LED Lighting Power Supply and Drive Circuit Protection PDF Print E-mail

The LED power supply and drive circuit are too vulnerable by the damage of  electrical shock and short-circuit, so in the drive circuit design the protective measures of each kind of state will be taken into account so that to improve the circuit’s reliability, thereby to reduce the repair rate. PTC can help AC power to achieve over-current and short circuit protection, and MOV will be existed for over electric shock and surge protection. PTC + TVS series can reach for the integrated over-voltage and over-current protection at the input port of DC power, the surface mount fuse of LED light series can achieve load overcurrent or circuit fault protection.

As showed in picture from LangTuo Electronics, the measures can be used for input and output protection of the switch mode power supply (SMPS) and an integrated LED driver.

PPTC is also a overcurrent protection device which can be installed in series in the same position on power input so that to prevent from shorting the circuit , overloading current or harm caused by wrong uses. In addition, to place a MOV at the input side can also provide the overvoltage protection for the LED modules.

The combined use of MOV and GDT ----- many equipment manufacturers tend to use joint protection circuit, they combined the reset PPTC device with the lightning protection on upper reaches together.

LED drivers are also vulnerable under damage of improper of DC voltage and polarity. The output side may be damaged as shorted without attention. Power Interface will also be damaged by the same over-voltage of transient voltage, and also by the impact of ESD. Driver input provides a simple and traditional clamp diode which can also provide reverse bias protection and over-current protection against transients. 

Summary:

PPTC device which can be reset can prevent from the damage caused by the over-current or high temperature in the LED lighting applications. MOV + GDT (LT-B5G600L) overvoltage protection device can help manufacturers meet a range of safety control requirements in security administration, while providing the capacity of high current handling and energy absorption, as well as the rapid response for transient overvoltage . ESD protection device can prevent from the ESD problems while maintain low capacitance
