This resource provides clear explanations of how switching regulators work and how voltage boosting is achieved efficiently ...

This app note provides a simple circuit to drive high brightness LEDs. It requires minimum external components and it provides both linear and PWM dimming. Ideal for Osram, Lumileds, Cree, and Nichia ...

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 ...

So, your company has decided that it has either found a niche market or an industrial customer(s) with a sufficiently large volume to justify a business case for some kind of LED lighting. Now what?

LED-driver circuits can be dimmed by applying a variable duty cycle (pulse-width modulation, or PWM) to the LED. PWM exploits LED behavior: At higher current levels, the LED’s light output is higher ...

The advent of LED lighting in the past few years has now matured to the point where sweeping changes exist in the way we think about illumination. LED lighting was once the darling of scientists and ...

When designing a handheld device with a colour display using white LEDs for backlighting, is it better to use parallel or series connected LEDs? Both architectures have their own advantages when you ...

Electrical components, like motors close motorA device which spins when current flows through it. Motors are used in fans, food processors and many other devices. and lamps close lampA component which ...
