What Type of LED Driver or Power Supply Do I Need?
There are several different kinds of external dimmable LED drivers, but they can be broken down into two main types in the market: constant current (CC) drivers and constant voltage (CV) drivers. SMARTS manufacture Selectable Multi-current LED drivers from 10w to 60w, current from 100ma to 2100ma costant current power supply, and 6w to 360w led drivers. Depending on the application, LEDs can be connected in series and/or parallel configurations. Obviously, when LEDs are connected in series the forward voltage drop of each LED in the string are additive. For example, if you put 10 LEDs in series and each…
