Texas Instruments Incorporated introduced a new off-line primary side sensing controller to its portfolio of non-dimming LED drivers. The new TPS92310 AC/DC constant current driver with power factor ...

Solid-state lighting (SSL) differs from conventional lighting in that it uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) instead of filaments, plasma, or gases. Although still relatively early in its development, ...

LED driver designs can deliver flicker-free and fast startup dimming performance while still providing high power factor and efficiency, writes Rich Miron Dimming performance of LED lamps in legacy ...

The Illuminating Engineering Society defines dimming as “the ability to change the luminous flux of one or more lamps or luminaires.” In layman’s terms, the ability to dim lighting is central to ...

At the Strategies in Light Europe conference, Texas Instruments Inc. (TI) introduced two highly integrated, phase-dimmable ac-dc LED lighting drivers, LM3448 and TPS92070, for use in solid state ...

It makes no sense to put super-efficient LEDs on ordinary dimmers. The dimmer would consume more energy than the LEDs being dimmed. That's why NXP Semiconductors, It makes no sense to put ...

We've all heard the jokes about how many so-and-so's it may or may not take to change a lightbulb. Jokes aside, replacing a burned-out bulb ranks high on any list encompassing the most common projects ...

There's a lot to like about this low-cost LED light bulb -- but how good is it on dimmer switches? Ry Crist Former Senior Editor / Reviews - Labs Originally hailing from Troy, Ohio, Ry Crist is a ...

Today, advanced electronics technology gives us both high-quality light-dimming solutions and additional opportunities to save valuable energy. Notably analog dimming is one of the most popular ...

If you agree with our assertion that smart light switches are a better solution than smart light bulbs, you should give Cree’s new A19 soft-white dimmable LED a long look. Far too many LED bulbs choke ...
