Failure Analysis of a Product—Not Only a Component

By DELTA, a part of FORCE Technology - 12 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

Classic failure analysis (FA) technique generally deals with a single failed component in a complete product to detect the root cause of failure. This approach is inexpensive and less time-consuming. However, this may end up with a wrong interpretation of the product failure or overlooking the synergetic effect of different components related to the failure. This article is about a product on ... » read more

A Longer Life For LED Power Electronics

By DELTA, a part of FORCE Technology - 10 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

One of the greater challenges with LED lighting is the electronic driver’s robustness to normally occurring transients or power surges in the network. Many everyday examples have shown that the active electronics in the light sources find it hard to handle the effects in a use environment, in which incandescent bulbs and lamps with passive electronics have functioned fine for decades. A new p... » read more
