High-powered LEDs are used in a growing number of applications, including automotive lighting, camera-phone flash, entertainment lighting, location lighting, landscape lighting, flashlights, bicycle ...

We know that LED is a two terminal semiconductor device. It is used in most of the electronic circuits as a sign or visual representation to the normal human to know that circuit is working properly.

Automotive incandescent bulbs have largely given way to more efficient, reliable, stylish, and even safer light emitting diodes (LEDs). LEDs turn on in a fraction of the time and are especially useful ...

In a previous article, I discussed LEDs in general and their properties. In this write-up, I want to give some examples of driving LEDs and comparing a few of the most commonly used methods. There is ...

Frank Hertel’s project: three individually dimmable LED lights. (Frank is the master of recycling; the wooden mounting pedestals are the panels from a decommissioned ATI console!) Thanks for your ...

You’ve probably heard of light-emitting diodes, a type of energy-efficient light. While they’re good for practical reasons—say, illuminating a room or a passageway—they can also add a little bling to ...

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 ...

Nearly all lighting applications today use LEDs. In a relatively short amount of time, they have become established as the preferred choice of illumination. However, in most applications, an LED can’t ...
