Zetex released a new MR16 compatible LED spotlights dedicated chipset

Zetex Semiconductors (Zetex) company, developed a MR16 compatible LED lamp new chip group and a reference design. The chip group can reduce the number of components of the existing solution by as much as 50%, greatly reduce the size and weight of the printed circuit board of the lamp neck part, and reduce the overall production cost of the lamp device.

This highly integrated MR16 chipset provides all the relevant power rectifier, LED current control and protection functions. MR16 is the standard format of halogen reflector lamp, which has been widely used in various home, retail or office environment. Different types of electrical equipment made of LED are significantly improved both in terms of efficiency and reliability.

Zetex vice president of Asia intelligent application of special product marketing department Hu Guangfa said: "after this chipset optimization and highly robust and durable, fully meet the needs of the MR16 application, also confirms the importance of Zetex in lighting technology on the market. Customers often reflect to us, the market MR16 LED spotlights in terms of efficiency is not perfect, the production is not easy. Therefore, we decided to adopt a customized strategy from the top down, the development of customers to meet the real needs of the optimization of products. "

Hu Guangfa continued: environmental protection is another important factor to switch to MR16 compatible LED spotlights. LED lamp life is generally five times longer than other halogen lamps, while saving energy, but also to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in household and commercial buildings. Instead of conventional halogen lamps, each LED lamp can reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions by one tonne in its life cycle. "

Zetex partner CREE XLamp LED product marketing director Paul Thieken said: "over the years, we have been working with Zetex to maintain a close cooperation, believe that as long as the new chip is combined with our LED products, will be able to MR16 compatible type lighting equipment manufacturers bring perfect and complete solutions to meet today's strict technical application request. "

Zetex another customer civilight Shenzhen Semiconductor Lighting Co. Ltd. global market development director Pan Rurong pointed out: "in the production process of MR16 compatible LED spotlight, we need to improve the use of the electronic control solutions. Zetex provides a simple and easy to make solution, so that we can focus on the thermal and optical performance optimization of MR16 products. "
