Abstract

Next generation solid state lighting enables unlimited control of light and serve much broader functions beyond the basic lighting for illuminance. The emerging lighting for productivity, well-being, healthcare, and growth have revolutionized the scope of lighting. To empower this unlimited controllability, a multi-channel tunable power-electronics driver is essential but has not been satisfactorily addressed so far. Existing solutions are lossy, large, and expensive, due to introduction of additional buck power conversion stages. This paper proposes a time-division multiplexing (TDM) LED driving system which eliminates those buck stages. The proposed design can directly pair with off-the-shelf pulse width modulated (PWM) controllers and since it inherits entire feature sets, it can achieve low loss at standby and at dimmed condition. The simple analog implementation avoids usage of expensive DSPs/MCU. GaN's high switching frequency capability can push up the multiplexing frequency so a GaN-based flyback was built and proved the concept.
