Solid-state lighting (SSL) differs from conventional lighting in that it uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs) instead of filaments, plasma, or gases. Although still relatively early in its development, ...

To understand the technology associated with practical LED dimming we first have to look at the technology associated with triac-based incandescent lamp dimmers. The typical triac lamp dimmer circuit ...

The quest for energy efficiency has led manufacturers to investigate ways of dimming all kinds of lighting technologies, including those that usually can’t be dimmed. Consider, for example, ...

Easy to Use: Led strip light dimmer use knob control, LED will be adjusted to the appropriate light intensity through this dimmer. Stepless Dimming: Save some cash on energy by reducing the light ...

This is yet another project born of necessity. It’s a simple circuit, but does exactly what it’s designed to do – dim LED lights or control the speed of 12V DC motors. The circuit uses PWM to regulate ...

If you're shopping for LEDs, there are many options to choose from-- and dimmer compatibility only complicates matters. Even if you pick the proper color temperature, lumens rating and a desired beam ...

Frank Hertel’s project: three individually dimmable LED lights. (Frank is the master of recycling; the wooden mounting pedestals are the panels from a decommissioned ATI console!) Thanks for your ...
