Claim:
1. A linear dimming LED driver circuit capable of adjusting color temperature, used in a lamp of a down light or a tube light to drive a plurality of LED strings to emit light, and the linear dimming LED driver circuit being composed of a dimming module, a rectification module, a control module and an output module, and the rectification module being electrically coupled to an external power supply through the dimming module, and the control module being electrically coupled to the output module, and the output module being electrically coupled to the LED strings, and the control module including a control chip, a regulator and a sensing resistor installed therein, and the LED strings being coupled to the control chip through the regulator and the sensing resistor, such that the sensing resistor senses a driving current passing through the LED strings and then forms a sensed value to be fed back to the control chip, and provided for the control chip to compare the sensed value with a reference value, so as to control the regulator to regulate the driving current, characterized in that the output module includes a switch, the LED strings have a total forward bias voltage falling within a range of 129 volts to 135 volts, and the LED strings are at least divided into a first string, a second string, a third string, a fourth string and a fifth string, and an end of the fourth string is coupled to the third string and the fifth string, and the other end of the fourth string is coupled to the first string and the second string, and the first string, the second string and the third string is coupled to an output end of the switch, and the second string and the third string are formed by ultra blue LEDs; the output module is provided for switching the switch to conduct the first string, the second string or the third string and then changing the color temperature of the light emission of the lamp, so that the control module will adjust the light emitting brightness of the lamp for better dimming range and work performance of the whole circuit if a driving voltage is in a mono sinusoidal voltage section greater than or equal to 129 volts and smaller than or equal to 135 volts, wherein the regulator and the sensing resistor are serially connected.
