Abstract: A driving circuit includes a DC-to-DC voltage converter, a current source, a detector and a feedback control circuit. The DC-to-DC voltage converter has a switch and generates a driving voltage on first ends of the series of light emitting diodes, in which a magnitude of the driving voltage is correlated with conduction of the switch. The current source is coupled to second ends of the series of the light emitting diodes and provides driving currents flowing through the light emitting diodes. The detector generates a feedback voltage corresponding to a sum of voltages on the second ends of the series of the light emitting diodes. The feedback control circuit generates a first control signal which controls the conduction of the switch in response to the feedback voltage.

Abstract: A current biasing circuit is provided, which is designed to suppress reference current drift caused by temperature variation with a low overall temperature coefficient of a constant-voltage circuit and at least one resistor. The constant-voltage circuit comprises a diode and/or a diode-connected transistor. This current biasing circuit is based on a current mirror architecture, is easy to implement, and is a relatively temperature-independent current source.

Abstract: The invention provides a switching audio power amplifier with de-noise function including a pulse width modulator, a de-noise circuit and a bridge circuit. The pulse width modulator performs pulse width moderation to generate the first and second PWM signals according to an input audio signal. The de-noise circuit receives the first and second PWM signals. And the bridge circuit conducts a driving current alternately flowing to and from a load according to the control signals output from the de-noise circuit.

Abstract: An audio system with power-on/off noise suppression and an audio amplifier thereof are disclosed. The audio system includes a front stage circuit and an audio amplifier. The front stage circuit is powered by a first supply voltage and outputs an audio signal. The audio amplifier amplifies the audio signal to drive a load. When a level of the first supply voltage drops below a threshold, the audio amplifier is disabled.
