In many consumer applications for lighting the cost of existing technology – namely incandescent light bulbs or fluorescent tubes – is so low that LED lighting’s many advantages simply cannot make up ...

Part 2: A 60V buck-boost controller drives high power LEDs, charges batteries and regulates voltage with up to 98.5% efficiency at 100W and higher. Part 3: Offline LED lighting simplified: A high ...

Consumer demand and government initiatives to phase out inefficient lighting technologies are pushing expansion of LED lighting. Designers of these devices must satisfy not only end users, but also ...

Light-emitting diodes are often used with a voltage source from a power-supply output voltage. The output voltage increases until the current through the LEDs reaches the value of the constant-current ...

The design of luminaires for solid-state lighting is still part black art. The best approach starts with the light output and an artistic arrangement of LEDs. So, your company has decided that it has ...

Lighting a string of LEDs at a constant brightness requires driving it with a regulated current. A boost converter is commonly used to step up the voltage to a level high enough to bias the LEDs on ...

Diodes introduces the AL58818Q and AL58812Q, a new series of automotive-compliant 18- and 12-channel linear LED drivers.

Linear constantcurrent drivers, for instance, offer low EMI, low cost, and use only a few components. Many designers favor them for low-current applications where power loss is a minor concern. If ...

Discover the step-by-step process of creating a powerful music reactive LED strip circuit in this comprehensive tutorial. This video will guide you through the essential components and techniques ...

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Circuit board design startup Quilter announced on Tuesday it raised $10 million, saying it would use artificial intelligence to reduce the time to design components ...
