LED DRIVER CIRCUIT AND LED LIGHTING DEVICE USING THE SAME

摘要

Provided is an LED driver circuit, to be connected to an AC power supply via a phase-control dimmer, for driving an LED load, including: a switching power supply part including a switching element and a switching current detection part; an LED current detection part; a first control part for controlling and switching the switching element so that a switching current has a desired current value based on a detection signal of the switching current detection part; a second control part for controlling and switching the switching element so that an LED current has a desired current value based on a detection signal of the LED current detection part; and a switch part for switching between control performed by the first control part when the phase-control dimmer is set to high brightness dimming and control performed by the second control part when the phase-control dimmer is set to low brightness dimming.
