LEDs for lighting are found anywhere from DIY IoT modules to commercial lighting applications and the cabins of airplanes. To run properly, these critical lighting devices require a precise balance of ...

The MAX6946/MAX6947 I²C-/SMBus™-compatible, serial-interfaced peripherals provide microprocessors with 10 I/O ports rated to 7V. Each port can be configured as a 2.5mA to 20mA constant-current LED ...

Predicting simpler designs, the CL320, CL325, and CL330 LED drivers provide three channels of constant current output, capable of powering three LED strings at currents of 20 mA, 25 mA, and 30 mA each ...

Typical uses today include backlighting for LCD TVs, projectors, computer displays, camera flashes, and vehicle brake lights. All need constant-current LED drivers that are economical and offer high ...

[Peter] needed to drive a high power LED for his microscope. Rather than pick up a commercial LED driver, he built a simple constant current LED driver and fan control. We’ve featured [Peter’s] ...

High-brightness LEDs are an inexpensive, robust, and green replacement for halogen light bulbs. This Idea for Design shows you how to apply an AC LED driver to convert the usual 12 or 24 V AC ...
