Abstract
A driving circuit includes a plurality of light-emitting units, a plurality of switches, and a bias current module, wherein the light-emitting units are coupled with each other in series and are driven with an input voltage varying according to a frequency. Each switch has a reference voltage and a critical activation voltage and includes a light-emitting end and a bias end opposite to the light-emitting end, wherein the light-emitting end is coupled with the light-emitting units, and the bias ends of the switches are coupled with each other. The bias current module is coupled with the bias ends of the switches and has an operating bias voltage varying according to the frequency, wherein each switch is driven to be activated or to be deactivated according to a relation of the critical activation voltage and a difference between the reference voltage and the operating bias voltage.
