Dimming

Amplitude Dimming Hybrid Dimming

Helvar hybrid dimming products combine the best features from Constant Current Reduction (CCR) dimming and from Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) dimming. CCR is a very efficient technique for dimming the light output especially on higher range. On lower range, the hybrid dimming products implement high-frequency PWM dimming to ensure high quality dimming from 20 % down to 1 %.Amplitude dimming offers the current reduction dimming on whole range for dimming the light output in an accurate and flick-er-free way to ensure high quality lighting in even the most demanding situations such as camera recording applications. Am-plitude dimming technology complies with IEEE 1789-2015 recommendations of current modulation to mitigate health risks to viewers.

Installation & operation

Maximum tc temperature:

• Reliable operation and lifetime is only guaranteed if themaximum tc point temperature is not exceeded under theconditions of use

• Ensure that the tc point temperature does not rise higherthan specified on the product datasheets.

Current setting resistor

LED drivers featuring a constant current output adjustable via current setting resistor or software.

• An external resistor can be inserted in to the current setting terminal, allowing the user to adjust the LED driver output current

• When no external resistor is connected, then the LED drivers will operate at their default lowest current level

• A standard through-hole resistor can be used for the current setting. To achieve the most accurate output current it is recommended to select a quality low tolerance resistor. Minimum diameter for resistor leg is 0.51mm.

• Specific resistor/current values are presented on page 3.
