LED drive IC market is hot, three major technology trends become focus

According to the market dynamics, the LED-driven IC market is currently in 2013, showing the situation that old manufacturers are expanding and new manufacturers are actively dividing the market. Due to the strong demand for LED bulbs and LED lamps, there are quite a number of manufacturers competing for the LED driver IC from ACtoDC, DCtoDC and other categories, and there are many new and old products. At present, in the international market, Texas Instruments LED driver IC has high market visibility. Europe and the United States, including NXP, Marvell and other companies, have also launched many LED driver IC products. However, IC design companies in Asia also actively entered into the market in 2013 because they are optimistic about the development of the LED lighting market, including the layout and planning of gathering, Lixin, angbao, silili and hongguandian to enter this market. Silicon Power, an analog IC factory in mainland China, has also received orders for LED lighting driver IC from Philips, NVC and Yiguang manufacturers. LED lighting driver IC launched by hongguandian in 2013 specializes in industrial lighting and commercial lighting markets and applies for certification from Japanese and American manufacturers. The accumulation continues to be in the high-resolution digital Kanban market, but it also introduces related LED driver IC products to the LED lighting market. In addition, Daxin Electronics' LED lighting driver IC has also entered the markets of mainland China, India and other countries, and has newly developed a dimming driver IC, which allows users to directly use mobile phones and flat panels to dimmer LED lights, to meet the needs of the market. Technology trend the choice of LED driver IC solution is very important. In 2013, the market mainly focused on these trends and key points: 1. LED driver IC has the advantages of large output current and effective EMI reduction. 2. The design of the new generation of LED driver IC tries to adopt constant power, while the common isolated and non-isolated LED applications in the past will have different supporters in the LED driver IC market. 3. Low power (That is 0. 5 W-3 W)LED light source (LED wafer) , With LED driver IC, integrated into CMC package, this new design has become one of the market focuses in 2013. There is also a trend in the direction of highly integrated multi-chip packaging, plus alternating current (AC) Direct driving of luminous LED components, these technologies make the cost and stability of LED lighting have different results from the past. The results of LED driver IC in 2013 are one of the reasons why LED lighting products can be more stable and have lower cost than before.
