Abstract

A dimmable switching mode LED driving circuit without phase angle measurement, including: a dimmer circuit for providing a phase-cut AC voltage; a bridge rectifier providing an input voltage by rectifying the phase-cut AC voltage; an electromagnetic interference filtering and energy storing circuit providing a line voltage according to the input voltage; a switching power converter converting the line voltage to an output current for an LED load under a control of a driving voltage; and a control unit including an on-time controller for operating in a constant on-time mode to determine an on time, where the on-time controller includes a voltage limiting circuit, a saw-tooth signal generator, and a comparison circuit to set a maximum limit on the on time.
