    Abstract:

    This paper proposes a method for characterizing the junction temperature of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) by using two parameters, and the selected reference method is used to eliminate the self-heating effect of white LEDs. The constant current source is used to drive, which improves the practicability and reduces the measurement cost. The junction temperature of cold and warm white LED is measured with a small current of 50—400 mA as the driving current. The studied ambient temperature range is 30—80 °C. The results show that the relationship between the spectrum valley value of the calibration function, the full width at half maximum (FWHM), driving current, and junction temperature can be combined with a high degree of the fitting. Compared with the measurement results of the forward voltage method, the maximum error of the measurement of the two-parameter joint characterization junction temperature method is only 2.38 °C. It is a low-cost, practical, and effective junction temperature measurement method for white LEDs.
