A large percentage of LED drivers offered by many vendors use PWM (pulse-width modulation) intensity control to adjust LED brightness for a wide range of applications. In the PWM drivers, the ...

Consumer-based LED applications have really taken off. You now find them in home lighting, airplane cabin lights, automobile lights, MP3 players, and elsewhere. In the past, most LED drivers were ...

Recent breakthroughs in LED technology have enabled LEDs with a broad spectrum of light output to be produced and not just the traditional red and green derivatives. Hence the sheer numbers of LEDs ...

This application note shows how to make use of the Maxim MAX6958/9 IC’s for driving LED’s and controlling their intensity. The LED’s can be made to blink or light up brighter than other LED’s. To view ...

The Convention on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) governs the intensity of navigation lights, requiring a minimum intensity in candelas according to a ...
