An average linear light-emitting diode (LED) driver circuit is disclosed. An inputting alternating-current (AC) voltage is connected to a rectifier bridge. An LED load is paralleled with a filtering capacitor and connected to a power switch. A compensation network and a voltage feedback network are included. When the output voltage of the rectifier bridge is higher than the voltage of the filtering capacitor, the drain voltage of the power switch is increased. The voltage feedback network decreases or turns off the current in the power switch. The compensation network controls the average current in the power switch to be equal to the desired LED load current. The average linear LED driver circuit intelligently controls the driver current, reduces the system power loss and increases the system efficiency. The LED driver maintains high conversion efficiency, especially under wide input voltage conditions. |
