Fairchild Semiconductor’s LED Driver Compatible with Traditional TRIAC Dimming, Analog Dimming and Non-Dimming Lamp Designs

LED lighting has evolved into a promising solution for replacing conventional lighting sources, such as fluorescent and incandescent lights. However, designers face several obstacles in residential and commercial LED lighting applications up to 20W including bulb, down lighting (GU10/E17, E26/27, PAR30/38) and Tube/Bar. Implementing dimming capabilities in a conventional TRIAC dimmer infrastructure is challenging because of dimmer compatibility. Additionally, small space requirements remain a consideration.   To help designers address these challenges, Fair...
