Employ SSL2101, SSL2102 dimmable mains LED driver
Keywords:Light Emitting Diodes? electronic systems? lighting applications?
Key enablers driving the expansion of LED lighting are the availability of high brightness LEDs and intelligent LED controllers. Product designers incorporating high brightness LEDs face many challenges. Among them are thermal management, driver scheme/topology and existing infrastructure.
To replace an existing dimmable incandescent or halogen light source, an electronic lamp driver system must be implemented that is compatible with the existing dimmer switch while replicating the dimming behaviour of the existing light source. The SSL2101/2102 IC provide this functionality and, in addition, provides an efficient power converter. These are the first ICs to combine these capabilities, enabling the lamp/module designer to integrate electronics in a cost and size effective way, whilst benefiting from optimal thermal trade-off.
