New AC/DC LED-Driver is Dimmable down to Zero and Flicker-free

TRIAC-dimmers were originally designed to dim incandescent filament lamps. The elimination of these lamp types increases the need for alternative dimming methods. The use of TRIAC-dimmers in LED-systems causes unwanted flicker, visible to the eye, due to phase modulation. This prevents linear dimming of LEDs down to zero. If existing TRIAC-Dimmers are to be used with LED-systems, a new type of LED-Driver is required.   RECOM releases with the RACT20-family a new generation of AC/DC-drivers, that can be dimmed linearly and without flicker f...
