An LED-driver reference design for an LED replacement of 100W incandescent bulbs has been introduced by Power Integrations, writes Richard WIlson. An LED-driver reference design for an LED replacement ...
Designers of early indoor LED light bulbs faced numerous technical hurdles, including AC-to-DC conversion, thermal heat-sinking, constraints imposed by current bulb sizes, electrical transients, and ...
LED-based bulbs that replace their incandescent counterparts require a significant amount of engineering (Fig. 1). In the 60 W range the LED driver board can take up about 15% of the overall cost of ...
For several years manufacturers have been introducing LED bulbs onto the market with the eventual goal of replacing incandescent and CFL lamps. The design of these lamps has evolved from very simple ...
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, ...
