Driver module for high brightness LEDs
Code Mercenaries launches a new product line for LED lighting applications. This is a new strategic branch of operations for Code Mercenaries. In the last few years LEDs have become a viable alternative for general lighting applications. Compared to traditional light sources LEDs offer a much longer life cycle and in most cases a significantly better energy efficiency. But the technical hurdles in designing LED based luminaires are higher than wi...
LED driver family from Diodes Inc cuts component overhead
Diodes has introduced a family of LED driver ICs capable of significantly reducing the number and size of external components required by drive circuits. The AP880X step-down dc-dc converters need the support of just four components and by operating at switching frequencies up to 600kHz, enable the use of smaller and lower cost inductors and capacitors.
