    DN83 LED MR16 Lamp solution using the ZXLD1350 LED driver Neil Chadderton, Colin Davies, Roger Heap, Zetex Semiconductors Introduction Lighting class LEDs are now available that deliver the brightness, efficacy, lifetime, color temperature, and white point stability required for general illumination. As a result, these LEDs are being adopted into most general lighting applications including roadway, parking area and indoor directional lighting. LED-based luminaires reduce Total-Cost-of-Ownership (TCO) in these applications through maintenance avoidance and reduced energy costs. MR16 lamps are one variety of Multifaceted Reflector (MR) lamps that have traditionally employed a halogen filament capsule as the light source. They are used in many retail and consumer lighting applications where their size, configurability, spot-lighting capability and aesthetics provide utility and creativity. Their low efficiency, heat generation (an issue for illuminating heat sensitive subjects and materials) and halogen capsule handling issues are typically cited among the disadvantages of the technology. They typically operate from 12V AC or 12V DC, though designs for 6V to 24V are also popular and as such require a step-down transformer to allow use from offline supplies. This is usually effected with conventional electromagnetic or electronic transformers. With the advancement of HB (High Brightness) LED technologies, MR16 lamps can now be realized with an alternate light source. This hybrid solution can yield a cost effective, long-life, maintenance free, cooler operating unit which has not been previously possible.

  • A Guide to Lamps for Recessed Lighting Jeanine Chrobak-Kando, Business
    A guide to lamps for recessed lighting Jeanine Chrobak-Kando, Business Development Manager, LED EUMEA, Verbatim The idea of a recessed light, or downlight, that has a near-flush fit to a ceiling or other surface, is perhaps perceived as a relatively recent phenomenon. But it was an American, Ivan Kirlin (b.1863, d.1940) who first introduced recessed lights back in the 1930s. The company he founded in 1895, Kirlin Lighting, is still in business today. Recessed lights consist of a trim, the visible part of the light, and the housing, or fixture, which is sometimes called the lamp holder. The fixture is fitted into the ceiling or other surface. Recessed fixtures are used for background and task lighting and there are now many different types as a result of technology development, regulatory requirements and evolving consumer preferences. At the same time, light sources, reflectors and lenses specifically suited for recessed fixtures have been developed. The parabolic aluminised reflector (PAR) lamp Lamps for recessed lighting need to direct the light if most of it is not to be wasted going up into the ceiling. The first and most common way of controlling the width of the light beam was by integrating a parabolic aluminized reflector (PAR) into the lamp. Early PAR lamps used incandescent light sources and usually had screw fittings, most commonly E14 or E27. Later PAR lamps used halogen light sources, often with GU10 bases. The socket types are shown (not to actual size) in Figure 1. The tendency for early halogen light sources to explode upon failure meant that glass covers were needed on either the lamps or the fixtures as a safety precaution.
