Popis: | A review of various proposed schemes to increase the reliability and life span of solid-state lighting (SSL) systems is presented in this article. Since the mainstream devices employed for such lighting systems are inorganic, high-power light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which are devices characterized by their very long life, most of the questions in reliability and endurability arise from the electronic offline circuit driving the LEDs. Issues regarding the limited reliability of specific components, such as electrolytic capacitors, are introduced. Several power-?conversion configurations aimed to capacitance reduction and capacitor technology exchange are put forward as alternative solutions for implementing long-life drivers, with remarks on both their benefits and drawbacks. An extensive literature review on the topic is carried out, and some practical outcomes from recent research on offline LED driving are highlighted. |
