Abstract:
The present invention provides a light emitting device driver circuit and a control circuit and a control method thereof. The light emitting device driver circuit includes a power stage circuit, a feedback circuit, and a control circuit. The control circuit includes a comparison circuit, a hysteresis control circuit, and a bleeder circuit. The control circuit generates an analog control signal according to a rectified dimmer signal and an output signal, for controlling the power stage circuit to regulate an output current, which is supplied to a light emitting device circuit to determine its brightness. When the analog control signal decreases to a predetermined hysteresis low level, the light emitting device driver circuit operates in a cut-off mode wherein the bleeder circuit consumes a bleeder current so as to maintain the output current at a zero current, for keeping the light emitting device circuit OFF.

The present invention provides a switching regulator with PFC function and a control circuit and a control method thereof. The switching regulator with PFC function includes a power stage circuit, a current sense circuit, and a control circuit. The power stage circuit operates at least one power switch therein according to an operation signal to convert an input voltage to an output voltage. When a transient voltage of the input voltage exceeds a transient voltage upper limit, or when a transient slew rate of the input voltage exceeds a transient slew rate upper limit, the control circuit adjusts a frequency response gain from a stable state frequency response gain to a transient state frequency response gain, such that a transient current of an output current does not exceed a current upper limit, and/or that a transient response time of the output current does not exceed a threshold transient time period.
