Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the constant current and dimming control circuit of light-emitting diodes (LED for short) for lighting, in particular to a constant current control circuit of a diode array composed of a plurality of LED lamp strings or branch circuits (usually 2 to 10 in a string) connected in parallel. flow and dimming control circuits. Background technique [0002] The LED illuminants used for area lighting are composed of dozens of light-emitting diodes, and as many as hundreds of thousands of light-emitting diodes. Usually, 2 to 10 LEDs are connected in series to form a lighting branch, and each lighting branch is connected in parallel to form an array structure. For lighting LED arrays, the basic requirement is uniform and stable brightness. For this reason, the LED current of each lighting branch needs to be kept constant and controllable. The existing technology generally adopts the method of overall voltage stabilization to control t...
