| Abstract: | Multi-channel LED drivers are crucial for high-power lighting applications. Maintaining a constant average forward current is essential for stable LED luminous intensity, necessitating drivers capable of consistent current delivery across wide operating ranges. Meanwhile, achieving precise current sharing among channels without incurring high costs and system complexity is a significant challenge. Leveraging the constant-current characteristics of the LCL-T network, this paper presents a multi-channel DC/DC LED driver comprising a full-bridge inverter, a transformer, and a passive resonant rectifier. The driver generates a high-frequency AC bus with series-connected diode rectifiers, a structure that guarantees excellent current sharing among all output channels using only a single control loop. Fully considering the impact of higher harmonics, this paper derives an exact solution for the output current. A step-by-step parameter design methodology ensures soft switching and enhanced switch utilization. Finally, experimental verification was conducted using a prototype with five channels and 200 W, confirming the correctness and accuracy of the theoretical analysis. The experimental results showed that within a wide input voltage range of 380 V to 420 V, the driver was able to provide a stable current of 700 mA to each channel, and the system could achieve a peak efficiency of up to 94.4%.
