Litepanels Introduces Inca Series Tungsten Balanced LED Fresnels

Litepanels recently introduced its Inca Series tungsten balanced LED Fresnel fixtures. The new Inca LED lighting fixtures derive their name from the "incandescent" lighting fixtures they replace. Inca Fresnels incorporate LEDs that are color-matched to the incandescent tungsten halogen lighting fixtures still in use in many television stations and teleproduction facilities. The Inca Series makes it possible for a studio to change over from incandescent to LED fixtures in a staged, multi-year plan, rather than having to do so all at once.
"With our new Inca Series Fresnels, production studios can begin realizing the financial benefits of LED lighting without requiring a facility to convert to daylight balanced light fixtures," said Chris Marchitelli, Litepanels VP of global marketing. "The greatly reduced energy consumption of Litepanels LED fixtures provides an ROI of less than three years, which make them an obvious choice for any studio. Now customers have the flexibility of choosing tungsten or daylight balanced output." Designed for use with an external power switch, the SSL2109 LED driver IC provides a single design platform for 100V, 120V and 230V mains input voltages and power ranges up to 25 W. By offering a controller-only version of the popular SSL2108x family, the SSL2109 provides LED retrofit lamp and driver module manufacturers with the flexibility to optimize external MOSFET selection based on cost, performance and heat dissipation.
"By bringing down the cost of LEDs, leading lighting manufacturers are accelerating their adoption in the residential and commercial lighting markets. The SSL2109 LED controller IC offers a very low electronic bill of materials for high-efficiency LED driver applications, a very low cost of design, and flexibility in optimizing external MOSFET selection across an extremely wide range of power levels, also with cost in mind," said Ryan Zahn, general manager, lighting solutions product line, NXP Semiconductors.This document includes forward-looking statements which include statements regarding NXP's business strategy, financial condition, results of operations, and market data, as well as any other statements which are not historical facts.
