Display modules are the deciding factor for consumers when choosing an electronics device. Be it smartphones or computer monitors, the display quality helps determine buyers choice. The technology used in these devices are LED panels, LCDs, and TFT LCDs and more. Here, we explore the LED Panel and high-power LEDs.
What is an LED Panel ?
Latest electronic devices are screens made from high-quality LEDs that are controlled by electronic microchips. An LED Panel is designed to control components and increase or decrease light power. As a result, different light powers can be generated from each LED.
What are High Power LEDs?
High power LEDs are LEDs that have a greater throw. These are larger and consume greater amounts of electricity than conventional LEDs.
As a result, they transform the energy supplied into light and thermal energy. A routine practice in using high-powered LEDs is to keep it cool.
For cooling there is special equipment used. These high-power LEDs require advanced heat sink designs and thermal management systems to prevent overheating. High power LEDs are mostly made in1-5 watt packages. These can sometimes go up to 40 W when multi-chip lamps.
Types of LED Panel
Here are some types of LED panel modules:
P5 SMD LED module is a module made up of Surface Mounted Devices with 21 LEDs. These are mounted on a circuit board 5mm apart. The color of the LEDs is controlled by specialized ICs.
P10 LED module is used in the construction of video walls, matrix displays, and digital signage screens. The space between each LED is a pitch. The actual pitch is the spacing between each LED, is 10.
P2 flexible LED panel module. This module is made of a soft PCB board that is flexible enough to fit into any curved surface. It's ideal for use in public spaces, museums,and airports.
GOB LED display is considered a SMD LED display that has better protection features.
Some other types of LED display technology are direct-View LED displays, transparent LED displays and flexible LED Displays and organic LED Displays.
Powering High Powered LEDs
LED video walls are individual light-emitting diode (LED) modules on a frame. The modules are rectangular arrays that are monitored by an electronic controller.
There are many ways to power high-current LEDz. The most common method is the DC-DC converter with current feedback. These are power-conversion circuits that use passive, low-pass LC filters to smooth out switching action into constant voltages.
The other method to power high-powered LEDs is to monitor the voltage and current. If the voltage and current are too high for the LEDs, you will need a buck (step-down) converter. If the voltage is too low, you will need a boost (step-up) converter.
Another way is to use a power source with adequate current. Make sure your power supply can drive the amount of LEDs you plan to use.
A tried and tested method is using adequate conductors. You can use a stick of wires to manage the spacing. Connect additional power wires so no part of your circuit will be too far from the power source.
Conclusion
Whether you use an LED panel or high-powered LED you can be sure of the best lighting systems. Following the best practices in maintaining these components ensures a longer lifetime of electronics display surfaces.
In the case of high-powered LEDs, businesses can leverage a higher luminous intensity. As a result, it allows them to illuminate larger areas or provide brighter illumination. Normal LEDs have a lower power output and luminous intensity, making them better suited for decorative or indicator purposes.
