Abstract :
A high efficiency driver circuit is proposed for Light Emitting Diode (LED) lamps with dimming feature. The driver consists of a fly-back converter in series with the dc-link. By processing partial power of the power conversion circuit for current regulation, a high overall circuit efficiency is achievable. The dimming feature can be accomplished by means of linear current regulation or the double pulse-width modulation (PWM) control scheme. Test results from an exemplar design for a 45 W LED lamp demonstrate that the high circuit efficiency.
