1. A bi-directional light emitting diode drive circuit in pulsed power series resonance, which uses the capacitive impedance component to constitute the first impedance and inductive impedance component to constitute the second impedance, whereof the inherent series resonance of the first impedance and second impedance in series connection is the same as the pulse period of the input pulsed power, thereby to generate a series resonance status;

  • in the series resonance, the bi-directional divided power in series resonance is formed across the two ends of the capacitive impedance component or the inductive impedance component, thereby to drive the bi-directional conducting light emitting diode set which is parallel connected across the two ends of either the first impedance or the second impedance to emit light;

    wherein the bi-directional light emitting diode drive circuit (U100) is comprised of at least one first impedance which is constituted by capacitive impedance components, at least one second impedance which is constituted by inductive impedance components, and at least one bi-directional light emitting diode set which is constituted by parallel connected at least one first light emitting diode and at least one second light emitting diode in inverse polarity and is parallel connected across the two ends of at least one first impedance or at least one second impedance, whereof the two ends of the first impedance and the second impedance in series connection are for inputting;

    1) DC pulsed power;

    or2) The DC pulsed power with constant or variable voltage and constant or variable periods converted from DC power source;

    or3) The DC pulsed power with constant or variable voltage and constant or variable periods converted from DC power which is further rectified from AC power;

    or4) The half-wave or full-wave DC pulsed power rectified from AC power with constant or variable voltage and constant or variable frequency;

    The bi-directional divided power in series resonance formed by the first and second impedances in series resonance is used to drive at least one bi-directional conducting light emitting diode set which is parallel connected across two ends of either the first impedance or the second impedance, or to drive at least two bi-directional conducting light emitting diode sets which are respectively parallel connected across the two ends of the first impedance and the second impedance to receive the divided power across the two ends of the first impedance and the two ends of the second impedance thereby to constitute the said bi-directional light emitting diode drive circuit in pulsed power series resonance;
