Anything about LED driver circuits, i.e. circuits designed to provide light emitting diodes (LEDs) the appropriate power for their reliable operation.

LEDs are current-driven devices, so a LED driver is most often some kind of constant-current source (or an approximation thereof). A LED driver can be as simple as a single resistor, or can be a complicated circuit (maybe integrated) employing DC-DC conversion techniques and protection features against various overload conditions.

Q&A Driving LED with NPN transistor from I/O pin

I'm trying to understand a circuit for driving a LED found on a board I purchased. Below is the circuit driven by an I/O pin (HS2) of a small 3.3V processor. The HS2 pin is driven by the I/O wi...

Q&A LED with a parallel resistor

It is common to have a series resistor to limit the current trough an LED. I saw a circuit using the LED driver: stp16cpc26. but instead having the series resistor, they are in parallel. This LED...

Q&A Name of this current limiting device

I'm trying to modify a LED torch, and there is a DC-DC booster (1.5 V to 3.3 V) and after that some SOT-23 device which (I assume) keeps constant 90 mA current through LED. I know I could remove th...
