An LED-driver reference design for an LED replacement of 100W incandescent bulbs has been introduced by Power Integrations, writes Richard WIlson. An LED-driver reference design for an LED replacement ...

Since the earliest versions of indoor LED light bulbs were developed, their designers have faced a variety of technical challenges. These include AC-to-DC power conversion, thermal design/heat-sinking ...

Designers of early indoor LED light bulbs faced numerous technical hurdles, including AC-to-DC conversion, thermal heat-sinking, constraints imposed by current bulb sizes, electrical transients, and ...

The new driving force for the growth of white LED lighting is quite simple: lower energy consumption and much lower energy bills. By some calculations, the transition from traditional incandescent and ...

[Petteri Aimonen] created an omnidirectional LED safety light to cling to his child’s winter hat in an effort to increase visibility during the dark winter months, but the design is also great example ...

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 ...

Light-emitting diodes have become the lighting source of choice for almost all illumination applications. Incandescents, fluorescents, CFLs, and other types are fading away in favor of the almighty ...
