1.LEDHistory

For150yearslightingtechnologywasmainlylimitedtoincandescence,fluorescence,orarcdischarge.However,energyefficienciesoftheseconventionalsourceshaveessentiallyreachedapeakofroughly25%(75%ofenergyconsumedisheat),withincandescentlightingachievinganefficiencyoflessthan2%.WiththeadventofcommercialLEDsinthe1960s,however,adoortoanewandexcitingformoflightingtechnologywasopened.Fromthebeginning,researchersrealizedthatLEDshaveatheoreticalpotentialtoexceedtheefficiencyofconventionalsources.

2.TechnologyOverview

(1)WhiteLightGeneration

AsingleLEDcanonlyproduceasinglecolor,specificallyred,green,blue,amber,oryellow.ToproducethewhitelightitisnecessarytoconvertlightfromanLEDtolightspanningthevisiblespectruminsomefashion.Toattainthis,threeapproachesareusedforgeneratingwhitelight:Wavelengthconversion;Colormixing;andmostrecentlyHomoepitaxialZnSe.

WavelengthconversioninvolvesconvertingsomeoralloftheLED'soutputintovisiblewavelengths.Methodsusedtoaccomplishthisfeatinclude:

(a)BlueLED&yellowphosphor-Consideredtheleastexpensivemethodforproducingwhitelight.BluelightfromanLEDisusedtoexciteaphosphorwhichthenre-emitsyellowlight.Thisbalancedmixingofyellowandbluelightsresultsintheappearanceofwhitelight.

(b)BlueLED&severalphosphor-Similartotheprocessinvolvedwithyellowphosphors,exceptthateachexcitedphosphorre-emitsadiferentcolor.Similarly,theresultinglightiscombinedwiththeoriginatingbluelighttocreatewhitelight.Theresultinglight,however,hasaricherandbroaderwavelengthspectrumandproducesahighercolorqualitylight,albeitatanincreasedcost.

Thisisanemergingtechnology,thatpromisestoexceedanyofthephosphortechnologiesinefficiencyandcolorcontrol.

(e)ColormixinginvolvesutilizingmultipleLEDsinadeviceandvaryingtheintensityofeachLEDtoproducewhitelight,orbyconfiguringthedevicewithamixofLEDcolorstocreateadesiredwhitebalancewithoutcontrol.Asnophosphorsareused,thereisnoenergylostintheconversionprocess,therebyexhibitingthepotentialforhigherefficacyatsomepointinthefuture.However,inthenearfuture,whiteLEDsusingblueorvioletLEDsandphosphorcoating,arethemostpopoularwaytogeneratewhitelight.Incolormixing,colorrenderingnearthatofincandescentandday-lightingcanbeachievedbyahybridsystemusingRed,Green,Blue,Amber,andaWhiteLEDs.Asmanyas7colorscanbeusedtoreproduceexceptionallygoodwhitecolorbalance,usingRed,Red-orange,Amber,Green,Cyan,Blue,andIndigo.However,themoreLEDsused,thegreaterthecomplexityoftheproduct,thusahighertheexpense.Theseblendedcolorsystemsallofferthecapacitytoadjustwhitebalancemanuallyorautomatically,usingmicroprocessors,creatingasystemthannoconventionalsourcecanequal.

(2)LEDComponents

LEDsthemselvesarecalLEDdie,andtheyaremadejustlikeanyothermicro-chipdevice,inwafers.FromthesewafersindividualLEDsarecutawayusinglasersandplacedindeviceswithhighlyspecializedroboticdevices.EachLEDdieisaboutthediameterofathinmechanicalpencillead,andthinnerthanahumanhair,andproducesalimitedaboutoflightbyitself.InSSLapplications,aseveralLEDsareplacedclosetogetherinapackagetocombinetheiroutputtocreateilluminatingeffects.Thesesmallclustersareintegratedcircuits,likememorychipsinacomputer,andpackagedinsomeway-eitherintoachip,orinsideanenclosurewithanopticalcovering-withelectricalcontactpoints.Thesepackagesarethensolderedtocircuitboards,orstrips,whichareinstalLEDinlightingproducts.Unlikestandardlamps,circuitboardscarryingLEDscanbeconfiguredeasilytosuitvirtuallyanyconfiguration,shapeorenclosure.

AllSSLproductsrequireanelectronicdriverdevice.ThisisusuallyseparateoftheLEDcircuitboard,andconvertsthebuildingenergytoelectricalcharacteristicstheLEDdevicesrequiretoproducelight.Twocoremethodsofcontrolareused:Currentcontrol,andVoltageControl.

Onecontrolshowmuchenergypassesthroughthedevice,allowingvoltagetovaryupordowntomaintainoperation.Theothercontrolsthevoltagebyregulatinghowmuchenergyispassingthroughthedevice.Thesearenotinterchangeable,andarematchedtotheLEDorSSLpackagebeingpowered.LEDdevicesaregenerallyDCcurrent,whichmeansanadditionalconversionfromthebuilding’sACcurrentisincludedinthedriverdevices.

DimmingofanLEDsourceisnotassimpleasdimmingincandescentsources,butismoreeffectivethanfluorescentdimminginbothcolorandintensitycontrol.

AcommonmethodusedisPulseWidthModulation(PWM).

ThisisaccomplishedbyoperatingtheLEDsatahighfrequency,withmanypulsesasecondthatareconstantwhenthedeviceisatfullbrightness.

AdjustingthewidthofthepulseswillreducethenumberofelectronspassingthroughtheLED,reducingitslightoutput.Mixingcolorsisaccomplishedby“dimming”eachindividualcolorindependentlytoachieveadesiredbalance-whichcanrangefromonecolor(allothersdimmedoff)towhite(allcolorsbalancedandfullbrightness.)Otherdimmingschemes,includingcurrentlimiting,voltageregulation,etc.areeffectiveincontrolofintensitylevels.
