Abstract

The present invention provides a light emitting diode (LED) driving device, which comprises: a direct current/direct current (DC/DC) controller, for controlling an output segment that is used to generate an output voltage from an input voltage and supply the output voltage to an LED; an output current driver, for generating an output current of the LED; and an output discharging circuit, for performing, based on a predetermined control signal, discharging of the output voltage when a generation action of the output voltage and the output current stops.
