1. Is an LED driver just a power supply?
Not exactly. Although the LED driver does provide power, it is more than just a simple power converter. It also contains complex circuits to accurately control the output voltage and current, and sometimes includes dimming, temperature protection and other functions.
-
2. Can I run an LED without a driver?
Yes, but additional circuits (such as resistors) are required to limit the current. However, this method is less efficient and difficult to maintain a stable current, which may lead to poor LED performance or shortened life.
-
3. Why do I need to program an LED driver?
Programming is usually for advanced drivers with programmable functions, such as achieving finer dimming control, color adjustment or other intelligent functions. This allows users to customize the behavior of the driver according to specific needs.
-
4. Are there LED drivers with audio output?
Some high-end LED drivers do have the ability to synchronize with audio signals and change the lighting effects to the rhythm of music. This type of driver is usually used in occasions such as entertainment lighting or stage lighting.
