Rohm has introduced a linear LED driver for automotive use, following close on the heels of its LED driver for motorcycles. BD18336NUF-M is a 3 x 3 x 1mm constant current driver IC that can deliver ...

The rear light is of utmost importance for road safety. However, since the space required on the electrical module is limited, several functions must be implemented using just one circuit, for example ...

Linear Technology has unveiled a new pulse width modulation (pwm) generator with 48 independent channels. According to the IC specialist, each channel has an individually adjustable 12bit (4,096 steps ...

The PCA9685 is an I²C-bus controlled 16-channel LED controller optimized for LCD Red/Green/Blue/Amber (RGBA) color backlighting applications. Each LED output has its own 12-bit resolution (4096 steps) ...

Osram has teamed up with Infineon to add NFC set-up to led lighting to a non-dimmable Osram led driver family. “NFC programming is designed to replace resistor-setting techniques via a contactless NFC ...

Power LEDs are becoming more and more commonplace as bedroom light sources for a number of reasons. The greatest advantage of LED light sources, in my opinion, is that they last for a very long time.

Dimming LEDs is an important feature in many of today’s solid state lighting applications. While many implementations for dimming LEDs in the market today rely on PWM modulation of the LED driving ...

Infineon Technologies AG has introduced the new LED driver IC ILD8150/E. It features an innovative hybrid dimming mode technology for achieving 0.5% of the target current. With a supply voltage range ...
