This is a very simple LED dimmer circuit which has 2 transistors, 1 resistor and 2 potentiometers. Typical segment displays LEDs consume around 25 mA for each segment and should be limited to this ...

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 ...

The occasion for this project was retrofitting an illuminated wall picture with LED backlighting. As soon as I applied LED power, the brightness blinded me — much brighter than the original T20 ...

1. A Cree XM-L RGBW high-power LED can be driven by two LT3964 LED drivers for accurate 1:8192 per channel dimming. 2. Typical driver architectures offer 8-bit color resolution. Implementing a driver ...

LED driver designs can deliver flicker-free and fast startup dimming performance while still providing high power factor and efficiency, writes Rich Miron Dimming performance of LED lamps in legacy ...

Leviton's excellent 2nd-gen motion-sensing Wi-Fi smart dimmer (model D2MSD) can be combined with a wireless, battery-powered ...

I wanted to know why my LED lights weren't lasting as long as they were supposed to. The answer wasn't what I expected.

Fig. 1: The dimmer circuit schematic showing the filtering capacitors. Rob Atkinson, K5UJ, is an engineer out of Saint Charles, Ill., and one of the many readers who enjoy the DIY projects we feature ...
