Information on practical DC Drive Circuitry for LEDs

All LEDs are  driven electrically before they can emit quality light.  This is one of their basic characteristics which differentiate them from other kinds of light sources.  In this write-up, we’re going to be focusing on the DC drive circuitry for LEDs. In the first place, the battery is a typical DC source. It’s usually used for flashlights. It can as well serve as the output of a converter.  Actually, DC is quite different from AC.  The difference is that DC has much lower voltage than AC.  Hence, the regulations gov...

Information on Practical AC Drive Circuitry for LEDs

By Scott Watson Apart from using the DC drive circuitry in some conditions, LEDs also make use of the AC Drive Circuitry.  DC circuitry is powered by batteries while the AC is powered by the electrical current.  In this write-up, we’re going to be discussing some details concerning the practical aspects of AC drive circuitry meant for LEDs. Actually, when your LED light is run off the electrical grid, the AC drive circuitry is simply used.  The power conversion of the AC power is known to be very complex than the DC version.  ...
