Design Considerations

Texas Instruments provides a broad portfolio of high-performance products for your LED design needs. From RF and power management (including AC/DC, Power Factor Correction, DC/DC and linear power conversion) to DSPs and ultra-low-power MCUs, TI has products to differentiate your design. And, TI's local support and applications expertise can help you get to market faster.

Solutions for your lighting challenges:

Precision channel-to-channel and chip-to-chip accuracy to create the best hue and luminance in your RGB message boards and video displays
Small footprint, highest efficiency, programmable LED or OLED backlight controllers
Blinking low-power LEDs to act as indicators in an automotive display or in a casino game
Controllers to power and dim high brightness white or RGB LEDs for architectural luminaries and portable lighting
Powering arrays of HB LEDs off an AC source for use in street lighting and replacing high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps
Highly integrated ZigBee transceivers and SoC solutions for wireless lighting control and home automation

LED Reference Design Cookbook - Download the new LED Reference Design Cookbook that is designed to provide you with a valuable tool to help you solve your lighting design needs. The LED Reference Design Cookbook features lighting reference designs for multiple applications.
