    摘要: When a forward direction voltage of any of several LEDs 14 to 20 is lowered, a drain voltage of an NMOS transistor 70 employed in any of series regulators 24 to 30 becomes higher than a defined voltage. A zener diode ZD1, which is connected to the LED where the abnormal condition occurs, becomes conductive. A voltage, which is increased from the defined voltage, is applied to a negative input terminal of a comparing amplifier 72, and an output voltage of the comparing amplifier 72 is lowered by this increased voltage portion so that a gate voltage of the NMOS transistor 70 is lowered. A current flowing through the NMOS transistor 70 is decreased. Even if an abnormal condition caused by a voltage drop occurs in any of the LEDs 14 to 20, then the LEDs 14 to 20 can be protected.

    摘要: A semiconductor light source lighting circuit includes a switching regulator that produces a drive current ILED with a switching element, and a control circuit that controls turning on and off of the switching element so that the magnitude of the drive current ILED approaches a target value. The control circuit includes an error comparator that compares the drive current ILED and the target value, an up/down counter that performs a counting operation, in which the control digital value is incremented or decremented based on the result of the comparison, a D/A converter that converts the control digital value into an analog duty ratio setting signal S4, and a drive circuit that controls the turning on and off of the switching element based on the signal S4. The up/down counter stops the counting operation when the switching regulator is brought into the inactive state.
