Single-Stage Single-Switch Four-Output Resonant LED Driver With High Power Factor and Passive Current Balancing.

A resonant single-stage single-switch four-output LED driver with high power factor and passive current balancing is proposed. By controlling one output current, the other output currents of four-output LED driver can be controlled via passive current balancing, which makes its control simple. When magnetizing inductor current operates in critical conduction mode, unity power factor is achieved. The proposed LED driver uses only one active switch and one magnetic component, thus it benefits from low cost, small volume, and light weight. Moreover, high-efficiency performance is achieved due to single-stage power conversion and soft-switching characteristics. The characteristics of the proposed LED driver are studied in this paper and experimental results of two 110-W four-output isolated LED drivers are provided to verify the studied results.
