Abstract

See full text

An LED driving circuit is provided. The LED driving circuit includes an input unit which receives an input dimming signal for driving an LED array, a PWM signal generating unit which extends an on-period of the input dimming signal to form an extended dimming signal, and generates a PWM signal using the extended dimming signal, a DC-DC converter which supplies output voltage to the LED array using the PWM signal, and an LED driving unit which drives the LED array using the input dimming signal.
