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 ...

It has been a while since I shared LED driver experiments. I have done a lot with different LED driver topologies and drivers lately yet had no time to sit down and do a proper write-up. So, here’s a ...

Automotive incandescent bulbs have largely given way to more efficient, reliable, stylish, and even safer light emitting diodes (LEDs). LEDs turn on in a fraction of the time and are especially useful ...

Analog dimming of LEDs has key advantages, including standalone operation, without the need for additional circuitry to generate a PWM signal (such as a microcontroller) and a patent-free environment.

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 ...

Linear Technology has released the LT3965, an LED bypass switching device for dimming and diagnosing up to eight individual LEDs or LED segments. The LT3965 works in conjunction with an LED driver ...

[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 ...

After deliberating for a while, I finally decided to install my own street light on the path leading to my home. A lamppost is actually already there but with a small fluorescent bulb that burned out ...
