Abstract:
A voltage selection circuit selecting a minimum voltage from the remainder voltages outputted from the light emitting diode channels is disclosed. The voltage selection circuit includes a first picking circuit, which has the first operation amplifiers, a positive input terminal, an output terminal, a negative input terminal, and an output stage. Each of the first operation amplifiers includes a positive input terminal, an output terminal, a negative input terminal, and an output stage. The positive input terminal receives one of the remainder voltages from one of the first ends of the light emitting diode channels. The output terminal outputs the minimum voltage, in which the output terminals of the first operation amplifiers are connected together. The negative input terminal is electrically connected to the output terminal. The output stage is electrically connected to the output terminal, in which the output stage has current sinking ability stronger than current sourcing ability.
