    摘要: By monitoring the temperature of an LED and the temperature of a controller chip for the LED, a thermal foldback control is employed to gradually decrease the driving current of the LED before the LED or the controller chip is over heated, so as to prevent an over temperature protection from being triggered to shutdown the controller chip to cause the LED to undesirably flicker.

    摘要: A LED control circuit and method determine the frequency and duty of a LED driving signal according to a swing control signal and a dimming control signal, respectively. Responsive to the swing control signal, a pulse edge generator generates a clock whose frequency is determined by the swing control signal. Responsive to the clock and the dimming control signal, a duty ratio controller generates the LED driving signal whose frequency is determined by the clock frequency and whose duty is determined by the dimming control signal.
