Featuring small size, long battery life, and low power consumption, LEDs are expected to be used in a variety of new applications as a next-generation lighting source. With remarkable improvements in ...

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 ...

Typical requirements for industrial LEDs. Designing an LED gate driver using an industrial digital input chip. Ruggedness characteristics of the new gate driver. Industrial control systems universally ...

[Petteri Aimonen] created an omnidirectional LED safety light to cling to his child’s winter hat in an effort to increase visibility during the dark winter months, but the design is also great example ...

Nearly all lighting applications today use LEDs. In a relatively short amount of time, they have become established as the preferred choice of illumination. However, in most applications, an LED can’t ...

LED luminaires require precise power and heat management because LEDs convert most of the electrical energy they receive into heat rather than light. Without adequate thermal management, this heat can ...
