Running LEDs from an AC supply
WEBMay 2, 2006 · To run an LED-based fixture from a mains supply (e.g. 120 V AC) requires electronics between the supply and the devices themselves to provide a DC voltage (e.g. 12 V DC) capable of driving several LEDs. A new approach is to develop AC-LEDs, which can operate directly from an AC power supply. This provides several advantages, as …
What is an LED? - LEDs Magazine
WEBSep 1, 2004 · In the simplest terms, a light-emitting diode (LED) is a semiconductor device that emits light when an electric current is passed through it. Light is produced when the particles that carry the current (known as electrons and holes) combine together within the semiconductor material. Since light is generated within the solid semiconductor ...
IES publishes lighting specification for sports fields and venues
WEBSep 15, 2015 · The RP-6-15 document is for sale in the IES online store for $75 or for $52.50 to IES members. Another IES document that just recently became available at the store is the LM-80-15 specification for characterizing LEDs. And we recently held a webcast on the new LM-80 standard, which can still be accessed on demand.
Fact or Fiction – LEDs don’t produce heat | LEDs Magazine
WEBMay 10, 2005 · In one sense this is true: LEDs are cool to the touch because they generally don't produce heat in the form of infrared (IR) radiation (unless of course they are IR LEDs). IR radiation heats the enclosures and surroundings of incandescent bulbs and other sources, making them hot to the touch. The absence of IR radiation allows LED fixtures to ...

WEBMay 11, 2010 · The ECOSMART LED bulb’s retail price is $19.97, compared to over $50 for other LED bulbs, uses approximately 80% less energy than a 40 watt incandescent light bulb and is expected to last more than 22 years.*. Built in the USA, the ECOSMART A19 LED bulb is the first in a full line of ECOSMART LED products made by …
AI meets LEDs for innovations in lighting control (MAGAZINE)
WEBJul 21, 2021 · FIG. 2. AI-enhanced smart LED lighting and controls can handle functions from executing color-changing lighting schemes to more sophisticated building management operations that integrate safety and security measures, networked sensors, HVAC, and scheduled lighting to supplement natural daylight — all by using machine learning to automate programming, reduce human intervention where needed ...
Technology roadmap shows UV-C LEDs are on the rise - LEDs …
WEBJul 24, 2020 · Market analysts, even prior to COVID-19, predicted a UV LED market exceeding $1 billion in a few years, to be compared with the lighting LED market, which was $5.8 billion in 2019, after growing for many years now. In addition, large LED players, including Nichia and San’an, are notably investing in the UV-C LED market, no doubt in ...
The elusive “life” of LEDs: How TM-21 contributes to the solution ...
WEBNov 29, 2011 · FIG. 1. The useful life of standard lighting technologies is defined as the time to filament or cathode failure. For most of these lamps, the time period prior to failure exhibits acceptable levels of light output, as shown with the solid lines in Fig. 1. This makes it easy to determine when to replace the lamp.
