Abstract

The present invention discloses a LED luminance control circuit comprising one or several LEDs and a driving circuit, the driving circuit being connected in series with said one or several LEDs to provide energy to the one or several LEDs, wherein a control circuit is connected in parallel on both terminals of said one or several LEDs and controls on/off of the LEDs connected in parallel thereto. Connections between the several LEDs may be in parallel, in series, or combination thereof. The present invention also discloses an LED backlight source of a liquid crystal display using the above LED luminance control circuit. The present invention can implement the luminance control of various power LEDs quickly on basis of simplicity and low cost without influence on the luminance of other LEDs, by individual luminance control for every one or several LEDs, so as to solve some display technical problems when using LEDs as a display device.
