OSRAM Opto Semiconductors Receives PACE Award for Automotive Innovation
OSRAM Opto Semiconductors was an award winner at the 17th Annual Automotive News PACE Awards for innovation held at a black tie ceremony last night at the Max M. Fisher Music Center in Detroit, Mich. The award was accepted by Peter Knittl, LED automotive director at OSRAM Opto Semiconductors.
The Revolution in Warehouse Lighting: LEDs and Intelligent Lighting Systems
Lighting is one of the top users of electricity in a standard warehouse, representing 38% of total energy costs in a dry facility or 15% in a refrigerated one. This paper provides an overview of high-intensity LEDs for highbay applications, and compares the pros and cons of different lighting solutions — HID, HIF, simple LEDs, and LED-based Intelligent Lighting Systems.
Switch LightingTM Introduces brightest LED Replacement Bulb
Switch Lighting, announces a brand new technology that produces the brightest warm light LED replacement bulb available. Using their City of LightTM technology, the bulb creates a self-cooling environment inside, allowing maximum brightness with fewer LEDs. With this technology, Switch Lighting is bringing to market the first true 75 watt equivalent warm white LED replacement bulb at an affordable price.

ROHM Semiconductor Announced High Reliability High Brightness LEDs Optimized for Automotive Exterior Lighting
ROHM Semiconductor has recently announced its new ultra-high-bright PLCC4 LED SML-Y1 Series for optimum light emission, reliability and power efficiency. Featuring 4 pins, the series is the latest addition to the PLCC line-up. While providing the same guaranteed oper¬ating temperature range (-40°C to 100°C), its derating characteristics have been significantly enhanced compared to PLCC 2 packages. A gold-plated frame is utilized for superior s...
Methods of controlling multiple LED strings with C2000™ microcontrollers (MCUs)
As more applications continue to integrate LED technology, developers find themselves facing the challenge of driving greater numbers of LEDs while lowering system cost and increasing power efficiency. For systems requiring multiple strings of LEDs, TI provides two example solutions illustrating differing power stage topology designs and digital control methods. This whitepaper explores the different LED driver topologies and digital control m...
