High Brightness LED evolution
Key Factors for AC/DC LED Drivers
Power Factor
Lighting Power Supplies > 25W must have full
PFC.
Also <25W PFC needed to solve the problems
related to harmonic distortion in multi power
systems.
ENERGY STAR Program Requirements for Solid State
Lighting Luminaries, Version 1.1: PF > 0.7 and > 0.9
respectively for Residential and Commercial.

Reliability
For high lifetime and MTBF (key advantage of
LEDs), it is strongly recommended NOT using
electrolytic capacitors, especially input ones (high
voltage stress)

Retrofit lamp & bulb replacement

3-20W output power range solutions
Space constrains (lamp housing)
Compatibility with existing wall dimmers

DMX = Digital MultipleX
for remote control of advanced lighting system, including motorized lamps to set light intensity,
light color, lamp rotation
for Wired Communication systems (twisted pairs + RS485 as PHY) in Theatre Stage Lighting,
Exhibition Lighting

82
What is DMX 2/2
DMX512 uses asynchronous data transmission up to 250kBd/s (to dimmers, scanner,
motorized decoder).
Serial transmission and daisy chain configuration up to 512 nodes (so called DMX
universe) with max time 22ms (no delay visible)
The multiple receivers are connected to the DMX host in a daisy-chain manner and
every packet goes through every receiver.
Very simple protocol only 8bit data one after another

What is DALI ?
DALI = Digital Addressable Lighting Interface for remote control of lighting
devices (dimming, automatic on/off switching)

DALI advantages:
simple wiring: use standards electrical installation cables (no special
communication cables), no special wiring topology
simple installation: cable polarity independency, light source addressing
digital host control use low cost microcontrollers on light source side (minimize
light source price)
