LED Lighting Resources & Tools
External Tools
Infineon LED Driver
Infineon provides a tool that helps designers select a suitable driver. Entering your design requirements such as current or LED configuration takes you directly to product selection. The tool also includes verification of the simulated design and the option of saving or printing out the design.
NXP CFL
This tool from NXP calculates the design parameters for compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) based on user-entered data such as input voltage, required specifications and power consumption.
NXP SSL
This tool from NXP calculates the number of LEDs needed for a particular application and their power consumption, as well as other parameters, from user-entered voltage and current data
OnSemiconductor - GreenPoint® Simulation Tool:
High Brightness LEDs (HB-LED) and High Power White LEDs are poised to enable a market transition to energy efficient Solid State Lighting (SSL). ON Semiconductor provides ac-dc controllers and regulators; dc-dc controllers, converters, & regulators; drivers; diodes & rectifiers; and MOSFETs that enable customers to design highly efficient LED lighting solutions - whether powered by the ac main or a low voltage dc power source.
Semtech CSIM
This is an interactive tool for selecting and verifying drivers from the Semtech product line. The online design centre determines the parameters of DC/DC converters or LED drivers from user-entered current and voltage data as well as other specifications. The tool includes a remote simulation function for verifying the results.
