    Abstract: An improved electronic LCD backlighting inverter circuit for high frequency operation under low frequency pulse width modulation (PWM) for dimming control. The improved electronic LCD backlighting inverter is based on a voltage-fed push-pull LLC resonant inverter circuit configuration including a resonant inductor (L), magnetizing inductance of an output transformer (L), and resonant capacitor (C). For large values of magnetizing inductance the LLC circuit effectively becomes an LC resonant circuit. By synchronizing the high frequency switching signal and the low frequency modulation frequency using logic control circuitry, a wide dimming range and higher efficiency are achieved under PWM control.

    Abstract: An integrated LED driving device for multiple LED strings which employs a single linear regulator or other controller and a multiple-output current mirror which is almost independent of the DC input voltage source, almost independent of the transistor's or MOSFET's variations from the semiconductor integration process, and almost independent of temperature variation. The multiple-output current mirror includes a plurality of transistors or MOSFETs each of which are integrated on the same substrate, with identical width-to-length channel ratios and with identical source and gate connections. The integrated LED driving device provides for automatic current sharing in a DC mode and, alternately, with minimized phase delays in a PWM mode. The mirror-output current mirror may include mirror-cascode transistor pairs.

    Abstract: A white light-emitting-diode array driver circuit with a multiple output flyback (or forward) converter with output current mode control. The circuit comprises a power supply source and a transformer. The transformer has a primary winding coupled to, and configured to receive current from, the power supply, and a plurality of secondary windings coupled to the primary winding. The circuit also comprises a plurality of light-emitting-diode arrays, wherein each light-emitting-diode array is coupled to one of the secondary windings. A main controller is coupled to a first of the light-emitting-diode arrays and is configured to control a flow of current to the primary transformer winding. The circuit also comprises a plurality of secondary controllers, each of which are coupled to another of the light-emitting-diode arrays. In addition, each of the secondary controllers are configured to control a flow of current to its corresponding light-emitting-diode array. According to one embodiment of the invention, each of the light-emitting diodes has a resistor coupled to its cathode terminal. An output signal of each resistor is transmitted to the respective controller and is employed to determine the appropriate current flow to the light-emitting-diode array. The circuit may be configured as either a flyback converter, wherein the primary transformer winding is wound in the opposite direction of the secondary transformer windings, or as a forward converter, wherein the primary transformer winding is wound in the same direction as secondary transformer windings.
