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 ...

I made this dimmer circuit because I have a cheap chinese LED lamp that doesn’t have the option to dim its light. It is a simple PWM dimmer built with the well-knows 555 integrated circuit and a power ...

The quest for energy efficiency has led manufacturers to investigate ways of dimming all kinds of lighting technologies, including those that usually can’t be dimmed. Consider, for example, ...

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 ...

The LM3445 from National Semiconductor enables a full 100:1 range of offline, uniform, flicker-free dimming for high-brightness LEDs with a conventional TRIAC forward or reverse phase-control wall ...

When it comes to LED LCDs, as in every TV that's not OLED, the key to the best picture quality is a technology called "local dimming." This gives the TV greater control over what parts of the screen ...

Trailing-edge dimmer rated for LEDs (typical LED range 5–120 W, check the packaging). 2-gang version if you need to control two circuits independently. Screwdrivers (flat and cross-head), insulated ...
