The National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence will host a webinar on Tuesday, March 3, spotlighting voltage drop ...
Editors’ Note: This segment is adapted from Chapter 3 of Power Supplies for LED Driving by Steve Winder. We have seen in Chapter 2 that an LED behaves like a constant voltage load with low equivalent ...
Solid state lighting solutions are increasing in popularity across a broad variety of illumination, indication, signage and backlighting applications, replacing traditional incandescent and ...
Semiconductor junctions — from the millions of transistors used in ICs to the large-area compound junctions that make high-brightness LEDs possible — can all suffer early failure due to increased heat ...
Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are often used with a voltage source from a power-supply output voltage. The output voltage increases until the current through the LEDs reaches the value of the ...
Series voltage drop is the progressive loss of voltage that occurs when feeding a string of parallel-connected loads. It's of particular concern when feeding a string of roadway, walkway, or parking ...
