To emulate the natural soft start of an incandescent bulb, this circuit makes use of the thermal-foldback protection built into an LED-driver IC (MAX16832). It thereby avoids the annoying and almost ...

There are many applications for LED lighting, from simple incandescent or CCFL lamp replacement to new opportunities in architectural, industrial, medical, and other applications. Each of these ...

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 ...

Light emitting diodes (LEDs) are low-voltage light sources that require a constant DC voltage or current to operate optimally. Because they operate on a low-voltage DC power supply, they easily adapt ...

Infineon Technologies AG has introduced the new LED driver IC ILD8150/E. It features an innovative hybrid dimming mode technology for achieving 0.5% of the target current. With a supply voltage range ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are semiconductor devices that emit light when an electrical current passes through ...
