In order to provide LCD backlight with multiple strings of LEDs, an LED driver based on MCU is proposed in the paper. A PWM signal is generated by the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) module on the MCU chip, which is used to drive a DC-DC boost converter for LED power. The voltage and current of the boost circuit, along with all the channels current of LED, are measured by the Analog Digital Converter (ADC) module on the MCU chip, which are used to adjust the voltage of the boost circuit and supply comprehensive protection for the LED driver. To minimize the step size of the output voltage, the joint frequency-pulse width modulation scheme is proposed to regulate the output voltage of the boost circuit to an ideal value in the range of error, which increases the efficiency of the power. The measurement results show that the LED driver is extremely efficient and steady. Most of the output voltage step size is about 0.1 V, the maximum step size is less than 0.3 V. The conversion efficiency of the DC-DC converter is up to 94%. Thus the LED driver not only meets the demand of the parameter of LED, but also has high cost performance.
