Diodes Incorporated today announced the release of the AL8806 buck LED driver, capable of producing a constant current of up to 1.5A from voltage sources of between 6V and 30V. Suiting MR16, 12V and ...

Recent breakthroughs in LED technology have enabled LEDs with a broad spectrum of light output to be produced and not just the traditional red and green derivatives. Hence the sheer numbers of LEDs ...

There are many power management methods that can be used for LED lighting. You can drive them via a number of dedicated driver ICs available on the market, or even use microcontroller units (MCUs) for ...

Oh God, here we go....<BR><BR>LED's are current devices, not voltage devices. If the LED you have has a 3V voltage drop, then subtract the 3V from your source and use that voltage to calculate the ...

Cree, Inc. announces the availability of brighter Cree® XLamp XT-E and XM-L High-Voltage LEDs to provide manufacturers more efficient, cost-effective components. Cree, Inc. announces the availability ...

144 LEDs total. Three sets of 48 in series connected in parallel. My problem is I don't know what value to use for R1. I'm thinking 600 ohm, but I really don't know how to calculate this. I'm making ...

[mircemk] built a slick-looking LED tester with a couple handy functions built in. Not only can one select a target current to put through an LED, but by providing a target voltage, the system will ...
