Entertainment applications will adopt the new LEDs

The number and breadth of applications that require amber LEDs is tremendous,” said Frank Harder, VP of Product Marketing at Philips Lumileds. “Markets including automotive, entertainment, roadway, signaling, and many others use amber LEDs. With better efficiency and more light output, LUXEON Rebel PC amber makes it that much easier to reduce energy consumption with an environmentally friendly product.lamps to LEDs because they didn’t produce enough light and couldn’t operate effectively at higher temperatures. With the advances provided by LUXEON Rebel PC Amber, yellow traffic signals will be converted, warning lights and beacons on vehicles and obstructions will switch and entertainment applications will adopt the new LEDs.

numbers of amber LEDs. With LUXEON Rebel PC Amber, manufacturers will be able to use fewer LEDs and lower other component costs because of the improved light output and particularly the stable color over temperature, something that has been problematic for many auto manufacturers. Philips Lumileds expects full automotive qualification later this year.Lumileds is the world's leading provider of power LEDs for illumination solutions. The company's leading light output, efficacy and thermal management are direct results of the ongoing commitment to advancing solid-state lighting technology and enabling lighting solutions that are more environmentally friendly, help reduce CO2 emissions and reduce the need for power plant expansion. Philips Lumileds' LUXEON LEDs are enabling new solutions for shop lighting, outdoor lighting, office and school lighting, and home lighting.

The HV9985 contains three peak current mode controllers that provide feedback to the IC and ensure higher efficiency and higher accuracy. Gate drivers within the chip are optimized for driving logic level FETs at 0.25A sourcing or 0.5A sinking. Each output current can be individually dimmed via linear or PWM dimming methods.The HV9985's closed loop system dynamically adjusts its output voltage for excellent line and load regulation of the LED current," states Ahmed Masood, Vice President of Marketing for Supertex. "Integrating three channels in a single package ensures better current matching between strings as well as reducing the total component count of the system.

Only imaginations brought the ceremony

In 1923, families gathered around the radio to listen as President Calvin Coolidge lit the first National Christmas Tree. Only imaginations brought the ceremony, and the tree located in what is now President’s led linear high bay light , to life. Eighty-nine years later, families are still gathering to witness the lighting of the National Christmas Tree, but 21st century technology is giving them a front-row seat. At 4:30 p.m. ET on Dec. 1, GE Lighting, in conjunction with the National Park Foundation, an official charitable partner of America’s national parks and the National Park Service, invites families to gather around the laptop to watch as the National Christmas Tree come to life. GE Lighting has been designing the National Christmas Tree, and contributing its lighting and decorations for 49 years.  The design process usually begins only a few months after the previous year’s lighting on the National Christmas Tree is shut off, often starting in March or earlier. Thoug...

The specialty crop industry plays an enormously important part in American agriculture

The USDA Specialty Crops Research Initiative Award will include $2.44 million from the USDA and an equal amount of in-kind contributions of equipment and services from industry partners. The project is titled "Developing LED Linear high bay light Technology and Practices for Sustainable Specialty-Crop Production." Merrigan pointed out that” The specialty crop industry plays an enormously important part in American agriculture and is valued at approximately $50 billion every year. These projects will be key to providing specialty crop producers with the information and tools they need to successfully grow, process, and market safe and high-quality products." In the process of the project, Mitchell will test led high bay light on high-wire tomatoes. He believes that using LED lights on the sides of plants will increase photosynthesis and flowering, improving yield. Roberto Lopez, an assistant professor of horticulture, will work with about 20 species of bedding pla...

winners will be recognized with personalized plaques acknowledging their lighting design achievements

The Award for Environmental Design gives special recognition to projects that minimize the use of energy, maximize the use of daylighting, control light pollution, and ensure system durability and maintainability. All qualifying entrants will be invited to an awards ceremony, which will take place Monday, April 22, 2013, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA, on the evening prior to the opening of LightFair International, the world’s largest annual architectural and commercial lighting trade show and conference. At that time, all winners will be recognized with personalized plaques acknowledging their lighting design achievements. The identity of the 2012 GE Edison Award Winner will remain confidential until announced at the awards ceremony. The winner will receive a personalized Steuben crystal trophy and continued publicity throughout the following year. A distinctive plaque also will be presented to the owner of the winning installation. The products manufactured in the plant is expect...
