The LED driver automatically adjusts the output voltage to keep the output current constant and therefore the light output constant. This works with a single LED or with a chain of string of LEDs ...

LEDs for lighting are found anywhere from DIY IoT modules to commercial lighting applications and the cabins of airplanes. To run properly, these critical lighting devices require a precise balance of ...

Normally, when a project calls for addressable LEDs, we just throw a strip of WS2812s and an Arduino together, cobble together some code from the examples in the FastLED library, and call it a day. We ...

Supplying a constant current to a variable, low-resistance load, such as a thermoelectric cooler, can be a very inefficient endeavor when using the linear approach. Even powering the linear current ...

The LT3954, a DC/DC converter designed to operate as a constant-current source and constant-voltage regulator with an internal 5A switch, is now available from Linear Technology. The LT3954, a DC/DC ...

Controlling LEDs is really quite simple. As you know, they need to be current limited which is as easy as applying Ohm’s law to your given set of values. To make things even more even there’s a slew ...
