EINDHOVEN, THE NETHERLANDS, Jan 26, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- NXP Semiconductors N.V. NXPI +1.41% today announced the availability of several new LED driver ICs in its SSL2108x family for compact, non-dimmable retrofit lamps, following the success of the SSL21081. With the addition of the SSL21082, SSL21083 and SSL21084, NXP now provides a single platform for lamp designers developing for 100V - 120V and 230V mains voltages, as well as all power ranges up to 25 W. Based on GreenChip(TM) technology, the SSL2108x family has been optimized for non-isolated topologies with high output voltages, and for applications in which compatibility with triac dimmers is not required.
Compact, non-dimmable LED lamps are growing in popularity, particularly in markets such as Japan, The SSL2108x family offers a best-in-class solution for these markets, with a high level of efficiency (up to 95% as measured on reference boards); a high level of integration (enabling easy design-in of a full application with only 14 components and a very small PCB area of 18 x 22 mm); and a very low electronic bill of materials (eBoM). The NXP SSL2108x family of devices also delivers tight LED current regulation (better than 5%); a full set of protections, including built-in LED temperature protection via input from an NTC temperature sensor; and an integrated MOSFET.
NXP will showcase the SSL2108x family at Strategies in Light in Santa Clara, California from February 7-9, 2012 (booth 511).

Mouser – Versatile LED drivers serve backlighting
Atmel LED Drivers are system-centric, mixed-signal LED driver ICs which are now available from Mouser stock.
The devices serve the broad-based and rapidly growing backlighting and solid-state lighting markets with applications that include LCD TVs, PC monitors, specialty panels (industrial, military, medical, avionics, etc.), and general illumination.
The drivers utilize a proprietary and patented combination of analog and digital circuit techniques. Additionally, by delivering a system-centric approach, these advanced devices provide solutions for local and global dimming, power management, signal conditioning, and smart interfacing. This allows electronic equipment manufacturers to significantly enhance product features, while improving power efficiency, reliability, and cost/performance.

Rear window LED panel
People use all sorts of ways of expressing their feelings and emotions when behind the wheel. However, the automotive industry hasn’t exactly paid attention to these kind of needs over the years, so when you buy a car, you don’t get any communication tools, other than the barbarian lights and horn.
However, one motorist called Gandeep Singh has come up with a solution that will help you rely on more than just your fingers for non-verbal, in-car communication.
The man has fitted his VW Polo with a 40;x16; LED panel, placed on the back window, which he uses for sending messages to others. As you can see in the adjacent video, the toy currently uses a set of limited standard messages, which are extremely politically correct. However, he is working on a Bluetooth phone connection, which could allow him to display whatever he wants. We feel some road rage messages coming.
