As the lifetime of LED lighting fixtures is a function of the LED junction temperature, the desire for compact lighting designs further emphasises the importance of thermal management. By Bernd Pflaum, Principal Engineer, Concept and Development, Linear and Switch mode LED Drivers, Infineon Technologies and Hakan Yilmazer, Head of Technical Marketing, Lighting Application, Infineon Technologies.

There are many advantages to using direct current rather than the alternating current used today. For example, when using direct current there are 5-7% less losses in power grids and electric devices.Direct current also makes it possible to more efficiently feed electric energy from regenerative sources into power grids and energy storage and therefore it improves grid stability.
