Hybrid Switching/Linear Method Yields LED-Current Controller with Wide Dimming Ratio (.PDF Download)

Aug. 9, 2016

Many applications for LED illumination require wide dimming ratios, which can be easily done using an adjustable current source. The current source can be adjusted over a large LED current range using several different techniques. The primary problem with this technique is that the power dissipation can be quite high...
