Webcast: LEDs are relatively simple, inherently dimmable devices. The tricky part is making sure that your new solid-state lighting design is compatible with the existing base of dimming switches which were designed for now-obsolete incandescent lighting. EDN's panel of experts in power management for... more

Webcast: Smart, efficient energy power systems - such as those in the server racks at a data farm or a telecom facility -- will increasingly rely on digital power management to gauge the environment, health and most of all, the efficiency of large power installations. The architecture for digital power can... more

Webcast: Current through an LED affects both the lifetime and light output of the LED. This webinar discusses the trade-offs involved in selecting drive currents and discuss methods for controlling and dimming. Join EDN Technical Editor Margery Conner for a webinar panel discussion featuring senior... more

Webcast: A key ability in ensuring energy efficiency the ability to measure power right where it's used. Smart power meters are finding uses far beyond the utility power meter - they're being embedded in power supplies at the point-of-use. Accuracy, calibration, and communications capability are just a few... more
