Editors’ Note: This segment is adapted from Chapter 3 of Power Supplies for LED Driving by Steve Winder. We have seen in Chapter 2 that an LED behaves like a constant voltage load with low equivalent ...
A voltage multiplier is applied as a high source impedance, 36V, 300mA, 12W LED driver. The high source impedance is ideal for driving power LEDs because it accommodates variations in LED junction ...
Semiconductor junctions — from the millions of transistors used in ICs to the large-area compound junctions that make high-brightness LEDs possible — can all suffer early failure due to increased heat ...
This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. Many applications for LED illumination require wide dimming ratios, which can be easily done using an adjustable ...
