2.10 LED Driving Board

In general, LEDs have a nonlinear I-V behavior and current limitation is required to prevent the power dissipation to exceed a maximum limit. Therefore, the ideal source for LED driving is a constant current source. A linear type LED driver is used in this reference design and the block diagram is shown in Figure 2-4. The major advantage of linear driver is fast turn ON and OFF response times to support high frequency PWM dimming method and wide range control on dimming level. An integrated DC-to-DC boost converter (MC34063) generates the high voltage required for LED driving in series and is shared with RGB channels, but the drawback is the power loss on R channel is higher than G or B channels. Individual DC-to-DC block should be used for each channel in power sensitive applications.
