수 있는 제어회로와 시상수를 개발하였다. 그러나, 부하 변동 시 미세한 전류의 불규칙으로 인한 발열 문제는 해결하지 못하고 있다. 이를 증명하고자 LED 조명 부하 46 W급을 대상으로 효과를 검증하였다.

In this paper, the effect of pulse current and generated heat on characteristics of the LED is measured and evaluated. For experiments, the LED driving circuit and digital logic which determines period and duty ratio of lighting are designed. At rated current, the temperature and optical characteristics of the LED with change in duty ratio and period are compared, and those of the LED with change in duty ratio and existence of cooling fan are also compared at constant average current. As a result, frequency does not affect device temperature and optical characteristic of the LED but duty ratio does. Also, the cooling fan is less effective on those of the LED at rated current.

본 연구는 다양한 DC 전원을 활용할 수 있는 승압형 DC-DC 컨버터로 설계사양을 통한 인덕터 L과 커패시터 C의 값을 산출하여 PSPICE를 통한 최적의 값을 추정하였다. 승압형 DC-DC 컨버터는 스위치 소자로 IRF840을 사용하였으며 역회복 시간(reverse recovery time)이 뛰어난 쇼트키 다이오드(schottky rectifiers)인 D10SC6M을 사용하여 정전류 제어 (constant current controller)가 가능하도록 구성하였으며 열저항을 고려한 파워 LED 모듈 (power LED module)을 제작하여 구동하였다. 컨버터의 스위칭 주파수는 50 kHz로 최초 듀티비는 10 %에서 출력전압의 검출 값에 따라 점차적으로 증가시키도록 하였다. 그 결과로 승압형 파워 LED 구동기를 시뮬레이션 한 특성은 설계사양과 비교하여 5 %이하의 오차로 근사적으로 나타났고, 입력전압 15 V를 인가하여 안정된 24 V의 안정된 출력전압을 얻었으며 디밍제어 (dimming control)를 통한 밝기 조절 및 소비전류의 조정이 가능하였다.

This paper describes analysis and calculation of line frequency ripple current according to output capacitor value and effects of LED connection in the single stage flyback converter with high power factor. The low frequency output ripple current delivered from single stage converter has been analyzed in detail and the method evaluating parasitic resistance included in LED has been provided. In order to verify the equation derived in this paper, the single stage flyback converter has been designed with constant output current regulation with DCM operation. Experiments were conducted with different LED load structures to analyze the effect of LED parasitic resistance on output ripple current. As test results, the calculation can provide guide line to select capacitor values depending on output ripple current and LED characteristics.
