Diodes Introduces High Efficiency Single Winding Inductor 500V Step-Down LED Driver

Diodes Incorporated introduces the AL1678 LED driver family for non-dimmable LED retrofit bulbs that do not require universal lighting products with a power factor greater than 0.7. These 500V step-down converter LED drivers provide up to 15W of output power for a wide range of LED lighting applications, such as A/B/P and GU10 lamps, at all bus voltages, reducing total circuit material cost while ensuring high performance.

Available in an SO-7 package, the AL1678 series offers a wide range of 500V MOSFETs with different current ratings, allowing designers to choose the most suitable driver to meet the wattage and cost requirements of different bulbs.

The new driver family improves drive topology, delivers significant circuit flexibility, and provides precise constant current linearity and load regulation over a universal input range of 85VAC to 277VAC. In addition, the device reduces electromagnetic interference by using a critical conduction mode, and the efficiency is over 90%, which is more compatible with electromagnetic compatibility.

The total material cost of the AL1678 LED driver is low because no external high voltage MOSFETs and auxiliary windings are required, only a single external inductor is required. Its integrated protection features include undervoltage lockout, overtemperature protection, LED open and short circuit protection, and thermal foldback to help improve the reliability of LED retrofit lamp systems at high temperatures. The device's SO-7 package enhances electrical insulation and moisture resistance.

The new products are shipped in quantities of 10,000 and are supported by data sheets, application and design guidelines, and evaluation board user guides.

As we all known a common health risk that miners face is thermal – or heat – stress. Mining environments are often very hot and humid, overexposure to heat and humidity can cause the body to become fatigued and distressed.

Win 3 Portable Heat Stress Monitor is designed to quickly and accurately evaluate potential heat stress environments. It can be attached on the cap lamp cable or put in the pocket or even hang it some where. Thanks to its continuous temperature&relative humidity measuring, it will real time help workers to remove themselves from the overexposure enviroment.
