Meeting Industry Needs for LED Driver Testing

LED LightingLED Lighting has proven to be more efficient and have a longer life than the Incandescent and fluorescent lights. The Led is now available in almost all applications for lighting from Residential, Commercial and Industrial Lighting. Uses include the full range from Mood Lighting, Task Lighting, Security Lighting, Signage, and Computer / TV displays just to name a few.

Because LED’s are a current driven DC device they require a converter so they can be powered from an AC voltage. These Power supplies for LED lighting are most commonly referred to as LED Drivers. LED Drivers have different operating characteristics from the typical AC to DC, and DC to DC Power Supplies used for most electronic equipment. They are often a constant Current output rather than a Constant Voltage Output.
