Abstract (en)

A controlling part of an LED driver circuit controls a first switch element with a first on-duty ratio if a first terminal voltage is lower than a preset first upper limit value, controls the first switch element with a second on-duty ratio smaller than the first on-duty ratio if the first terminal voltage reaches the first upper limit value, controls a second switch element with a third on-duty ratio if a second terminal voltage is lower than a preset second upper limit value, and controls the second switch element with a fourth on-duty ratio smaller than the third on-duty ratio if the second terminal voltage reaches the second upper limit value.
