Every LED or light-emitting diode requires a driver. This driver is responsible for regulating the power to a LED or strings of LEDs. It converts higher voltage, alternating current to a low voltage, ...

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 ...

Diodes has released simple LED driving chips for regulating current in strings of LEDs, particularly in cars and other road vehicles – some of which match parts from Infineon and Nexperia (see table ...

Find a downloadable version of this story in pdf format at the end of the story. EXPONENTIAL GROWTH of LED lighting has ushered in a vast selection of integrated circuit devices to provide controlled ...

Driver-monitoring systems (DMS) are becoming common in modern automobiles. Infrared (IR) cameras, utilizing an IR-LED in combination with a photo sensor, help recognize the hazardous microsleep that ...

While consumers are replacing their incandescent bulbs with LED copies, the professional world is turning to luminaires designed from scratch to use LEDs. The production model with these luminaires is ...

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, ...
