Army Researchers Ask Industry for Fast LED Drivers for Pulsed-illumination Systems

U.S. Army researchers are reaching out to industry to find companies able to provide or develop a driver for LEDs that significantly improves the turn-on (rise time) and turn-off (fall time) of a pulsed-illumination system. The U.S. Army Contracting Command has issued a sources-sought notice (W911QY-13-R-0075) for the Development Of Circuitry For Improved Led Turn-On And Turn-Off program, which seeks to determine if significant improvements over an existing LED driver system are possible. The notice was released on behalf of the Army Natick Soldier System...
