Abstract: The present invention relates to a double-output high-efficiency LED light-modulating circuit, comprising: a single-stage flyback power factor corrector, a DC/DC convertor, an LED module, and a light-modulating switch. In the present invention, it mainly utilizes the single-stage flyback power factor corrector for carrying out the purposes of reducing the components of an LED luminaire controlling circuit and increasing the circuit power conversion efficiency. Moreover, the double-output high-efficiency LED light-modulating circuit further includes a twin-bus light modulation framework, which can not only reduce the cross voltage of the power switch in back-end DC/DC convertor, but also process a high-frequency light modulation and a low-frequency light modulation to the LED luminaire. Therefore, because the cross voltage of the power switch has been reduced, a power switch with lower Rds can be used in the back-end DC/DC convertor for increasing switching speed and reducing switching losses.
