Today we are going to look into a very high efficiency resonant-mode off-line LED driver circuit. It is based on a very popular Infineon article which uses the IRS2530D DIM8 controller IC. Normally electronic ballast technology is used for old fluorescent tube lights, but here Infineon used the same concept to drive high power LEDs […]

Simple 220V RGB LED Bulb Circuit for Christmas, Diwali Decoration
In this post I will explain this 220V RGB slow fading LED bulb circuit step by step and we can start from the left side and slowly move toward the right side so that you can understand what each block is doing. We use many parts like 555, 4017, 33uF, D1 to D4, and others […]
How to Add a Dimmer Facility to a LED Bulb
In this article I have explained how to make an LED dimmer circuit for enabling a dimming facility to any mains operated LEDs bulb. Update: [Using Capacitors, it Works] If you think PWM dimming control might not work for commercial LED bulbs, then the best method is to use series capacitors, which might just do […]
Simplest 100 Watt LED Bulb Circuit
In this article I have explained a very simple 100 watt LED bulb circuit using a few high voltage capacitors. The entire circuit could be built at a cost less than $25. I have already discussed many capacitive type of transformerless power supply circuits in this blog, however all these suffers from a couple of […]
How to Make Car LED Bulb Circuit
Typically all car turn signal lamps are around 12 to 20 watt rated which are traditionally incandescent bulb types and produce much lower light intensities compared to LED lights. Here I have explained how these lamps can be replaced with high efficiency, high intensity car LED bulbs. LED Car Bulb Design The image below shows […]
Operating Single Rice Bulb Lamp with 220V AC
In this post I have explained a simple 220V mains operated transformerless single rice bulb power supply circuit, which may be used for illuminating electronic rice lamp diyas replacing traditional oil lamp type diyas during festivals or for decorating sacred idols. The idea was requested by Ms. Rashmi. Technical Specifications I want to make a rice […]
