Diodes Incorporated announced the release of AP1695 LED lamp driver that optimized the design of sub-12W triac dimmer-compatible LED lamps with a dimming range of 1 to 100% and up to 30% reduction in ...

Solid state lighting applications are expanding as higher performance LEDs are now available. One application getting considerable attention is the retrofit of existing triac-based dimmers by ...

The LM3445 from National Semiconductor enables a full 100:1 range of offline, uniform, flicker-free dimming for high-brightness LEDs with a conventional TRIAC forward or reverse phase-control wall ...

Triacs are at the heart of dimming controls for LED lighting. Triacs used in dimmers have normally been characterised and specified for incandescent lamp loads, which have high current ratings for ...

Designed for compact LED replacement lamps, LinkSwitch-PL enables very small and low cost TRIAC dimmable, single-stage, power factor corrected, constant current drivers for solid state lighting.
