    LED specific voltage for specific wavelength

    Very interesting. In the datasheet it shows that the peak current is 900mA, does that mean that 700mA is already with the safety? With a constant current driver, does it mean the voltage will automatically adjust to its optimal levels? Can i measure the voltage drop exactly when i turn on the...

    LED specific voltage for specific wavelength

    LED driver 100w 4.3amp 24v(11$) LED constant current driver 700mA DC6-50v 35w(9$) LEDs: 700ma 2.0-2.4v 3.0-3.4v 3.6-4.0v using the first driver i could divide 4.3amps into 6 parallel circuits of 716mA and drive 12 LEDs at 2.0v at one circuit. Is this correct? Do i calculate the amount of LEDs...

    LED specific voltage for specific wavelength

    i think i misuderstood. dedicated you meant specifically designed for LEDs? :)o the 640 to 660 does it depend on a batch made? some LEDs will draw 3volts and some 3.4v?

    LED specific voltage for specific wavelength

    there definitely will be a heatsink So the 640 to 660 it merely depends on a batch made? so some LEDs will draw 3volts and some 3.4v? dedicated supply could you please write me a few words on how it works? does it choose the needed voltage itself? It seems like a good idea if i do not have to...

    LED specific voltage for specific wavelength

    SO. There are two ways to do it: i got 14 LEDs(x3.4v=47.6volts) in series my power supply is 48volts. target wavelength is 660nm 1. choose the current through it by putting a resistor in series with it and then varying the supply voltage - how do i vary a supply voltage if i got 14 of them...

    LED specific voltage for specific wavelength

    Hello I am trying to design a precise circuit for LEDs. I have a datasheet from a manufacturer and it says an LED is capable of running 3.0v at 640nm and 3.4v at 660nm. Is there a way to tailor the power (voltage) so that the LED will run exactly or at least approximately at 3.0v or 3.4v...

    Choosing the Best Material for a Transparent Casing for Neodymium Magnets

    Thank you for the welcome, i always wanted to join the physics forum, i finally had a reason to do it. I sincerely thank you for your answer. What is the thickness of plastic that will effect the field of the magnet? It is a disc 2 inches diameter and 1 inch thick.

    Choosing the Best Material for a Transparent Casing for Neodymium Magnets

    Hello I am building a casing for Neodymium Magnet. I don't want to shield the power of the magnet in any way, and I want the casing to be strong. What is the best material that i can use? It also has to be transperant. Will plastic effect the magnetic field and by how much. Will the...
