LED Lighting Introduction

Small LEDs developed in 1960s for indication High Brightness / High Power LEDs now available Lumens per Watt better than Incandescent / Halogen lamps Lumens per Watt equal or better than Fluorescent or HID
lamps

HB/HP LEDs being adopted in general illumination Typical applications; bulb replacements, light fixtures, Street lamps LEDs have longer operating life, typically 50000 hours LEDs offer better reliability / durability LEDs are easier to control and dim LEDs offer reduced Lumen depreciation (less light output reduction over time) LEDs are normally DC driven LEDs are driven by constant current

High Power LED Applications

LED Street Light Typically 120W per cobra head Example opposite uses 4 x 30W LED panels One LED driver per cobra head Typically 1.4A output Single or multi channel output Optimize for efficiency (series LED connection) or redundancy (4 channel output) High Lumen output / directed light Controllable light output (PWM or linear dimming) Galvanically isolated low voltage outputs (safety) Open and short circuit protected Wide input voltage range 90 to 305VAC High power factor and low THD

Power Factor Control is Power Quality

Power Factor
Relationship between voltage and current waveforms Measure of power quality that affects transmission network efficiency

PFC regulations apply to:

China : China Compulsory Certificate (CCC) Europe : IEC 1000-3-2 Japan : JIC C 61000-3-2 For products >75W (>26W for lighting applications)
