Abstract
The present invention provides a multi-load control apparatus, a slave circuit and a control method thereof. The multi-load control apparatus includes a master circuit and at least one slave circuit. The master circuit generates at least one pulse width modulation (PWM) signal according to an input signal. The slave circuit controls a power switch according to a corresponding PWM signal. The slave circuit has a primary side circuit and a secondary side circuit. The primary side circuit generates an AC PWM signal according to the corresponding PWM signal. The power switch has a control terminal which is driven according to a floating ground level which is not a constant voltage level. The power switch has a current inflow terminal and a current outflow terminal, which are connected to a corresponding load circuit in series, wherein the series circuit of the power switch and the load circuit receives an AC voltage.
