Inspired by printed circuit boards, the building block of all electronics, a Dutch designer has created an LED-based light installation that draws upon the familiar etching pattern inside most ...

In the industry, I have found that an LED ballast circuit is really more like an AC/DC power supply than like a traditional fluorescent ballast circuit. Today in fluorescent lighting, one need ...

How to design LED streetlamp driver circuits In many consumer applications for lighting the cost of existing technology – namely incandescent light bulbs or fluorescent tubes – is so low that LED ...

Circuit Protection Requirements All LED drivers need various devices in multiple locations (Fig.2) to protect the circuitry from overvoltage and overcurrent events. Today, there are a few key industry ...

Discover the step-by-step process of creating a powerful music reactive LED strip circuit in this comprehensive tutorial.

The Fig. 1 example includes LED loads D1 + D2, D3 + D4, D5 + D6 and a power-supply output voltage, with a constant output current, providing the circuit input voltage (V IN).

LED circuits with current-limitingresistors find extensive use aspower indicators and for debugging circuits (Reference 1). In some cases, however,your design may require a differentapproach. Bipolar ...

Suppose we want to drive an LED string with 400 mA. Drivers U1 and U2 (MAX16803) are good for automotive use because they have a high input-voltage range, excellent thermal qualities, and the ...
