Abstract
A LED circuit is provided. The LED circuit comprises: a plurality of LED channels, a driving module and a feedback-selecting module. The driving module supplies a driving voltage to the plurality of LED channels according to a feedback voltage. The feedback-selecting module comprises an open detection unit and a minimum-selecting unit. The open detection unit performs an open detection mechanism to separate the plurality of LED channels into a plurality of open LED channels and a plurality of non-open LED channels having an output voltage respectively. The minimum-selecting unit performs a selection mechanism to select a minimum output voltage as the feedback voltage from the output voltage of each of the plurality of non-open LED channels. A LED circuit operation method adapted in the LED circuit is provided herein as well.
