C2000 MCU的控制多個LED串的方法

　　隨著LED技術的不斷發展，電源效率的提高和成本的節省使得LED的使用方式越來越多。同時，系統使用更多種類的LED，每種LED都需要不同的驅動，以達到最佳的性能、效率和顏色精度。汽車系統，例如，使用LED的各種功能，包括頭燈，遠光燈，霧燈，轉彎燈等-每一個需要不同類型的LED和/或不同數量的LED。

　　開發人員可以使用不同的功率級拓撲和控制方法驅動多個LED字符串。每個拓撲和控制方法都有各自的優點，這取決于應用程序。兩種常見的演示實現LED照明設計的實現，提供了兩個LED照明開發套件基于實時控制C2000 Piccolo?建筑–DC/DC LED照明開發套件和多直流/直流彩色LED開發套件。結合TI公司的業界領先的開發軟件和工具，工程師們可以使用這些工具包來加速各種照明應用的發展。

　　Power stage topologies and control methods

　　There are several common power stage design topologies and digital control methods used in the LED lighting industry. Each design implementation and control method offers its unique advantages and considerations. TI showcases two of these power stage design topologies and two accompanying control methods with its C2000 LED lighting developer’s kits.

　　Figure 1 shows the power topology for a single， shared power stage as used in the DC/DC LED Lighting Developer’s Kit. This topology utilizes a Piccolo F28035 MCU to control a single， flexible SEPIC DC/DC power stage and eight separate LED dimming stages for control of same type and same length LED strings. SEPIC is a dynamic topology which can run off a high voltage （up to 48 volts） and step up or step down the drive voltage appropriately. With this control topology， developers can precisely and independently control luminosity and color temperature of same-type/same-length LED strings. A single power stage topology is well-suited for applications such as industrial lighting where consistent output is required.
