LED stands for light emitting diode. It's a semiconductor device, whichÊemits lights of different colors when electricity flows through it.ÊToday, high power LEDs are trending. They are used in many applications. This includesÊautomobile lights, signage, lighting fixtures, and flashlights. ...Read More
LED Lighting: Reducing Costs and Helping to Protect the Natural World
Increased demand usually translates to higher prices for consumers. As the need for electricity grows, the focus on conservation also continues toÊincrease. Many companies that manufacture electrical products are working hard to develop items whichÊuse less energy, reduce costs, and have a softer footprint on the environment. LED lighting is a perfect example of this innovative approach to the efficient use of electrical power. ...Read More
Understanding LED Drivers and Controllers
If youÕve worked in the lighting industry in an engineering capacity before, then you understandÊhow costly it can be to erect architectural lighting equipmentÊthroughout the structure of a theme park, concert stage or onÊthe night-time deck of a cruise ship. The rgb LED controller is the savior.ÊIt allows millions of bits (potentially) via randomizer to quickly produce the many colors needed for the event in question. ÊBecause it does this intelligently, the hardest part is simply finding out certain parameters and entering these values on the ERP Power website to obtain the specific parts. ...Read More
LEDs: An Ubiquitous Technology for Many Industries
The explosive growth of LED technology is one of those things whichÊhave had multi-industry benefits Ð particularly with the invention of the high-output diode. When compared to incandescent, halogens, and mercury-bulbs, the LED is simply the most efficientlyÊknown way to convert an electric current into visible light. InÊother alternatives, a sizable amount of energy is lost as unused waste heat. ...Read More
Understanding Power Conversion in Light Emitting Diodes
If thereÕs a single advantage that LEDs have over formerly traditional methods of providing illumination, itÕs the significantly increased ROI in terms of power conversion. ÊLEDs are much less costly to power and return much more actual light Ð instead of merely wastingÊheat Ð per wattage invested. ...Read More
Forward vs. Reverse Phase Dimming
Forward phase dimming is the most common dimming method used in the U.S., with over 150 million controllers in current operation. While it is surpassed by reverse phase dimming in some ways, it still has many important benefits, which include. ...Read More
Why It’s Essential to Consider LED Driver Dimming Performance
Because LED light output is proportional to the current, it's possible to dim LED lights,Êprovided that the dimming system used is compatible with the LED driver, excellent LED dimming performance is achievable. ...Read More
Choose the Right High-power LED Circuits
Managing the flow of power and keeping it constant is critical, which is why most LED arrays use LED controllers or drivers. The question is:Êhow do you determine the best choice for your application? ...Read More
Control Your Light Levels With a LED Dimming Driver
LED lights offer many benefits. They are economical, efficient, don't flicker, and there's no delay when switching on. Light output is easily varied using a LED dimming driver. While notÊinitially the cheapest option, the long-life expectancy and low energy consumption means LED lights are more economicalÊin the long run. ...Read More
