Light emitting diodes (LEDs) deliver emitted light in response to current being made to flow through them, but then you already knew that, right?? If we define that the light output of an LED is ...

With new LED lights, one of the most difficult, demanding, and costly sections of a design is thermal management. Without sufficient thermal management, the results can be catastrophic, ranging from ...

Usually, an MCU is considered a digital device. By default, its output voltage level can be either high or low and nothing in between. With the requirement to create an LED brightness control, the ...

Most engineers are quite familiar with typical low-power-indicator LEDs, whether they be surface-mount or the classical through-hole packages. All that's needed to use them is a voltage source and a ...

An LED lighting driver chip with in-built 0-10V dimming designed by iWatt does not require a microprocessor to control the dimming function. “We believe this is the first product from anyone with ...

High power LED lighting is harder than it looks. Power, dimming, control, and communication collide in one design.

Originally hailing from Troy, Ohio, Ry Crist is a writer, a text-based adventure connoisseur, a lover of terrible movies and an enthusiastic yet mediocre cook. A CNET editor from 2013 to 2024, Ry's ...

The lighting industry is undergoing an incredibly fast rate for technological development and is continuing to develop rapidly. Consumers are at an inflection point because of the innovations in the ...

TCL is refining Mini LED with Super Quantum Dots instead of jumping to Micro RGB. The result is similar picture quality at ...

This module introduces Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) techniques for Python on the Raspberry Pi. Subsequently, by using PWM we can modify the brightness of an LED without having to change a resistor.
