    摘要: A light-emitting-diode (LED) driving circuit and a display device include a current driving circuit, a level detector, a comparing circuit, a digital control circuit, and a power supply circuit. The level detector detects a minimum detection voltage signal having a minimum voltage level among voltage signals of first terminals of respective LED strings. The comparing circuit generates a first comparison output signal and a second comparison output signal based on a headroom-control reference voltage and the minimum detection voltage signal. The digital control circuit adjusts a duty ratio of a gate control signal in a digital mode based on the first comparison output signal, the second comparison output signal and a control clock signal. Therefore, the LED driving circuit has a small area in a semiconductor integrated circuit.

    摘要: A discharge lamp driving circuit includes an inverter, a ballast capacitor, a discharge lamp, and a lamp current detecting circuit. The inverter converts a DC voltage into an AC voltage with high frequency to output the AC voltage to an output port based on a pulse width modulation control signal. The lamp current detecting circuit outputs a first voltage signal and a second voltage signal according to a voltage across the ballast capacitor to generate a lamp current sensing voltage that is proportional to a lamp current flowing through the discharge lamp. The pulse width modulation control signal has a width varying with amplitude of the lamp current so that the lamp current may be accurately detected.
