Abstract

An LED driving system with a master-slave architecture. The LED driving system has at least two LED driving circuits which both have a first status detecting circuit, a second status detecting circuit and a first feedback control circuit. The first status detecting circuit receives a plurality of headroom detecting voltages provided by a plurality of LED strings and generates at least one self-status signal. The second status detecting circuit receives a downstream feedback signal and generates at least one downstream status signal. The first feedback control circuit generates a first feedback control signal based on the at least one self-status signal and the at least one downstream status signal. The second status detecting circuit of one LED driving circuit is coupled to the first feedback control circuit of the other LED driving circuit.
