Abstract
The ballast circuit for a light-emitting diode (LED lamp) includes a surge absorber circuit that includes a capacitor (C3) and a resistor (R3) serially connected between both ends of the bridge diode (BD), a resistor (R5) and a capacitor (C4) serially connected with each other, and a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR), the SCR being connected to the resistor (R5) and capacitor (C4) in parallel, the resistor (R5), capacitor (C4) and silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) being connected to the positive (+) terminal of the bridge diode (BD), thereby protecting the LED from a surge occurring. LED arrays connected to an output terminal of the surge absorber circuit, each array having a plurality of forward LEDs and LED arrays connected to the negative (−) terminal of the bridge diode (BD), each array having a plurality of reverse LEDs, the reverse LEDs being connected serially with one other.
