Introduction:As Lumens per Watt of LED is continually increasing, high brightness LEDs are widely adopted in today’s automotive lighting applications. Today, almost all interior and exterior lighting applications, even headlamps, are transitioning to LEDs.
Automotive lighting design engineers are now challenged to ensure high reliability, longer life span and optimal performance of the LEDs. An effective LED driving solution is crucial to achieving these targets. In this seminar, we will discuss the technical requirements and challenges for designing automotive LED lighting applications and how the latest PowerWise® LED solutions offered by National Semiconductor help overcome such challenges.
