LED lights with its unparalleled energy-saving, environmental protection, long life, high controllability technology advantages, in recent years become the world’s most promising high-tech one, officially opened the prelude to a comprehensive alternative to traditional lighting, semiconductor lighting technology innovation is changing centuries the history of traditional lighting. With the application of LED technology in the lighting field, LED lighting products in the world set off a storm of green energy saving, green lighting products industry as. Increasing energy consumption, and some even predicted: “in the next 10 years, LED lighting products will be the only product to replace the traditional high-pressure sodium lamps, incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps led design, table lamps lighting LED lamps to be universal, not only need to substantially reduce costs, but also need to address the problem of energy efficiency and reliability, and how to solve these problems, share the design of high efficiency and high reliable LED lamps.
Do not use the bipolar power led design devices
Experts pointed out that the bipolar power devices are cheaper than the MOSFET, generally about 2 cents, so some designers use bipolar power devices in order to reduce the cost of LED driver, this will seriously affect the reliability of the circuit, because with LED drive circuit board temperature enhance effective working range of the bipolar device is rapidly shrinking, this will lead to device failure in the temperature rise which affects the reliability of the LED lamps, the correct approach is to choose MOSFET devices, the service life of the MOSFET devices much longer than bipolar devices.
Try not to use electrolytic capacitors
LED driver circuit Do not use electrolytic capacitors in the end? Supporters and opponents, supporters believe that the board temperature control, turn to reach the purpose to extend the life of electrolytic capacitors led design, for example, choose a life span of 105 degrees for a high temperature of 8000 hours electrolytic capacitor, electrolytic capacitor life estimation formula based on prevailing “temperature 10 degrees lower doubling of life expectancy, it is to work in an environment of 95 degrees life of 16,000 hours, 32,000 hours working life in an environment of 85 degrees in 75 Degree of working life of 64,000 hours, if the actual operating temperature is lower, then life will be longer! Seen in this light, as long as the selection of high-quality electrolytic capacitor drive power of life is not any impact.
