LED driver and illumination system related to the same

1. A driver for connecting to a power line and a ground power line, comprising:

a buffer layer, comprising a GaN based material;

a bridge rectifier formed on the buffer layer, comprising a rectifying diode; and

a constant current source formed on the buffer layer, wherein the first constant current source is connected between the power line and the ground power line to provide a constant current.

2. The driver according to claim 1 , further comprising a high electron mobility transistor within the constant current source, wherein the high electron mobility transistor has a first arm, a gate area, and a second arm on a side of the gate area opposite to the first arm.

3. The driver according to claim 2 , wherein the first arm, the gate area and the second arm are patterned from a same metal layer.

4. A driver, comprising:

a bridge rectifier;

a first thermistor and a second thermistor, wherein the second thermistor has a temperature coefficient different from that of the first thermistor;

a first constant current source connected to the first thermistor in parallel;

a second constant current source connected to the second thermistor in parallel; and

a third constant current source;

wherein the bridge rectifier includes an end connected to the first constant current source, the second constant current source and the third constant current source.

5. The driver according to claim 4 , wherein the first thermistor has a positive temperature coefficient.

6. The driver according to claim 4 , further comprising an enhance mode high electron mobility transistor within the first constant current source, wherein the enhance mode high electron mobility transistor has a cover layer, an insulation layer, and a modification area.

7. The driver according to claim 6 , wherein the modification area has a width narrower than that of the insulation layer.
