GlacialLight Launches the All-New LED Vega Series
GlacialLight, a sub-division of the experienced technology manufacturer GlacialTech Inc., is excited to release an all-new, environmentally-friendly product – the LED Vega Series, a direct replacement for halogen AR111 lamps. With GlacialLight's specially-designed LED driver on board, the brand-new GL-AR111 LED Vega Series is compatible with all electronic transformers and can be placed in any halogen AR111 lamp socket immediately.
Linear LED Driver From Supertex Provides Simple, High Voltage Driving Solution
Supertex, Inc today introduced CL220, a high voltage, temperature-compensated, constant current, LED driver integrated circuit (IC). It is designed to drive a string of LEDs with a constant current of 20mA, and multiple ICs can be used in parallel to provide higher output currents in increments of 20mA. It can be used in a variety of solid-state lighting applications such as automotive, industrial indicators and accent lighting.
New LED prototypes add dynamism to LED lighting for headlights
OSRAM Opto Semiconductors showcased two new LED prototypes for headlights in the shape of the OSLON Black Flat and the OSRAM OSTAR Headlamp Pro. Both combine new chip and package technologies and are equipped with a ceramic converter. Their strengths include high light output even at high currents, a uniform light pattern, thermal stability and a particularly good contrast ratio
