Driving a light-emitting diode (LED) or LED array is not without its challenges. The LEDs require a well-designed constant-current source for controlled brightness. More specifically, the output ...

Parallel LED drivers can be used to create the fast, square, high-current waveforms required for automated image processing. And it’s possible to extend such waveforms to higher currents by connecting ...

The circuit below illustrates powering a LED (or two) from the 120 volt AC line using a capacitor to drop the voltage and a small resistor to limit the inrush current. Since the capacitor must pass ...

Most small-size color LCD displays today use white LEDs for backlighting. These systems usually involve handheld devices with an LED drive circuit powered by a battery whose output voltage varies over ...
