DC to DC Cree XM-L T6 10 watt LED driver Circuit

For a battery functioned circuit the LED driver could possibly be made by means of a current controller stage, simply because here voltage regulation is not crucial which enables it to be discarded.

According to the above demand, the Cree XM-L T6 LED driver will have to be operated from a 3.7V/3amp source, with a 3-way switchable dimmer manage service.
The design might be executed making use of the following transistorized current control stage. Even though it's not just one that is often economical of the designs, the easy gains over the slight inefficiency.





Talking about the above diagram, the design is a fundamental current controlled stage where T2 establishes the maximum current limit of T1 by managing the base potential of T1.
Whenever the circuit is turned on, T1 is activated by means of R1 illuminating the LED. The method permits the whole current used by the LED to go through considered one of the chosen resistors (R2, R3, or R4) to ground.
This encourages a proportionate quantity of voltage across this current sensing resistor, which often types the initiating voltage for the base of T2.
If this type of felt voltage surpasses 0.7V, T2 is compelled to cause and ground the base potential of T1, thus restricting its conduction, and eventually restricting power to the LED.
The LED has become forced to turn off, in spite of this the method as the LED attempts to turn off moreover it starts reducing the voltage across the specific base resistor of T2.
T2 at this point encounters a lack of initiating voltage and switches OFF, repairing the LED returning to its original condition by means of T1, until again the constraint method is begun which goes on, sustaining a current managed illumination over the associated LED, that could be a Cree XM-L 10 watt lamp in this instance.
At this point R4 needs to be chosen to permit the LED to illuminate with optimal usage (max brightness), which is at its rated 3 amp level....R2 and R3 might be chosen to provide some other preferred lower current operation (lower intensity) to the LED such that by choosing these types of generates three various intensity levels for the LED.
Components List
T1 = TIP 41 (on heatsink)
T2 = TIP 31 (on heatsink)
R1 might be determined by utilizing the following formula:
R1 = (Us - LEDv) x hFe / LED current
= (3.5 - 3.3) x 25 / 3 = 1.66 ohms
Wattage of the resistor = (3.5 - 3.3) x 3 = 0.6 watts or 1 watt
R2, R3, R4 might be determined as:
Low Intensity = R2 = 0.7/1 = 0.7 ohms, wattage = 0.7 x 1 = 0.7 watts or 1 watt
Average Intensity R3 = 0.7/2 = 0.35 ohms, wattage = 0.7 x 2 = 1.4 watts
Optimal Intensity = R4 = 0.7/3 = 0.23 ohms, wa ttage = 0.7 x 3 = 2.1 watts
