LED lighting has been used in medical and hotel which need 24 hours of lighting in place and street lighting for long time lighting areas, other areas because of price, it has not been able to scale into the lights However, today bright two years may be a turning point.
In the autumn of 2012 Hongkong Street Light Fair, director Wang Yongbin on this print analysis, ” LED lighting price grows very fast in 2012, which makes the LED lighting is quickly into the various fields of application. ” ” And, we found a new trend, namely a dimming LED lighting products are very popular amongst Asians like, including developed countries such as Japan and South Korea also favored non-dimming products, which may be associated with the use of habits. Europe and the United States people like dimming lighting. ” The LED industry is a good news, because at present, non-dimming IC price ratio is much cheaper, while IC is the LED lighting in the share of the cost and its the most important part of it. Wang Yongbin said : ” we found another trend , the year after next LED lamps will begin to become the mainstream of demand. ” So, the next two years, NXP LED semiconductor solution provider will focus on non dimming and high power lighting market, because of the huge potential for growth in Asia.
Currently on the market for single stage and two stage LED driving structure of confrontation, Wang Yongbin said, NXP is a single stage architecture defenders. Main reason has the following: one is NXP in a single stage with long time accumulation and advantage; two I, a single level controller can be integrated high voltage MOSFET tube; three ,a single stage and easy to use, easy to design, customers need only two weeks can be successfully; four ,currently the single stage has a cost advantage, double BOM single stage BOM expensive than about 10-15%.
Finally talks about some LED lighting manufacturers to do their own research and development to drive the IC/ components of vertical integration trend, Wang Yongbin think this is just a temporary phenomenon, which will not become mainstream. ” It’s difficult to do lighting company while to do electronic part, the future will be the professional division of labor, the driving part of independence. ” He thought.
