DC/DC LED driver provides up to 40W output
Diodes Incorporated has introduced the AL8860 hysteresis mode DC/DC step-down converter, which is designed for driving single or multiple series‑connected LEDs efficiently from a voltage source higher than the LED voltage. With its integrated MOSFET, this product provides a low BOM cost solution for low-voltage industrial and automotive LED lighting applications, including illuminated signs and backlighting, as well as an LED retrofit for repla...
Single chip LEDs improve thermal performance and reduce cost
Manufacturer of lighting and sensing products and components, Plessey, has announced the launch of its 7070 high power LED range, part number PLW7070GA.They take full advantage of Plessey’s GaN on silicon MaGIC technology and provide a high power LED component on an industry standard package footprint, complementing Plessey’s existing family of i2LED high power products.
Redefining automotive lighting with digital LED
At the electronica exhibition, Inova Semiconductors has unveiled a new digital LED concept for automotive applications with the first LED product to be available from Dominant Opto Technologies in Q1 2017.
Libra Industries offers services for the LED lighting industry
Libra Industries announced plans to exhibit at the LED Assembly, Reliability & Testing (A.R.T.) Symposium, scheduled to take place November 29-December 1, 2016 at the Crown Plaza Midtown in Atlanta, GA.From its four state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities in Northeast Ohio and now Texas, Libra Industries serves a diverse base of industries such as medical, military/aerospace, industrial and LED lighting.
Glowing crystals can cleanse contaminated drinking water
Glowing crystals designed to detect and capture heavy-metal toxins such as lead and mercury could prove to be a powerful tool in locating and cleaning up contaminated water sources.Motivated by publicised cases in which high levels of heavy metals were found in drinking water in Flint, Mich., and Newark, N.J., a science team led by researchers at Rutgers University used intense X-rays at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory to probe the structur...
Lab creates open-source optogenetics hardware
Gerhardt and Rice colleagues have created the first low-cost, easy-to-use optogenetics hardware platform that biologists who have little or no training in engineering or software design can use to incorporate optogenetics testing in their labs.Rice's Light Plate Apparatus (LPA) is described in a paper available for free online this week in the open-access journal Scientific Reports. The LPA, which was created in the lab of Jeffrey Tabor, assistan...
LEDS target indoor horticulture
The LUXEON SunPLus Series LEDs from Lumileds is now in stock at Mouser Electronics. These new LEDs, designed specifically for horticulture, are binned and tested based on photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) to ensure ease of system design for grow lights. The LEDs enable specific wavelength tuning for greenhouses, vertical farms, and other horticulture applications.
Microsite designed as invaluable resource for design engineers
Designed by Engineers for Engineers - Multitron’s new MENTOR Keypad Components Microsite provides logical, easy-to-follow routes to help develop the keypad design solution, accompanied by a host of explanatory and technical data.The Microsite explains how MENTOR’s light guide competency delivers a homogenously-lit switch-facefrom just two customer-supplied SMD LEDs.
Switching on to the ‘Smart Factory’
The recent UK launch of HARTING’s Han-Modular Switch US4 connector has been reaffirmed as a strategic part of its Industry 4.0 portfolio. This connector is designed to save control cabinet space, reduce wiring and improve distributed networking, specifically in support of Industry 4.0 modernisation programmes.
Combining LED lighting and audio with TIDA-03026
This video demonstrates how you can use TIDA-03026 to drive multiple status indication LEDs by implementing LED drivers in parallel with a load switch, which reduces standby current while integrating audio feedback.
