Every LED or light-emitting diode requires a driver. This driver is responsible for regulating the power to a LED or strings of LEDs. It converts higher voltage, alternating current to a low voltage, ...

At the Strategies in Light Europe conference, Texas Instruments Incorporated introduced two highly integrated, phase-dimmable AC/DC LED lighting drivers, LM3448 and TPS92070, for use in solid state ...

Light-emitting diodes have become the lighting source of choice for almost all illumination applications. Incandescents, fluorescents, CFLs, and other types are fading away in favor of the almighty ...

The quest for energy efficiency has led manufacturers to investigate ways of dimming all kinds of lighting technologies, including those that usually can’t be dimmed. Consider, for example, ...

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 ...

It all started when [Damien Walsh] got his hands on some surplus LED boards. Each panel contained 100 mini-PCBs hosting a single bright LED that were meant to be to be snapped apart as needed. [Damien ...
