ON Semiconductor, will introduce its newest LED lighting solutions with four products and GreenPoint(R) Interactive Online Design Simulation Tool  at the Strategies in Light Europe conference Sept. 27-29 in Frankfurt, Germany.

Firstly, ON Semiconductor will showcase a new step-down (buck) LED driver controller NCL30100that provides an ideal solution for high-brightness LED driver applications where space is limited and high efficiency is important, such as low voltage MR-16 LED bulbs.
 
The NCL30100's ability to operate at high switching frequency and the flexibility it gives to select the most appropriate power MOSFETs, combine to support the customer in achieving an optimal solution for their design.
 
Secondly, its new CM1771 is a 100 V back-to-back electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device that prolongs operation of HBLED lamp modules. It is the industry's first ESD protection solution for HBLED applications to feature a 100 V breakdown voltage. The CM1771 is offered as a 440 um x 440 um die. Pricing for these devices is $0.02 per unit in 100,000 unit quantities.
 
Thirdly, ON Semiconductor also expanded its portfolio of adjustable Constant Current Regulators (CCRs). The new CCRs, which provide voltage surge suppression to protect general lighting and automotive LEDs, are simple and highly robust devices designed to provide cost-effective current regulation to LEDs. They are based on the company's proprietary, patent-pending Self-Biased Transistor (SBT) technology and regulate current over a wide voltage range.
 
Fourthly, it also developed low power LED driver optimized for coin cell powered backlighting applications .The CAT3661 is a new one-channel Quad-Mode(TM) LED Driver providing up to 92 percent efficiency for extended battery life in a wide range of portable applications including handheld medical equipment. The CAT3661 can drive a single LED backlight with a current of up to 5 mA.
 
In addition, ON Semiconductor also has developed an innovative GreenPoint(R) tool environment that provides an interactive online design and verification experience accelerating the design of solid state lighting solutions. Based on a user's design requirements -- such as LED configuration, voltage, current or switching frequency -- the GreenPoint Tool automatically calculates optimum circuit configuration and selects appropriate values for inductors and capacitors. The resulting design is displayed as an interactive online schematic. The GreenPoint Design Tool essentially represents a virtual test bed, providing a variety of analyses, which allows engineers to test the performance of the solution.
