High Brightness LED evolution

Key Factors for AC/DC LED Drivers

Power Factor
Lighting Power Supplies > 25W must have full PFC. Also <25W PFC needed to solve the problems related to harmonic distortion in multi power systems.
ENERGY STAR Program Requirements for Solid State Lighting Luminaries, Version 1.1: PF > 0.7 and > 0.9 respectively for Residential and Commercial.

Reliability
For high lifetime and MTBF (key advantage of LEDs), it is strongly recommended NOT using electrolytic capacitors, especially input ones (high voltage stress)

Retrofit lamp & bulb replacement

3-20W output power range solutions Space constrains (lamp housing) Compatibility with existing wall dimmers

What is DMX 1/2

DMX = Digital MultipleX
for remote control of advanced lighting system, including motorized lamps to set light intensity, light color, lamp rotation for Wired Communication systems (twisted pairs + RS485 as PHY) in Theatre Stage Lighting, Exhibition Lighting

82

What is DMX 2/2

DMX512 uses asynchronous data transmission up to 250kBd/s (to dimmers, scanner, motorized decoder). Serial transmission and daisy chain configuration up to 512 nodes (so called DMX universe) with max time 22ms (no delay visible) The multiple receivers are connected to the DMX host in a daisy-chain manner and every packet goes through every receiver. Very simple protocol only 8bit data one after another
