Abstract: A DC power supply (1) having a series regulator (2) for generating a fixed output DC voltage (VCC) at a variable input AC voltage (VAC) with low power loss. For this purpose, the DC power supply (1, 101, 201, 301) has a transformer (3, 103) having at least two auxiliary windings (W1, W2) having different numbers of windings that can each be connected via a switching device (4, 104, 204, 304) to the series regulator (2). Switching is effected such that the power loss is kept as low as possible.

Abstract: The invention describes a control circuit for backlighting having a plurality of control channels in each of which a light emitting diode string is controlled. The control circuit has a balancing device for balancing the currents in the individual control channels, and a control unit that is connected to a power factor correction circuit (PFC), to a bridge circuit and to a primary-side current measuring device. Each control channel has a switch for switching the light emitting diode string that is connected to a separate dimming signal. The control circuit furthermore has at least one smoothing capacitor and one current limiter that limits the charging current for the smoothing capacitor. The control unit is additionally designed such that if all the dimming signals are logical ON, the output voltage of the PFC is regulated with the aid of the current measuring device such that the current on the primary side corresponds to a pre-determined setpoint value and that as soon as at least one dimming signal is logical OFF, the output voltage of the PFC is kept constant at its last value (FIG. 4).

Abstract: A down converter for converting an input DC voltage (Vin) into a lower output DC voltage (Vout). The down converter has on the primary side (2) an LC series resonance circuit (4) that can be connected via a first switch (S1) to the input voltage (Vin) and via a second switch (S2) to ground. On the secondary side (3), an output switch (S3) and an output capacitor (C) are each connected in parallel to the DC voltage output (Vout) and connected to each other through an inductor (L). The output switch (S3) is connected via a diode (Dr) to the input voltage (Vin) so as to divert voltage overshoots.
