Diodes Incorporated today announced the release of the AL8806 buck LED driver, capable of producing a constant current of up to 1.5A from voltage sources of between 6V and 30V. Suiting MR16, 12V and ...

Recent breakthroughs in LED technology have enabled LEDs with a broad spectrum of light output to be produced and not just the traditional red and green derivatives. Hence the sheer numbers of LEDs ...

There are many power management methods that can be used for LED lighting. You can drive them via a number of dedicated driver ICs available on the market, or even use microcontroller units (MCUs) for ...

Most small-size color LCD displays today use white LEDs for backlighting. These systems usually involve handheld devices with an LED drive circuit powered by a battery whose output voltage varies over ...

Oh God, here we go....<BR><BR>LED's are current devices, not voltage devices. If the LED you have has a 3V voltage drop, then subtract the 3V from your source and use that voltage to calculate the ...

In this article, I would like to talk a little bit about LEDs, including why they will become the lighting source of choice, how to power them and also, how to protect them from the hazards they face ...

Power Integrations has published a reference design (DER-297) describing a high efficiency, ultra compact driver for a B10 style led light bulb. Based on the company's LinkSwitch-PL non isolated, ...

“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” At least, that was my thought process when I received this MTH Premier Norfolk & ...

144 LEDs total. Three sets of 48 in series connected in parallel. My problem is I don't know what value to use for R1. I'm thinking 600 ohm, but I really don't know how to calculate this. I'm making ...
