Abstract:
An LED driving apparatus includes: a PCB substrate having a voltage transformer and a switching device provided above the PCB substrate, the PCB substrate including a first circuit corresponding to a primary side of the voltage transformer and a second circuit corresponding to a secondary side of the voltage transformer; a first molding layer which is provided on the PCB substrate and covers the voltage transformer and the switching device; and a plurality of thermoelectric devices where heat dissipates. Some of the thermoelectric devices are connected to the first circuit and others of the thermoelectric devices are connected to the second circuit.
Abstract:
A light-emitting diode (LED) driver, an LED lighting apparatus, and a method of operating the LED lighting apparatus are provided. The LED driver may include an LED current controller configured to control an LED current, which flows through an LED array including a plurality of LEDs, such that the LED current is maintained at a constant level; a comparer configured to compare a sensing signal, which corresponds to a magnitude of the LED current, and a reference signal, and to obtain a first output signal based on a comparison result; and a dimming controller configured to modify the first output signal to obtain a second output signal for dimming of the plurality of LEDs, and to provide the second output signal to the LED current controller.
