Efficiency in LED drivers

ITACOIL collaborates with electronic designers developing magnetic parts for a better result in SMPS projects.

The use of standard integrated transformers allow to easily address the LED lighting sector’s needs.

In the last years we have invested in providing customers with the opportunity to realize their projects with the minimum design effort.

The need for high efficiency in power supply systems for LED lighting and in general the increasing demand for energy efficiency, both for operating economy and for compliance with the recent regulations on energy efficiency, has prompted a reevaluation of LLC and LCC resonant topologies in recent years.

The major active component manufacturers on the SMPS market have included in their catalogues efficient chips that allow, with a low complexity level, to realize SMPSs with 94-96% (and beyond) efficiency and less EMI problems, compared to other topologies. All this thanks to the “Zero Voltage Switching” and to the almost sinusoidal high frequency currents.
