Solid-state lighting (SSL) differs from conventional lighting in that it uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) instead of filaments, plasma, or gases. Although still relatively early in its development, ...

This is a very simple LED dimmer circuit which has 2 transistors, 1 resistor and 2 potentiometers. Typical segment displays LEDs consume around 25 mA for each segment and should be limited to this ...

LED driver designs can deliver flicker-free and fast startup dimming performance while still providing high power factor and efficiency, writes Rich Miron Dimming performance of LED lamps in legacy ...

There’s no shortage of debate about the “Internet of Things”, largely centered on security and questions about how much anyone really needs to be able to turn on their porch light from the other side ...

Fairchild announced the FL7734 Phase-Cut Dimmable Single- Stage LED Driver, a highly integrated LED controller solution for low-cost, and highly reliable LED lighting solutions from 5 W to 30 W.

Lights are an integral part of any home. With lighting being some of the important components in any home, users might be tempted to spice things up a little bit. Smart home systems are only now ...

However LEDs are dimmed – be it by 1 – 10 V analogue voltage, mains phase angle, power-line, digital inputs such as DALI, or a WLAN link, there is in fact only two ways to actually dim the output of a ...
