In many consumer applications for lighting the cost of existing technology – namely incandescent light bulbs or fluorescent tubes – is so low that LED lighting’s many advantages simply cannot make up ...

Part 2: A 60V buck-boost controller drives high power LEDs, charges batteries and regulates voltage with up to 98.5% efficiency at 100W and higher. Part 3: Offline LED lighting simplified: A high ...

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 devices ...

Developed to control open defects in LEDs, the company’s anti-fuse device prevents the lowering of power supply voltage, typically observed in Zener diodes, which results in higher energy efficiency.

There is much interest in LED-based lighting due to the availability of high-power, high-efficiency white—and other-color—LEDs (Reference 1). Because an LED is a current-controlled device, typical ...

A miniaturized driver manages red, green, blue, and white LEDs for maximum impact with minimal system CPU burden.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb 13 (Reuters) - Circuit board design startup Quilter announced on Tuesday it raised $10 million, saying it would use artificial intelligence to reduce the time to design components ...

Lighting a string of LEDs at a constant brightness requires driving it with a regulated current. A boost converter is commonly used to step up the voltage to a level high enough to bias the LEDs on ...

Teardowns of cheap electronic devices can produce results that are interesting, horrifying, or both, especially when mains power is involved. [bigclivedotcom] gave a minimalist LED lamp his reverse ...
