The present invention relates to a switching operation control device of a power switch, an LED light emitting device including the same, and a control method thereof. The control device detects a zero crossing time when a voltage at an input end of the power switch becomes a zero voltage, generates a reference signal that is synchronized with the voltage at the input end of the power switch by using the detected zero crossing time, and compensates the generated reference signal with a first voltage that is greater than the zero voltage during a blocking period corresponding to the zero crossing time.

Control device, LED light emitting device including the same, and control method

Disclosed are a switch controller, a switch control method, and a converter based thereon. The switch controller generates an input sensing voltage corresponding to the input voltage of the converter, and compares the input sensing voltage with a predetermined first reference value. The switch controller generates a zero cross detection signal with a first level or a second level depending upon the comparison result, and generates a reference clock signal varying in frequency in accordance with one cycle of the zero cross detection signal. The switch controller generates digital signals by using the reference clock signal and the zero cross detection signal. The digital signals synchronize with the zero cross detection signal, and increase in accordance with the reference clock signal during a half of one cycle of the zero cross detection signal, while decreasing in accordance with the reference clock signal during the other half cycle of the zero cross detection signal. The switch controller generates a reference signal with a voltage level corresponding to the digital signal.
