Module of the LED traffic signal is the core component for the care of driver and walker. Also it is important one to control the traffic. If it is against the criteria of brightness, it is the source of the people's death and traffic congestion. Therefore, it is a list of articles desired the security of stability. However, there is not the analysis of failure and not preserve the uniformity of quality. Therefore, it is necessary to establish the criteria of appreciation for the module of the LED traffic signal to analysis the data of failure. In this paper, we investigate the performance test, environment field test and test of reliability appreciation to improve the reliability. We also set up the criteria of success decision using the real measurement data.

This paper focuses on the Current-Voltage concurrent control method devoted to the multiple LED (light-emitting diode) string driver. Isolated DC to DC converter with cascaded chopping switch is proposed for smart lighting system such as light with sensor or back light unit of display, which need to control the current of parallel connected multiple LED stings and regulate DC voltage for micro controller for brightness control. The proposed circuit regulates the current of parallel connected multiple LED strings and additional DC voltage output simultaneously. To verify the performance, experimental results are presented based on the prototype board. 5V, 1A voltage mode electric load and two LED strings with different forward voltages are used for output loads. 23W output power is achieved and measured efficiency is in the range of 85%-87%

In the 21st century, in which the accident rate is rapidly increasing in proportion to the development of automobiles, In order to reduce the number of accidents, this paper was written for the convenience of the elderly people with disabilities and the handicapped. When a driver's safety accidents and various signals are transmitted through a smart phone by voice, the voice signal is processed as a video signal through the rear LED pannel of the vehicle, so that an urgent situation or a current state can be clarified It is also possible to use the local area network as a billboard and I would like to propose a study to show the advertising effect and current traffic situation.

현재 폭넓은 시장을 형성하고 있는 LED는 전 세계적으로 이슈화 되고 있는 친환경 조명기기로 각광받고 있으며, 향후 조명 산업의 50% 이상 시장 점유율을 차지할 것으로 예상된다. 본 논문에서는 Analog Dimming을 이용하여 Single-stage LED 구동 회로를 제안한다. 제안된 회로는 기존 방식과 달리 DC/DC단이 없으므로 가격 경쟁력 및 높은 전력 변환 효율을 확보할 수 있고, 고조파 규제 만족을 위한 역률 보정 기능이 있으며 휘도를 선형적으로 제어할 수 있는 Analog Dimming 기능을 가지고 있다. 최종적으로 제안된 Single-stage LED 구동 회로의 동작 및 Analog Dimming 제어 기법을 소개하고, 시뮬레이션 및 40W급 시작품을 제작, 동작 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 검증한다.

본 논문에서는 백열등 조도 조절용 조광기에 호환 가능한 LED 구동회로를 제안한다. 조광기와 일반적인 LED 구동회로를 연결할 경우 트라이악(Triac)의 오동작에 의해 플리커(Flicker) 현상이 발생하는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 트라이악의 오동작을 방지하기 위해서는 트라이악에 일정 크기 이상의 전류가 인가되어야 하며 이를 만족하기 위한 조광기 호환회로가 필수적이다. 이러한 호환회로로써 수동 블리더(Passive Bleeder)는 전 동작 구간에서 전력소모가 발생하는 단점을 지니고 있다. 본 논문의 제안회로는 역률 만족을 위 해 Valley-fill 회로를 적용하였으며 트라이악의 오동작 시점을 정확히 검출하여 새로운 방식의 능동 블리더(Active Bleeder)를 적용함으로써 조광기의 오동작을 방지하면서 수동 블리더에 비해 효율이 개선되는 장점을 지닌다. 또한, Valley-fill과 인덕터를 적용한 1단 구성으로 효율개선 및 역률 개선의 장점과 입력 전류 리플의 감소로 인한 EMI 노이즈 저감 효과를 나타낸다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 회로의 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 13W급 조명용 LED 구동회로의 시작품 제작을 통해 그 우수성을 확인한다.

In this paper, the new efficient drive control technology based on the conventional full-color electric display board image processing method is proposed. This technology can be applied to high-fidelity large size panel TV and LCD Display, and makes high-fidelity-display-drive control possible in those. The proposed drive control technology can strengthen the image processing function of the conventional technology. Also, the automatic or manual adjustment of contrast, bright, tint, color, gamma revision, etc. can help to achieve high-fidelity vision. This technology can be adopted with lower price.

In this study, we have studied a system to reduce the inconvenience and the accident rate at the intersection when the visually impaired use traffic information by using pressure sensor and ultrasonic sensor. By using the pressure sensor to light the strip LED, the driver recognizes the pedestrian, thereby reducing the accident rate. In addition to the pedestrian signal light information, the ultrasonic sensor and Bluetooth transmit the bus position information to the application so that the user can listen to the voice.

Recently, LED light has been increasingly adopted for vehicles in both domestic and foreign automotive markets, while a variety of LED lights have been developed to be used particularly for headlamps. In this paper, we propose an H-type resonant snubber circuit topology for high efficiency of vehicle LDM (LED Driver Module) and realized LDM functions for vehicle headlamp by designing high-efficiency convertors. In addition, this study reduced the financial burden by configuring the system to control the whole with micom except for the use of individual dedicated chips to drive LED for high and low beam. In order to verify the validity of the proposed H-type resonant snubber capable of soft switching, simulations were performed using PSIM. As a result, the validity was experimentally verified by creating a prototype. Moreover, in order to actually attach the headlamp, the performance of the proposed convertor was confirmed by designing LDM to the limited size. Communications between the headlamp and higher controller were realized using LIN(Local Interconnect Network).

This paper presents a LLC resonant controller IC for secondary side control without external active devices to achieve low profile and low cost LED back light units. A gate driving transformer is adopted to isolate the primary side and the secondary side instead of an opto-coupler. A new integrated dimming circuitry is proposed to improve the dynamic current control characteristic and the current density of a LED for the brightness modulation of a large screen LCD. A dual-slope clock generator is proposed to overcome the frequency error due to the under shoot in conventional approaches. This chip is fabricated using 0.35 ${\mu}m$ BCD technology and the die size is $2{\times}2\;mm^2$. The frequency range of the clock generator is from 50 kHz to 500 kHz and the range of the dead time is from 50 ns to 2.2 ${\mu}s$. The efficiency of the LED driving circuit is 97 % and the current consumption is 40 mA for a 100 kHz operation frequency from a 15 V supply voltage.

This paper is to introduce a lighting source controller using high brightness LED to create a clear and reliable condition for an accurate measurement and testing, which is a core technology in clinical image system and mechanical automation system. This controller is designed to supply a stable power in a constant-current system by installing a high brightness LED driver, and to improve the reproducibility of brightness by using 32-bit ARM processor core, dividing brightness quantity into 256 levels, making the remote control and the external interface possible, and preventing and digitizing the brightness inaccuracy caused by errors of resistance values. This controller enables the lighting range to be wide and possible in a low lighting level compared to analog, adds the RS-485 communication function, and makes it for the users to control the on-off function and the dimming level by receiving date from an external device.
