It was not long time ago in which was developed a small DC-DC LED driver - Glighter-S, my first switching LED driver. It was the natural consequence of the need for efficiency after the development experiment of the linear LED driver - Glighter. No long time after these experiments, the need for analog control in … Continue reading Glighter-A driver LED – The mixed signal control

Dimming LEDs (part 2/3) – Sneaky non-linear events while using the PWM technique
In the previous article we tried to analyze what is the Contrast Ratio in a LED driver and how the non-idealities are giving a boundary on the minimum allowable PWM period. That was quite worth a full article, but a big part was indeed missing. Here we will go through how the PWM period and … Continue reading Dimming LEDs (part 2/3) – Sneaky non-linear events while using the PWM technique
