In this study, SMPS driven LED traffic signal light for Large-scale traffic such as railroad and airport was designed and its electrical and EMI characteristics were measured. The output current of the LED module driven by SMPS was 1.67A for AC and DC input voltage over 10V. The conducted emission measured over 0.15~30MHz frequency range was lower than the allowed quasi-peak and average level, and the radiated noise measured over 30~1000MHz frequency range showed $23.96dB{\mu}V/m$ at 59.96MHz.

Recently, LED (Light Emitting Diode) becomes to be useful to apply for the lightening sources in electric systems and the lightening equipment since the power is less consumed with high efficiency, and the size and the weight of LED are small and light, respectively. The LED is controlled with constant current and SMPS (Switching Mode Power Supply). It is necessary for the LED manufacturer to secure the fundamental technology of designing LED chip, and to study the methodology to improve the power factor (PF) and to design the operational circuit for the development of LED to reduce the power loss in the application of LED lightening. The direct AC (Alternating Current) LED driving circuit, HV9910, is widely used in the industry field. In this paper, it is to evaluate the improved methodology for the power factor and efficiency through simulations when PFC (Power Factor Correction) and Noise Filter are added to HV9910.

This paper deals with noise reduction on a light source driving board in a projector. We analyze causes of noise/vibration in the circuit with the present increasing use of LD and LED driving boards. The main source of noise is the MLCC in the driving board. Our aim is to investigate how the mechanical arrangement of the circuit elements affects noise reduction. The result of our experiment shows that noise can be reduced by symmetrical arrangement and slots in PCB. This result is expected to facilitate a variety of applications for manufactures without a need to change circuit elements.

Thanks to the shift in awareness of environmentally friendly energy and government initiatives, practical light-emitting diode(LED) lighting fixtures have emerged and are being distributed, resulting in very large energy savings. However, in actual use of LED lighting, it is possible to use it as an individual, but when using a large street light or a whole home lighting, the whole lighting system is realized due to various problems such as efficiency, stability, and reliability. Doing so has several problems. Although AC-LED has been developed recently to solve safety problems such as heat generation phenomenon of the conventional DC-LED, it also has various problems such as quality safety and reliability, which are difficult to use as outdoor lighting using existing AC Power. This happens. Accordingly, the appropriate power for AC-LED should be developed and applied, and the emergence of such LED lighting will play a role as a tool that can overcome the limitations of existing LED lighting and implement sustainable energy saving.

In this paper, we have studied to minimize the lifetime and fault occurrence of LED fixtures, which have a short lifetime and frequent faults. In the current LED chip, the lifetime is semi-permanent, but compared to the lifetime of the LED chip, Drivers do not last long. In recent years, low-priced LED illuminators such as those from China have entered the market, and many consumers are perceiving LED illuminators. In order to solve these problems, we designed an LED illuminator of 25W class by using AC Direct IC, which has a longer lifetime than the conventional driver, by removing the electrolytic capacitor in the LED driving driver which is the cause of the failure.

There have been sustained developments of advanced technologies using traffic safety facilities recently and techniques for identifying failure modes and devices which could result in fatal outcomes. The purpose of this research is aimed at improving the driving conditions in advance through analyzing the IT convergence, driving education, researches for vehicles, field of construction and robotics. The researchers evaluate on usability tests of the driving with 26 candidates through focusing on safety, convenience, efficiency, effectiveness. Using specialized LED panel to enhance driving performances of disabled people are for cautious road conditions like foggy weather or heavy rain. As a result, there were improvements in the driving conditions, and candidates reported this system was helpful. It allows them for maintaining proper driving all times and was especially informative for people with low vision or visually impaired. This system plays a pivotal role as a prevention mechanism not only for regular drivers but also for further delict of traffic violations or accident offenders who already have former record on tort.

The pulse width modulation(PWM) method has been generally used as conventional method controlling luminance of LED(light emitting diode). PWM method as analog method with a relation that duty ratio of LED be proportional to luminance has weak point that it is not compatible with digital method of communication etc. In this paper, a experiment is conducted which the luminance of RGB LED be controlled by digital method. For this, the LED digital control system is developed which consist of LED driving circuits and digital logic circuits. By controlling the number of pluses on RGB LED versus digital input, various lighting colors is implemented and digital codes are optimized in order that measured x, y chromaticity coordinates of lighting colors are comprised in the CIE chromaticity coordinates area of targeted lighting colors. The result of this study can be utilized usefully in research on implementing full color by using remote control of LED lamp with digital communication.

The heat temperature of a light emitting diode (LED) is investigated with the thermoelectric device (TED). The Peltier effect of the thermoelectric device is used to control the heat radiation and the junction temperature of high-power LEDs. For the typical specific current (350 mA) of high-power (1 W) LEDs, the LED temperature and the p-n junction temperature become $64.5^{\circ}C$ and $79.1^{\circ}C$, respectively. For 0.1~0.2 W driving power of TED, the LED temperature and the junction temperature are reduced to be $54.2^{\circ}C$ and $68.9^{\circ}C$, respectively. As the driving power of the TED increases over 0.2 W, the temperature of LED itself and the junction temperature are increased due to the heat reversed from the heat-sink to LED. As the difference of temperature between LED and the heat-sink is increased, the quantity of reversed heat becomes larger and it results to degrade the cooling capability of TED.
