This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. LED-based lighting is replacing incandescent and gas-discharge lamps in many situations. As practical lighting sources, and considering ...

One of the questions that hobbyists ask over and over is how to select the value of a current limiting resistor for an LED. Usually the seat of the pants response is: “Subtract 2 V from the supply ...

VCC has designed a series of LED sockets that feature a built-in current limiting resistor to provide optimal LED performance. VCC has designed a series of LED sockets that feature a built-in current ...

There are so many applications for power resistors that they cannot be easily tabulated. Discussed here are a few practical, useful applications that you will find interesting. First an image with ...

• The inductance in a stepper-motor phase winding limits how fast current rises when power is applied. • Series-resistor current limiting needs higher voltages for faster step rates, but higher ...
