Marvell Announced the Industry’s First Dual-string LED Lighting Controller Family 88EM8801

Marvell announced the industry’s first dual-string LED lighting controller family. With the 88EM8801, Marvell has packed all the functionality onto a single 4X4 millimeter chip that previously would have required multiple driver chips, a micro-controller and various discrete components.

The capabilities of this new chip enables LED lightening OEMs to bring high-end architectural lighting capabilities – including improved CRI, more precise dimming and integrated networking capability  – into consumer and professional settings at the same price as existing LED bulbs. Previously, these high-end features were too expensive (and large) for the general consumer market.

Marvell also announced three new LED reference designs with lighting leaders Cree and Lumileds - http://www.marvell.com/company/news/press_detail.html?releaseID=1484 and http://www.marvell.com/company/news/press_detail.html?releaseID=1483.
