This application note provides a practical guideline of TRIAC dimmable LED bulb board design. Passive and active bleeder design guides detail how to maintain latching and holding current without ...

Fig 1. This efficient pre-regulator for a dc power supply uses an optical feedback loop to minimize dissipation rather than the traditional optically isolated TRIAC drivers. Fig 2. The PSpice ...

To understand the technology associated with practical LED dimming we first have to look at the technology associated with triac-based incandescent lamp dimmers. The typical triac lamp dimmer circuit ...

Several different technologies and designs are available among solid-state switches today. The major families are the standard Triacs (triode for alternating current), the snubberless Triacs, and the ...
