Abstract

A light-emitting diode (LED) driving circuit is configured for driving at least one group of LEDs. The LED driving circuit includes a constant current source, a pulse width modulation (PWM) element, and at least one pulse frequency modulation (PFM) element. The constant current source is configured for generating a current signal with a constant current value; the PWM element is electrically connected to the constant current source and configured for modulating the current signal to generate a PWM signal corresponding to the current signal; the PFM element is electrically connected between the PWM element and the LED and configured for modulating a frequency width of the PWM signal to generate at least one PFM signal for driving the LED.
