The basic schematic of an electronic transformer (ET) includes a traditional full-bridge rectifier, a self-oscillating chopping circuit, and an output-power transformer. The self-oscillating circuit ...

Designers of early indoor LED light bulbs faced numerous technical hurdles, including AC-to-DC conversion, thermal heat-sinking, constraints imposed by current bulb sizes, electrical transients, and ...

LED lightbulbs are more energy-efficient than standard bulbs, but that doesn't mean they work perfectly all of the time. Here ...

While there are still many challenges facing the LED before it becomes the primary light source, there is no question that LEDs will continue to be used in ever more lighting applications. Two ...
